Shanghai has issued three red alerts this year, with the temperature hitting 40.9 Celsius on July 13, matching the record set in 2017 since 1873. The fact that Shanghai has experienced only 16 days of 40°C-plus temperatures since the city began keeping records in 1873 should give us an idea about the seriousness of the situation.Medical experts say extreme heat could cause nausea (恶心), fatigue, sunstroke and even death, with senior citizens and people with long-term illnesses particularly vulnerable to heat waves.Extreme heat events, which began a month ago, have affected the lives of more than 900 million people in China. Between June 1 and July 12, the average number of days with temperatures above 35°Cwas 5.3, up 2.4 days over normal years, breaking the national record set in 1961, according to the National Climate Center.Parts of Europe are also in the grip of heat waves and experiencing extreme weather events after the western part of North America faced extreme heat waves last year. In response to the exceptionally high temperatures, the United Kingdom has declared a national emergency and issued the highest-level red alert warning for Monday and Tuesday for the first time. More alarmingly, the average global temperature in June this year was 0.4°C higher than normal years and the highest since 1979, with temperatures in countries such as Spain, France and Italy exceeding 40°C.Unfortunately, extreme heat, which is directly related to climate change, will become more frequent and intense in the next 30 years, setting new records for high temperatures. As global warming intensifies, losses and devastation will increase, forcing natural and human systems to raise their adaptation limits.4. What can we know about the heat waves this year?A.It may cause more harm to the old and people with long-term illnesses.B.The number of days above 35°Cin June breaks the national record.C.Shanghai has experienced a higher temperature than that in 2017.D.The whole Europe as well as America are suffering from the heat waves.5. How does the author develop the text?A.By analyzing and concluding. B.By explaining and contrasting.C.By giving examples and quoting. D.By giving figures and comparing.6. According to the writer, what is the trend of extreme heat?A.Becoming more serious. B.Remaining stable.C.Staying unpredictable. D.Getting controllable.7. What is the text mainly about?A.The solutions to the climate change. B.The economic losses from heat waves.C.The increase of severe heat waves. D.The destructive effect of global warming. Every year thousands of people come to the city of Pamplona, in north-eastern Spain, for the opportunity to run for their lives as six fighting bulls are released to charge through the town. There are injuries and deaths every year, but the event is of interest to many people. A paper just published in Science describes the insight the event offers into the psychology of panicked crowds.That is a useful topic to explore. Arehitects, civil engineers and urban planners must try to work out how people will behave in the event of a disaster like a fire, a flood or a terrorist attack so they can design their creations to avoid potentially deadly collisions (碰撞). Unfortunately, solid information is hard to come by. Daniel Parisi, the paper’s lead author, realised that the Pamplona b ull-runs offered the perfect natural experiment.Dr Parisi and his team went to two different rooftop locations in Pamplona in July 2019, and filmed the runners as the animals were released, Later in the lab, they calculated the speed of the runners, the density (密度) of the crowd, the probability of a runner tripping and falling and the relationship between runner-group density and speed.Perhaps unsurprisingly, the researchers found that runners picked up speed when the bulls drew near. Less expected was the finding that the speed of individual runners increased with the density of the crowd, which was contrary to a long-held assumption in architectural and urban-design circles that people will slow their pace as group density goes up, in order to lower the risk of a collision, which could lead to a fall and, perhaps, injury or death.Yet it seems that, in the heat of the moment, people pay little attention to the danger of colliding with each other, and do not slow down. The responsibility therefore falls upon urban designers to work out how best to plan the construction of future tunnels, bridges and other passages that restrict flow. The only option may well be to make them wider.8. What did Dr Parisi and his team do in Pamplona?A.They proved his theory.B.They recorded a bull-run.C.They watched a thrilling bull-fight.D.They designed a psychological experiment.9. What was the unexpected finding in the study?A.People slowed down in crowded areas.B.Tripping posed a danger to bull-runners.C.Bulls coming near made people running faster.D.People tended to speed up in high-density crowds.10. What is implied in the last paragraph?A.People lose their mind in disasters.B.Future tunnels and bridges may be wider.C.Panicked crowds are aware of the danger of collision.D.Restricting flow helps to prevent people