It is a very common, though normally temporary,(1) of a breakup,divorce, or loss of any important log-term relationship. In these cases,loneliness may result both from the loss of a specific person and from the (2)from social circles. The loss of a significant person in one's life will typically initiate a(n)(3) response.Loneliness may also result from any socially disruptive(破裂的)event, suchas moving from one's home town into (4) communities leading to homesickness. Loneliness can also occur in places with low population densities in which there are comparatively few people to (5).There are many different ways used to (6) loneliness. What most doctors recommend to patients is therapy. Short term therapy typically occurs overa period of ten to twenty weeks. During therapy,(7) is put on understanding the cause of the problem, reversing the negative thoughts, feelings,and attitudes resulting from the problem, and (8) ways to help thepatient feel connected. Some doctors also recommend(9) therapy as a means to connect with other sufferers and establish a support system. Somepatients may also develop a resistance to a certain type of medication and need to (10) periodically.Another treatment is animal-assisted therapy. Studies and surveys indicatethat the (11) of animal companions can (12) feelings ofloneliness or depression among some sufferers.

There are a number of other health benefits associated with pet ownership, such as lowered blood pressure. In addition, some other (14)approaches may include exercise, dieting, etc, which many patients find have a (15) effect on relieving symptoms. Results of a study also suggest that correcting maladaptive social cognition (认知)offers the best chance of (16)loneliness.(17), loneliness can sometimes play an important role in the (18)process. Temporary or prolong loneliness can sometimes lead to notable artisticand creative (19), for example, as was the case with poet Emily Dickinson.

The Sentiero Azzurro connects the villages between Monterosso al Mare and Riomaggiore over 12km and will take you from shady copses sheltered by red-and gold-leafed trees lo deep green olive groves before you emerge into sunlit walkways with views of the shimmering sea. However, some of the route is closed at present ( most famously the Via del' A more at Riomaggiore,reopening in 2019)duo to landslides, and in autumn there are often closures aswet weather damages paths. On some sections there's a charge if 5 -7 lo use the path--the money helps with repair bills.Finnish LaplandA cycling trip in Finland, north of the Arctic Circle, in September is incredibly colourful. Autumn is one of the eight seasons for the indigenous Sami people: time to round up their free-roaming reindeer. The Finnish word for autumn colour is ruska: it's the time when silver birches turn gold, the forest floor becomes thick with jewel-coloured blueberries and lingonberries, and mountain ashis heavy with scarlet berries. All this is set against a backdrop of evergreen firs, the taiga stretching from Norway to Siberia, and the silver of Finland's 180,000 lakes, soon to turn white with ice and snow. The midnight sky joins in too, illuminated with the greens and reds of the northern lights.Dolgoch ‘ rainforest ' , north WalesSnowdonia national park provides some of the richest, and most unspoilt autumnal views in the world. The Talyllyn Railway spoils visitors not just with a seven-mile journey from the Tywyn seafront up the beautiful Fathew valley towards the peak of Cader Idris oil steam trains, but also gives direct access to the autumnal majesty of the Dolgoch Falls and Nant Gwernol woodland. Alighting atDolgoch station and following the waymarked trails, visitors are soon amid the valley's temperate rainforest habitat, sometimes referred to as the Celtic Rainforesl, surrounded by ancient trees and carpets of moss and ferns. Thishabitat is full of life and, in autumn, the landscape glows in lush greens and golden browns.Kamikochi national park, HonshuIn central Honshu, three hours' drive north-east of Nagoya, is one of themost beguiling places in the Japanese Alps (also called the Hida mountains). The mountain slopes are covered with forests of larch and beech that blaze scarlet and orange in the autumn. Wisps of smoke hang in the still air above Yakedake volcano,and the glass surface of Taisho Pond perfectly reflects the trees and snow-dusted mountains. There are well-signposted walking trails, and the climb offers spectacular views across the valleys. We stayed in the Konashidaira log cabins( cabin for four people from £ 60 a night, on Facebook) in woods close to the river Azusa, and which we shared with families of macaques that swung from tree to tree above us. You can bathe at the public hot spring baths in the nearby hotels.(1)If you'd like to go to a place that has not been changed or built on, thebest choice is .A. Cinque Terre, ItalyB. Finnish LaplandC. Dolgoch ‘ rainforest ' , north WalesD. Kamikochi national park, Honshu(2)From the four advertisements above, we know that a visitor will mostprobably .A. sense the explosion of colours freely in Cinque TerreB. cycle to enjoy both the forest floor and mountain ashC. feel tired because of the long journey on steam trainsD. walk on the glass surface of Taisho Pond elegantly18.