colliding each other.11. Which is the best title for the text?A.How crowds react to panicB.Bull-runs caught on in SpainC.Dr Parisi’s finding shocks the worldD.What architects can learn from bull-running“There is one and only one social responsibility of business,” wrote Milton Friedman, a Nobel Prize-winning economist, “that is, to use its resources and engage in activities designed to increase its profits.” But even if you accept Friedman’s statement and regard corporate social responsibility (CSR) policies as a waste of shareholders’ money, things may not be absolutely clear-cut. New research suggests that CSR may create monetary value for companies at least when they are charged with corruption (腐败).The largest firms in America and Britain together spend more than $15 billion a year on CSR, according to an estimate by EPG, a consulting firm. This could add value to their businesses in three ways. First, consumers may take CSR spending as a “signal” that a company’s products are of high quality. Second, customers may be willing to buy a company’s products as an indirect way to donate to the good causes it helps. And third, through a more diffuse (分散的) “halo effect” its good dee ds earn it greater consideration from consumers and others.Previous studies on CSR have had trouble distinguishing these effects because consumers can be affected by all three. A recent study attempts to separate them by looking at bribery prosecutions (起诉) under American’s Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA). It argues that since prosecutors do not consume a company’s products as part of their investigations, they could be influenced only by the halo effect.The study finds that, among prosecuted firms, those with the most comprehensive CSR programmes tend to get more lenient punishments. Their analysis rules out the possibility that it is the firm’s political influence, rather than its CSR stance, that accounts for the leniency: Companies that contribute more to political campaigns do not receive lower fines.In all, the study concludes that whereas prosecutors should only evaluate a case based on its merits, they do seem to be influenced by a company’s record in CSR. “We estimate that either eliminati ng a substantial labor-rights concern, such as child labor, or increasing corporate giving by about 20% result in fines that generally are 40% lower than the typical punishment for bribing foreign officials.” says one researcher.Researchers admit that their study does not answer the question at how much businesses ought to spend on CSR. Nor does it reveal how much companies are relying on the halo effect, rather than the other possible benefits, when companies get into trouble with the law, evidence of good character can win them a less costly punishment.12. The author views Milton Friedman’s statement about CSR with___________.A.uncertainty B.interest C.approval D.tolerance13. According to Paragraph 2, CSR helps a company by___________.A.guarding it against malpractices B.protecting it from consumersC.winning trust from consumers D.raising the quality of its products14. The underlined expression “more lenient” in Paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to___________.A.less debatable B.more lasting C.more effective D.less severe15. When prosecutors evaluate a case, a company’s CSR record___________.A.comes across as reliable evidence B.has an impact on their decisionC.is considered part of the investigation D.increases the chance of being punished There’s a lot to cope with when you go off to university. 16 For most students, a completely new environment is waiting to be explored.We recently drove our daughter Evie 150 miles to start life as a fresher. It was a struggle to find the car park, let alone explore the huge campus. Although we knew she had flatmates and phone apps to get her to fit in, the challenge ahead was clear—to find her way in an unfamiliar world. 17In a recent study, volunteers walked around a virtual forest environment. Then some of them took the same walk again, while others explored a different forest. 18 According to the researchers, that was because exploring the new environment stimulated their dopamine (多巴胺) system—setting up their brains for memorizing things. Thus, they scored higher.So leaving home to study makes perfect sense. 19 But we may all be able to gain some of the benefits, even if it’s ju st by stimulating our senses and challenging our thinking skills. Here are three things to try:◆ Go somewhere new to tackle an upcoming learning task—like memorizing a speech in the library, or revising for an exam in a park—and take an unfamiliar route to get there.◆ 20 To warm yourself up for learning, picture a city you know well, but imagine you’re tapped ina part of it that you’ve never visited. Then try to visualize exactly how you’ll get out.◆ Play video games that get you moving through new landscapes. Then see whether it improves your success with other learning tasks, like practising a dance or mastering phrases for a foreign trip.It was a cold, rainy day, and I had no desire to drive up the winding mountain road to my daughter Carolyn’s house.

So, putting a brave face on your sadness could be harmful. The research also found that women suffered more than men when pretending to be happy.Dr. Brent Scott, who led the study, said employers should take note because forcing workers to smile when dealing with the publ ic can result in bad outcomes. He said, “Smiling for the sake of smiling can lead to emotional tiredness, and that’s bad for the organization.” He also said the research showed customer-service workers who had “fake smiles” throughout the day fell into a bad mood and didn’t want to work, so their productivity dropped.The study is one of the first of its kind to examine emotional expressions over a period of time and compare the different effects on men and women. Dr. Scott’s team examined the effects of “surface acting”, or fake smiling, compared to “deep acting”, or making people smile by thinking of pleasant memories.Dr. Scott said, “Women were harmed more by surface acting, meaning their moods worsened even more than men’s. However, they w ere helped more by deep acting, which means their moods improved more by thinking of pleasant memories. ”According to Dr. Scott, women tend to suffer more when pretending to be happy because they are expected to be more emotionally expressive than men. Therefore, forcing a smile while feeling down is more likely to go against their normal behavior and cause more harmful feelings.Although deep acting can improve moods a little in the short term, Dr. Scott says, it’s not a long-term solution to feeli ng unhappy. “There have been some suggestions that if you do this over a long period you start to feel unreal. You’re trying to develop positive emotions, but at the end of the day you may not feel like yourself any more.”42.Dr. Scott’s findings may be impor tant to some employers because______A.their work don’t want to work all the time.B.they want more female workers than male workers.C.their workers worsen their moods at the end of the day.D.they tend to force their workers to smile in public.43.According to the passage, Dr. Scott’s study ______.A. is supported by some big employers in the USAB. is meaningful as there haven’t been many similar onesC. examined more women than men for a long timeD. aimed to make the employees more productive44.It is implied in the passage that deep acting _____.A. doesn’t have any effect on menB. cannot improve our moods in any caseC. harms our feelings in the long runD. pleases people by feeling like another person45.What is the best title for the passage?A. Fake smiling makes people unhappy.B. Women shouldn’t be forced to smile.C. An important suggestion for workers.D. Why people don’t want to work.第二节(共5小题,每小题2分,共10分)根据短文内容,从短文后选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Minamiya was 13 then and was visiting Nepal on a school trip from Hong Kong."I was making a long journey to the base camp of Annapurna and when I saw Mount Everest, it made me wonder what it would be like to climb this mountain." she says. When Minamiya returned home she could not stop thinking about one day conquering(征服)the tallest peak in the world.Minamiya says, "I told my dad, 'I want to climb Mount Everest.' And he said. 'All right, great! I support your dream, but I'm not going to offer you money'" Getting enough money proved to be the biggest challenge for Minamiya. "If I could climb Mount Everest at the age of 19, I would be the youngest person to climb the mountain in Japan. So that was why I set that goal and decided to set on my climbing journey."Her dream was finally realized when she was 19, and she became the youngest Japanese that had been to the summit of Everest. "When I reached the summit, I cried and had icicles (冰柱)on my lashes. It was absolutely beautiful, she says. "I thought that I had become somebody completely new. I was reborn."What's more, Minamiya's journey to Everest took her to some of the biggest mountain ranges in the world. At the age of 20, she became the youngest person in the world to complete the Explorers Grand Slam reaching the highest peaks of all seven continents plus the North Pole and South Pole. "I was just thinking, 'Well, what should I do next?'