(★★★)The first of two new museums dedicated to Yves Saint Laurent has been opened in Paris, offering a glimpse into the world of the shy, mysterious man who revolutionised women's fashion.The Paris mansion where Saint Laurent shook up dress codes for more than three decades has been turned into an exhibition space for his haute couturecreations. A larger museum, also paid for by the foundation set up by his late lover and business partner Pierre Berge to safeguard Saint Laurent's legacy, opens next month in Marrakesh.The Moroccan city was one of the couple's favourite places, where SaintLaurent would often sketch out his collections."Coco Chanel liberated women, but Yves Saint Laurent gave them power,"Berg6once said. He did this by appropriating the symbols of the traditional male wardrobe-dinner jackets, safari suits and jumpsuits-and remarking them for women. "I had noticed men were much more confident in their clothes," said SaintLaurent, who died in 2008, in a rare interview. " So I sought through trouser suits, trench coats, tuxedos and pea coats lo give women the same confidence. " His black tuxedo for women, known as le smoking-often worn over bare flesh-caused a scandal in 1966, with the New York socialite Nan Kempner dropping her trousers when she was told by a Manhattan restaurant that women would not be admitted in such attire.Saint Laurent would later design a jacket as a thigh-skimming mini dress justas Kempner, one of his best customers, had worn it.The heart of the Paris museum is Saint Laurent's studio, the inner sanctum where he would work night and day in the run-up to his shows. It remains just ashe left it in 2002, his desk festooned with photos of his inner circle of glamorous female friends, including Catherine Deneuve, Bianca Jagger and Paloma Picasso. But pride of place goes to a New Year's card he made from a painting byhis friend Andy Warhol of his French bulldog Moujik.One wall of the room is completely mirrored, which allowed Saint Laurent to work directly on his live models so he could see his creations from all angles as they progressed.The museum offers insight into Saint Laurent's creative process, showing howhe developed his clothes from basic sketches into complex designs that, in thecase of some of his haute couture creations, could take thousands of hours to make. "Unlike many other designers, Saint Laurent began systematically archiving his work in the early 1960s-encouraged by Berge-and so we can follow the evolution of each item," said a spokesman for the museum, which holds 5 ,000 prototypes forhis creations.Other rooms in the museum are given over to Saint Laurent's inspiration and the "imaginary voyages" his collections often look to Asia, Africa and most famously Russia. But other than his sojourns in Morocco-which reminded him of Algeria,where he was born in 1936 when it was a French colony-the designer was not much ofa travellor.With Berg6he built up a considerable art collection and he borrowed liberally from artists such as Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse and Vincent van Gogh, most famously with his Mondrian dress, which became an instant pop icon when it hit the catwalk in 1965.Berge always believed that Saint Laurent, who began his career by steppinginto the shoes of Christian Dior when he was 21, was nothing less than an exceptional artist, calling him " the greatest designer of the second half of the 20th century".Having "spent all my life helping Yves Saint Laurent build his work, which I want to last", Berge died this month before he could see the museums opened. The American landscape artist Madison Cox, whom Berge married this summer,told AFPthat "10days before he died he told me that ‘I am going to die totally at peace',and I think that was true. He was a very determined man and he had put everythingin place."Cox said the museum were also a tribute to Berge's work supporting andprotecting the fragile Saint Laurent, who had drink and drug addictions."Of course I and the whole team are profoundly sad that he will not be here,"said Cox, who now heads the charitable foundation." But he would have wantedthat we go on. "(1)The main contribution that Yves Saint Laurent made was that .A. He established a new trend toward women's fashionB. he made major changes to women's clothing stylesC. he made women more powerful by remaking female; symbolsD. women wearing the clothes he tailored became more confident(2)Which of the following is FALSE according to the passage?A. Some of his works were so unconventional as caused controversy.B. His creations were watched from all angles with a mirror in the room.C. Some haute couture creations took a lol more time to be developed.D. He valued a New Year's card more than photos festooning his desk.(3)In what aspect did Pierre Berge help Yves Saint Laurent?A. Saint was advised to travel to foreign countries to seek inspiration.B. Berge firmly believed that Saint could become an outstanding designer.C. Saint was encouraged to build up a large collection of 5,000prototypes.D. Berge worked to protect Saint from being drunk and addicted to drugs.19.(★★★)Neuroscientists have explained the risky, aggressive or just plain confusing behavior of teenagers as the product of a brain that is somehow compromised. Groundbreaking research in the past 10 years, however, shows that this view is wrong. The teen brain is not defective(有缺陷的). It is not a half-baked adult brain, either. It has been forged by evolution lo functiondifferently from that of a child or an adult.Foremost among the teen brain's features is its ability to change in responseto the environment by modifying the communication networks that connect brain regions. It allows teenagers to make enormous in thinking and socialization. But the change also makes them sensitive to dangerous behavior and serious mental disorders.The most recent studies indicate that the riskiest behavior arises from a mismatch between the maturation of networks in the limbic system(边缘系统), which drives emotions and intensifies at (青春期), and the maturation of networks in the prefrontal cortex (前额皮质), which occurs later and promotes sound judgment and the control of impulses. Indeed, we now know that one's prefrontal cortex continues to change prominently until his 20s. And yet puberty seems to starling earlier, extending the "mismatch years".The plasticity of networks linking brain regions-and not the growth of those regions, as previously thought-is key to eventually behaving like anadult. Understanding that, and knowing that a widening gap between the development of emotional and judgment networks is happening in young people today,can help parents, teachers, counselors and teenagers themselves. People willbetter see that behavior such as risk-taking, sensation-seeking, and turning away from parents and toward peers are not signs of cognitive or emotionalproblems. They are a natural result of brain development, a normal part of adolescents learning how to negotiate a complex world.The same understanding can also help adults decide when to intervene. A 15-year-old girl's departure from her parents' tastes in clothing, music or politics may be a source of anxiety for Mom and Dad hut does not indicate mental illness. A 16-year-old boy's tendency to skateboard without a helmet or to accept risky challenges from friends is not unimportant but is more likely a sign of short-range thinking and peer pressure than a desire to hurt himself. Other exploratory and aggressive actions might be red flags, however. Knowing more about the uniqueteen brain will help all of us learn how to separate, unusual behavior that isage-appropriate from that which might indicate illness. Such awareness could help society reduce the rates of teen addiction, motor vehicle accidents and depression.(1)How is Paragraph 1mainly developed?A. By drawing a comparison.B. By confirming a prediction.C. By making an assumption.D. By correcting a misunderstanding.(2)What can we know about the changeability of teens' brains?A. It is predictable and avoidable.B. It is a double-edged sword.C. It is related to their brain development in the childhood.D. It results from serious functional disorders.(3)The limbic system and the prefrontal cortex are mentioned in Paragraph 3to .A. show how the mismatch between their maturation of networks happensB. explain the relationship between early puberty and themC. explain what leads to teens' riskiest behaviorD. show the differences between them(4)What are the last two paragraphs mainly about?A. The important role of adults in teenagers, development.B. Long-term prospects for the research of teenagers' brains.C. Possible cognitive and emotional problems of teenagers.D. The significance of the new discovery.20.(★★★★★)" I take words from anywhere," says Amineh Abou Kerech,moments after winning the 2017 Betjeman poetry prize for 10 - to - 13-year-olds last week. "I take them from songs and films, from what I see on the computer or the television. And I put them all together."She makes it sound so simple. It's anything but, according to her oldersister Ftoun, who is smiling at Amineh across a pub table in London's St Pancras station. "She sits in her bedroom all the time and practices, practises. ''Amineh, who was born in Syria 13 years ago, nods. She started writing poems during the four years her family spent in Egypt, but since moving to England last summer, with a new language to master and a new culture to get to grips with, she has been working doubly hard on her verses.Her prizewinning poem, Lament for Syria, was written half in English, halfin Arabic, and translated fully into English with help from her sister, her teacher and Google Translate. At the prizegiving, which took place on National Poetry Day last Thursday, next to the statue of John Betjeman at St Pancras, she