Covering different styles, the stories will be works by authors including Virginia Woolf, Lewis Carroll and Charles Dickens. And the first story to start is a special one-minute tale from best-selling novelist Anthony Horowitz. He planned to write whodunit(侦探小说)for the machine, and thought it was a challenge to change the style into such a short form."It was the challenge of writing a story that could be read between two stations not just a short story but very short story," he says. "Because I love whodunits, I doubt if I was able to write a proper whodunit with a solution which could make you smile in such a short amount of space." He says it took three or four days to write his story, The Death of Mr. Robinson."What interested me was that I traveled on the tube every day and saw everybody buried in apps and games, or looking at old tweets," says Horowitz, who is now working on the television adaptation(编导)of his Alex Rider series. "So the idea of using that part of your day for something fun, something like literature, is worthy.""We're all ashamed of saying we're too busy, but our research found that 70% of us would rather get lost in a good book than get lost down the rabbit hole of social media," says Lucie Moore, head of arts and events of the group.

Throughout Paris there are all kinds of stadiums and arenas (竞技场) where sporting events are held. Not only Paris itself, but also the surrounding suburbs of the capital of France set the stage for the Olympic Games!1.Which sport is entering the Olympics for the first time in Paris 2024?A.Olympic skateboarding.B.Olympic sports climbing.C.Olympic surfing.D.Olympic breakdancing.2.Which of the following statements is correct?A.Skateboarding requires a high level of physical strength.B.Each sports climbing branch focuses on a different skill.C.All the four sports events will be held in Paris.D.The scoring of breakdancing is highly objective.3.Where is the text probably taken from?A.A sports website.B.A health magazine.C.A travel brochure.D.An Olympic news report.Before going abroad, I was very concerned about culture shock, but it turned out that I had a harder time dealing with reverse (逆向的) culture shock when returning home. Coming back has been a tougher transition than expected. It’s not just about transitioning back to home life; it’s also about handling the strange situation of being a different person in the same old environment. I am most terrified of waking up in a few months and feeling like I’m the same person I was before I studied abroad.This situation is especially strange with people who have known me for a long time, like my parents, who witnessed all my major life changes before this one. I didn’t realize how much I’d changed until I interacted with them and close friends. Despite only being away for three and a half months, I quickly noticed the differences between who I was before and who I am now. Over the past few weeks at home, I’ve been wondering how to maintain the positive changes and qualities gained from my semester abroad.I’ve realized that surroundings and situations greatly influence mindset, and keeping a certain mindset while losing its corresponding (相对应的) environment is challenging. For instance, being in Madrid taught me to be more relaxed and stress-free. However, returning to Penn State with its demanding course load makes maintaining that mentality (心态) difficult. I’ve come to realize the problem that perpetual stress about school isn’t healthy, especially after experiencing a semester of travel, fun, and academic success. Therefore, I’ve decided to work hard and study as usual but occasionally give myself a break, and do what I can to avoid getting over-stressed about tests and assignments. This means I will put in effort when necessary in order to make sure I am always caught up or ahead of class material.Coming home has been more challenging than expected, but I’m confident I’ll get throughit in the next few weeks. Nevertheless, I’m determined to maintain the important lessons I learned about myself and others in Madrid.4.What was the author’s biggest concern when returning home?A.Going back to his original self.B.Adapting to new surroundings.C.Experiencing culture shock.D.Missing old acquaintances.5.What did the author realize after returning home?A.He should make his family familiar with his positive changes.B.He should change his mentality to care less about his study.C.He should adapt his mindset to fit into the old learning environment.D.He should apply himself to his study to stay ahead of class.6.What does the underlined word “perpetual” in Paragraph 3 mean?A.Current.B.Improper.C.Unnecessary.D.Continuous. 7.What is the passage mainly about?A.The sufferings of reverse culture shock.B.The reflections on personal growth.C.The adaptations to new environments.D.The success in academic performance.As we age, even if we’re healthy, the heart just isn’t as efficient in processing oxygen as it used to be. In most people the first signs show up in their 50s or early 60s. And among people who don’t exercise, the changes can start even sooner.