read the first part of it in English before Switching to Arabic at the words " I am from Syria. "Amineh was eight when they left. The civil war had begun a year earlier, in 2011, sparked by the Arab spring and kindled by disaffection towards the Assad regime. Her family lived in Darayya, a Damascus suburb known as a centre of anti-government protest. When violence flaredup, Amineh's parents Tammam and Basmeh fled the city with their young family. They moved around for a year, sleeping wherever they could find shelter, until remaining in Syria was no longer viable and they escaped to Egypt."In Syria, all the time we were scared," says Amineh. When they settled in Cairo, despite the fact that her family had lost everything ( her father had owned a shop in Damascus selling fabric) and were living in the most basic conditions, Amineh's fear reduced. She began writing poetry, she says, as a way of putting her dislocation into words. " When I remember my Syria I feel so sad and I cry and start writing about her. '' She tells me she doesn't remember the country very well, though her poem suggests otherwise: it is, she writes, " a land where people pick up a discarded piece of bread,so that it does not get "a land where people pick up a discarded piece of bread, so that it does not get trampled on …a place where old ladies would water jasmine trees at dawn.After four years, the family moved to England as refugees, settling in Oxford where Amineh and her two siblings-Ftoun, 14, and Mohammad, 11 - now go to school. At Oxford Spires, a multicultural academy in the east of the city where more than 30 languages are spoken, the two sisters joined a workshop led by the Iraqi poet Adnan Al-Sayegh. That's where they met Scottish author Kate Clanchy,the school's writer-in-residence since 2009, who has been nurturing Amineh and Fton's talents a weekly classes.When I speak to Clanchy at the prizegiving, she marvels that Amineh has been speaking English for only a year. "Some of my most amazing writers lost a language at an early age," she says, " in the sense that they arrive suddenly in England and are no longer able to tell stories and make themselves powerful in that way. It can turn them in on themselves. But I also think they have a special capacity at that age to produce really unusual rhythms and sounds in English,which makes them into really interesting poets."This year's judges, the poet Rachel Rooney and Observer cartoonist Chris Riddell (until recently, children's laureate), agree that Amineh's poem stood out from more than 2,000 entries, drawn from schools across the UK and theRepublic of Ireland. "I found it really moving," says Rooney. "It was passionate and complex. She was asking:‘How can I do myself justice through a poem? How can I create a homeland on paper? 'And then she was actually doing it. Amazing." "It addresses a contemporary issue that's been breaking all our hearts," adds Riddell. " It has a solemnity to it, but also the profound view that you get through a child's eyes. It stands up as a poem, in any context."Though it's named after a most English poet, the Betjeman prize has been showcasing diverse voices since it was set up in 2006. The perspective here is global-one of Amineh's fellow finalists, 10-year-old Shanelle Furtado, evokes her grandparents' home in Mangalore in six vivid haikus-and it shows that adults are not the only ones with important and timely things Lo say.Speaking before the winner is announced, its director ( and Betjeman's granddaughter) Imogen Lycett Green makes a case for poetry's importance in an uncertain world. " Poets are in the fringes of society, they're not in the establishment," she says. They look at events, at lives, at love and at themselves from a sideways position. And in glancing from the side, the truth can sneak in. If adult poets are seeking the truth, I think children who are burgeoning writers are even closer to the truth. "When her poem won, Amineh looked stunned, then buried her head in her hands and wept. A moment later, as her family gathered round to congratulate her, she was beaming."It's a surprise for me, like a dream," her father tells me afterwards. He never imagined his daughter winning a prize like this: poetry doesn't run in the family. "I used to write simple things, but after the war, after the hard time that we had, we didn't think that we needed to write anything," he says. "We survived."At the end of her poem, Amineh asks, "Can anyone teach me how to make a homeland?" Although the future of her birthplace remains gravely uncertain, there are consolations to be had in her new home. " I feel so happy here because I have a future and things won't be scary any more," she tells me. "Everything will be good," she adds, "and we will always be in peace."(1)According to the passage, why did the judges award the poetry prize to Amineh Abou Kerech?A. She took words from songs and films, from anywhere.B. The poem was so simple as to be understood by peers.C. It was her endless practice that motivated the judges.D.