“Think of a rubber band. In the beginning, it is flexible, but put it in a drawer for 20 years and it will become dry and easily broken,” says Dr. Ben Levine, a heart specialist at the University of Texas. That’s what happens to the heart. Fortunately for those in midlife, Levine is finding that even if you haven’t been an enthusiastic exerciser, getting in shape now may help improve your aging heart.Levine and his research team selected volunteers aged between 45 and 64 who did not exercise much but were otherwise healthy. Participants were randomly divided into two groups. The first group participated in a program of nonaerobic (无氧) exercise—balance training and weight training—three times a week. The second group did high-intensity aerobic exercise under the guidance of a trainer for four or more days a week. After two years, the second group saw remarkable improvements in heart health.“We took these 50-year-old hearts and turned the clock back to 30-or 35-year-old hearts,” says Levine. “And the reason they got so much stronger and fitter was that their hearts could now fill a lot better and pump (泵送) a lot more blood during exercise.” But the hearts of those who participated in less intense exercise didn’t change, he says.“The sweet spot in life to start exercising, if you haven’t already, is in late middle age when the heart still has flexibility,” Levine says. “We put healthy 70-year-olds through a yearlong exercise training program, and nothing happened to them at all.”Dr. Nieca Goldberg, a spokeswoman for the American Heart Association, says Levine’s findings are a great start. But the study was small and needs to be repeated with far larger groups of people to determine exactly which aspects of an exercise routine make the biggest difference. 8.What does Levine want to explain by mentioning the rubber band?A.The right way of exercising.B.The causes of a heart attack.C.The difficulty of keeping fit.D.The aging process of the heart.9.In which aspect were the two groups different in terms of research design?A.Diet plan.B.Professional background.C.Exercise type.D.Previous physical condition.10.What does Levine’s research find?A.Middle-aged hearts get younger with aerobic exercise.B.High-intensity exercise is more suitable for the young.C.It is never too late for people to start taking exercise.D.The more exercise we do, the stronger our hearts get.11.What does Dr. Nieca Goldberg suggest?A.Making use of the findings.B.Interviewing the study participants.C.Conducting further research.D.Clarifying the purpose of the study.In the spring, the western tanagers (唐纳雀) prepared to migrate (迁徙) thousands of miles to the forests of the Mountain West, flying through grasslands, deserts, and occasionally, suburban yards.To fuel them on their lengthy journey, western tanagers feed on insects and berries. They must take advantage of the early-season boom in insects that started with springtime plant growthto produce healthy young. But as global climate change caused spring to start earlier, birds such as western tanagers were arriving at their destination after what was known as “green-up”, when flowers began blooming and insects popped up. With the shift of the time when plants put out new leaves, western tanagers became more likely to reach their destinations when food is in shortage or after insect numbers have begun to drop.Scott Loss, a professor at Oklahoma State University and his colleagues used satellite imagery to calculate the average start of spring green-up along the typical migration routes of 150 North American bird species, and then compared that timing with the current green-up. They found that spring was indeed beginning earlier along birds’ migration routes. The trend continued this year.The paper continued to build this picture of the inability of birds to track the changing seasons caused by climate change. Timing mismatches between birds and their food could affect whether birds survived the migration and how many chicks they had.Morgan Tingley, a researcher at UCLA said that the migration research could indicate conservation efforts in the future. “Part of it suggested which species were vulnerable (易受伤害的) to various threats,” Tingley said. “This added to the knowledge about vulnerability of a wide range of bird species.” And he hoped that the information would serve to highlight the urgent need to lower greenhouse-gas emissions as fast as possible: “It was really important, if we couldn’t address climate change immediately, to try to stop habitat loss as much as we can.”12.During the migration, what will happen to the western tanagers after “green-up” ?A.They will struggle to find enough insects and berries.B.They will have difficulty finding suitable nesting sites.C.They will hardly find blooming flowers for reproduction.D.They will find it hard to survive harsher weather conditions.13.What