To be sure, the student body on a U. S. campus is a pretty diverse group ofpeople. First of all, although most students start college at around the age of 18, you will see students in their 30s and 40s and even occasionally in their 60s and 70s. Students on a U. S. campus come from a wide variety of socioeconomic backgrounds. Many students work at least part-time, and some of them work full-time. Some of the students live in dormitories on campus, some have their own apartments usually with other students, unci others live at home. Some colleges and universities have students from many different racial and ethnicminorities. Some schools have a fairly large foreign student population. So you can see that one meets all kinds of people on a U. S. college or university campus.Now that you have some general ideas of differences in the student body population, I'd like to talk a few minutes about what I think an average student is. Foreign students are often surprised at how poorly prepared American students are when they enter a university. Actually, at very selective schools the。

AACoding(编码) apps and programming apps for kids are becoming increasingly popular. Here are some of the best apps for teaching kids to code.ScratchScratch is by far the most popular coding app for kids, and it is now used in many schools all over the world. It is available for free on the web as well as for Android and iOS, which is why it is so popular. Created in 2003 by MIT students and staff, its coding language is designed for children aged 7 to 16.The language employs visual blocks or bricks that can be dragged and dropped on a workspace to construct logical chains. As a result, the child will have a better understanding of the fundamental principles of coding.Daisy the DinosaurDaisy the Dinosaur is a free iPad and iPhone programming app. What distinguishes it from the rest is that it is designed specifically for children aged 4 to 7. The app was developed by the same team that created the Hopscotch coding app for kids. If you’ve ever used that app, Daisy the Dinosaur has a similar user-friendly interface with limited features that is best for beginners.Cargo-BotCargo-Bot is a free coding app that is available for both Android and iOS devices. It is appropriate for children aged 10 and up. This app specialises in puzzle challenges involving a robotic arm that must be programmed to perform various tasks, most notably moving coloured boxes to create a specific design or pattern.KodableAnother relatively well-known coding app for kids is Kodable.’ It is free for: both the iPhone and iPad, but there is no option for Android or the web. Kodable is appropriate for both younger children and older teenagers(from 8 years old and up). It is also remarkable for guiding users from a basic to a complex level of coding.The approach is very game-like, with users able to select a character to guide them through the levels.21.Why is Scratch so popular?A.It can be adjusted by students in school.B.It was developed at the earliest time.C.It is free to use on several platforms.D.It helps children understand coding principles.22.Which app is suitable for learners of 5 years old?A.Scratch,B.Daisy the Dinosaur.C.Cargo Bot.D.Kodable. 23.What can be known about Kodable?A.It has different levels.B.It has many difficult puzzles.C.It uses visual blocks or bricks to perform tasks.D.Its development team created the Hopscotch coding app.BClimbing, I once thought, was a very manly activity, but as I found my way into this activity, I came to see that something quite different happens on the rock.Like wild swimming, rock climbing involves you into the landscape. On the rock, I am fully focused. Eyes pay close attention, ears are alert, and hands move across the surface. Unlike walking, where I could happily wander about absent-mindedly, in climbing, attentive observation is essential.As an arts student studying English literature, I discovered a new type of reading fromoutdoor climbing. Going out on to the crags (悬崖), I saw how you could learn to read the rocks and develop a vocabulary of physical movements. Good climbers knew how to adjust their bodies on to the stone. Watching them, I wanted to possess that skillful “language”.My progress happened when I worked for the Caingorms National Park Authority.Guiding my explorations into this strange new landscape was Nan Shepherd, a lady too. Unlike the goal-directed mindset of many mountaineers, she is not concerned with peaks or personal achievement. Shepherd sees the mountain as a total environment and she celebrates the Caingorms as a place alive with plants, rocks, animals and elements. Through her generous spirit and my own curiosity, I saw that rock climbing need not be a process of testing oneself against anything. Rather, the intensity of focus could develop a person into another way of being.Spending so much time in high and st ony places has transformed my view on the world and our place in it. I have come into physical contact with processes that go way beyond the everyday. Working with gravity, geology (地质学), rhythms of weather and deep time, I gain an actual relationship with the earth. This bond lies at the heart of my passion for rock climbing. I return to the rocks, because this is where I feel in contact with our land.24.What does the writer find important in climbing?A.Balance.B.Concentration.C.Determination.D.Perseverance.25.What does the writer learn from Nan Shepherd?A.Climbing goes together with nature.B.Every mountain top is within reach.C.The best climber is the one having fun.D.You can not achieve high unless you change.26.What does the underlined word“it”in the last paragraph refer to?A.Time.B.Transformation.C.The world.D.My view. 27.Why does the author like rock climbing?A.It challenges her to compete with men.B.It allows her a unique attitude toward rock.C.It teaches her how to possess a new language.D.It makes her feel connected with the earth.CThe Mona Lisa is one of the most famous paintings in the world. Painted by Leonardo da Vinci in the early 16th century, it has captivated audiences for centuries with its mysterious smile and masterful technique.The painting is housed in the Louvre Museum in Paris, France, and attracts millions of visitors each year. However, the Mona Lisa's history is not without controversy. There have been numerous attempts to steal or deface the painting, and its conservation has been a subject of great concern.Leonardo da Vinci's use of sfumato, a technique that blends colors and tones seamlessly, gives the painting a soft and hazy appearance. The sitter's expression, which seems to change depending on the viewer's angle and mood, adds to the intrigue of the work.28. What is the main subject of the passage?A. The Louvre MuseumB. Leonardo da VinciC. The Mona LisaD. Painting techniques29. What technique did Leonardo da Vinci use in the Mona Lisa?A. SfumatoB. PointillismC. CubismD. Surrealism30. Why is the Mona Lisa's conservation a concern?A. Because of its ageB. Because of the number of visitorsC. Because of past attempts to damage itD. All of the above31. What makes the Mona Lisa's expression intriguing?A. Its constant smileB. Its changing appearance depending on the viewerC. Its similarity to other paintingsD“A moth (飞蛾) to a flame” is often used to indicate an inescapable attraction, yet it is a strange example of animal behavior that continues to confuse people today. Scientists have raised a number of theories over the years to explain why. One holds that insects flying at night are following their nature to fly toward the brightest spot in their field of vision, which they mistake for the sky. Another suggests that insects are trying to warm themselves with the heat produced by the light. The most popular theory, though, is that insects are confusing lights with the moon or other celestial bodies (天体) that they normally use to navigate (导航).To find out the real reason, the team carried out a first set of experiments in an insect flight area. The researchers used eight high-speed infrared (红外线) cameras equipped with motion-capture technologies to track 30 insects from three moth and two dragonfly species. They also flew lab-raised insects from six different insect orders that were too small for motion-capture technology, including fruit flies and honeybees, to make sure different insects all showed similar responses to light. Working with co-author Pablo Allen of the Council on International Educational Exchange in Monteverde, Costa Rica, the researchers put heavy cameras, lights and tripods in two field sites to gather behavioral data from insects in the wild.The team was able to confirm that insects were not beelining to the light but rather circling it as they tilted (倾斜) in an attempt to turn their backs toward it. This behavior, known as a “dorsal light response”, normally helps insects to remain in an unchanging path of flight that is properly lined to the horizon (地平线). Artificial light that arrives from a point source causes them to fly in unpredictable patterns as they try to turn their backs to what they are mistaking for the sky.Now research might have finally solved the mystery mentioned first: artificial light confuses insects’ ability to turn themselves to the horizon, confusing their sense of what is up and down and causing them to fly in circles.32.Which theory about a moth to a flame is accepted by most people?A.They follow their nature to fly.B.They are blind to artificial light.C.They mistake artificial light for celestial bodies.D.They are attracted by the warmth of artificial light.33.What’s the author’s purpose in using the figures in paragraph 2?A.To show the study is comprehensive.B.To introduce the purpose of the study.C.To estimate the cost of the research.D.To stress the challenge faced by theresearchers.34.What does the underlined word “beelining” in paragraph 3 probably mean?A.Flying slowly.B.Sticking.C.Responding.D.Going straight. 35.What benefit can insects get from “dorsal light response”?A.They can fly beyond the horizon.B.They can follow a steady flight path.C.They can turn their backs toward lights.D.They can circle the light source upsidedown.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。