is the direct result of the timing mismatch between birds and their food?A.The loss of birds’ habitats.B.The decrease of birds’ survival rate.C.The contribution to the greenhouse effect.D.The increase of difficulty in biodiversity conservation.14.What is Morgan Tingley’s attitude towards the research findings in the last paragraph?A.Uncertain.B.Critical.C.Concerned.D.Indifferent.15.Which of the following is the best title for the text?A.The Diverse Patterns of Bird MigrationB.The Timing Mismatch of Western TanagersC.The Impact of Climate Change on Migratory BirdsD.The Vulnerability of Bird Species to Various ThreatsThese days, most people like using messaging apps when they need to communicate with someone. But sometimes making a call is unavoidable. However, this simple act can actually be a nightmare for some people. 16 . If this sounds familiar to you, you might be one of the millions of people who suffer from telephobia — the fear of speaking over the phone.17 When speaking face-to-face, we use facial expressions and gestures that help each other follow the conversation. This is not the case over the phone. And the idea of speaking with someone on the phone makes some people so terrified that they will freeze up and look foolish. However, there are things that one suffering from this condition can do to ease this fear.One thing that those with telephobia can do before a call is smile. 18 It won’t remove the anxiety altogether, but it will take the edge off it.Similarly, imagining how the call will go before you make it can also help things go more smoothly. That will make you feel less nervous and help you predict some possible problems. There’s no need to spend hours on this, just a few minutes forming several ideas of what you want to say. 19 This is particularly useful for dealing with the fear of not being able to express yourself spontaneously (自然地).And finally, when faced with receiving a call, you don’t always have to pick up. 20 A.Doing so can help you feel more relaxed.B.It’s often the opening lines that give us the most anxiety.C.Their heart race and their hands sweat at the very thought of it.D.People who feel comfortable in social situations may experience telephobia.E.The most important thing is to be aware of your fear and take steps to deal with it.F.You can even write down some brief notes to remind yourself of your talking.G.There’s nothing wrong with calling the person back later when you feel more comfortable.二、完形填空Every day on the way to work, I drive down a street lined with pine trees. One tree in particular 21 my attention. It must have suffered some 22 . Part of its trunk (树干) grew nearly parallel to the ground, and then in an effort to 23 its own course of life, the trunk took a 90 degree turn 24 to stand tall and stretch toward the sun.This tree became a 25 for me. Each day as I drove by, I saw this bent but determined tree and I would be 26 . It was a reminder to me that 27 I may not have had the best start in life, I could change 28 in the parts of my life at any time.I was planning to stop one day to get a perfect 29 of my kindredspirit (志趣相同的) tree. But that week I was 30 . After that busy week, I still didn’t take any action. Every time I drove by the tree, I would 31 myself, “Tomorrow, I’ll stop tomorrow to take one.” Then one day, as I 32 by “my” tree, I glanced over, and much to my 33 found a sawed-off stump (树桩) where that symbolic tree had stood. Gone. I had 34 my plan until tomorrow and tomorrow proved to be too 35 .A picture of a tree gives me a lesson clearly: if you knew you would never have the opportunity to do it again, what would you do? Why not do those things that you have been putting off until tomorrow?21.A.paid B.caught C.fixed D.escaped 22.A.damage B.influence C.experience D.defeat 23.A.follow B.design C.change D.imagine 24.A.applying B.attempting C.happening D.learning 25.A.shelter B.signal C.sign D.symbol 26.A.interested B.satisfied C.encouraged D.educated 27.A.even though B.as if C.in case D.only if 28.A.purpose B.plan C.habit D.direction 29.A.glance B.view C.picture D.knowledge 30.A.busy B.free C.worried D.bored31.A.tell B.help C.call D.see 32.A.wandered B.drove C.rode D.ran33.A.surprise B.pleasure C.regret D.happiness 34.A.taken off B.cut off C.put off D.called off 35.A.cold B.far C.sunny D.late三、语法填空阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。

When the city is still sleeping soundly before the dawn comes on, it is the cleaners who sweep the floors or streets in spite of the chilly wind or the heavy rain. When the scenic spots are contaminated with different kinds of garbage after the sun sets, it is the cleaners who deal with the pollution despite the stink.Were there no cleaners, an inevitable deterioration in environment would occur. Undoubtedly, the streets would be full of disgusting rubbish with rats or flies here and there. What’s worse, with natural environment degrading, citizens would suffer from the spread of diseases, a horrible disaster that could be devastating.From my perspective, ordinary jobs are anything but ordinary in contemporary society. For one thing, these jobs, with essential functions respectively, contribute to the achievement of variousecological, economic, and social goals that humanity has set for itself. For another, these jobs, which are worth our enthusiasm and respect, also provide a chance to realize our value or fulfill our dreams.。

healthy.There are three things that a person can do to help stay in good shape:eat right food,get enough sleep,and exercise regularly.Proper nutrition(营养)is important for good health.Your body cannot work well unless it receives the proper kind of"fuel(燃料)".Don't eat too much food with lots of sugar and fat.Eat plenty of foods high in protein,like meat,fish,eggs and nuts.Vegetables and fruits are very important because they provide necessary vitamins and minerals.However,don't overeat.It is not helpful to be overweight.Getting the proper amount of sleep is also important.If you don't get enough sleep,you feel tired and easily get angry.You have no energy.Over a long period of time a little amount of sleep may even result in a change of personality (人的个性).Be sure to allow yourself from seven to nine hours of sleep each night.If you do,your body will feel strong and refreshed,and your mind will be sharp.Finally,get plenty of exercise.Exercise firms the body,strengthens the muscles,and prevents you from gaining weight.It also improves your heart and lungs.If you follow a regular exercise program,you will probably increase your lifespan(寿命).Any kind of exercise is good.Most sports are excellent for keeping the body in good shape:basketball,swimming,bicycling,running and so on are good examples.Sports are not only good for your body,but they are enjoyable and interesting,too.If everybody were to eat the right foods,get plenty of sleep and exercise regularly,the world would be a happier and healthier place.We would all live to be much older and wiser.24.In order to keep good health,___.A.we should eat a lot of sweetsB.one needs a large amount of fatC.people should eat according to the food's nutritionD.we must try to sleep now and then25.Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?A.Eating too much sugar and fat is not good for our health.B.We have no energy if we don’t have enough sleep.C.If we sleep five hours each night, we will feel strong.D.Exercise is good for our body.26.The title of the article should be______A.Eating and ExercisingB.Sleeping wellC.How Vitamins Work in Man’s BodyD.Staying HealthyCRecently, a case of lifeboat occurred.On Aug.4,Graham and Sheryl Anley,while boating off the coast of South Africa,hit a rock.As the boat threatened to sink,the husband got off,but his wife was trapped in the boat.Instead of saving his wife and getting her to shore,Graham grabbed Rosie,their pet dog.With Rosie safe and sound,Graham returned for Sheryl.All are doing fine.It's a great story,but it doesn't strike me as especially newsworthy.News is supposed to be about something fairly unique,and recent research suggests that,in the right circumstances,lots of people also would have grabbed their Rosie first.We have strange relationships with our pets.We lavish our pets with better health care than billions of people receive.We speak to pets with the same high-pitched voices that we use for babies.As an extreme example of our feelings about pets,the Nazis had strict laws that guaranteed the humane treatment of the pets of Jews being shipped to death camps.A recent paper by George Regents University demonstrates this human involvement with pets to an astonishing extent.Participants in the study were told a situation in which a bus is out of control,bearing down on a dog and a human.Which do you save?With responses from more than 500people,the answer was that it depended:What kind of human and what kind of dog?Everyone would save a brother,grandparent or close friend rather than a strange dog.But when people considered their own dog versus people less connected with them-a distant cousin or a hometown stranger-votes in favorof saving the dog came rolling in.And an astonishing 40% of respondents,including 46% of women,voted to save their dog over a foreign tourist.What does a finding like this mean?First,it shows that your odds aren't so good if you find yourself in another country with a bus bearing down on you and a cute dog.But it also points to something deeper:our unprecedented(史无前例的)attitude toward animals,which got its start with the birth of humane societies in the 19th century.We prison people who abuse animals,put ourselves in harm's way in boats between whales and whalers and show sympathy to Bambi and his mother.We can extend empathy to an animal and feel its pain like no other species.But let's not be too proud of ourselves.As this study and too much of our history show,we're pretty selective about how we extend our humaneness to other human beings.27.What is the function of the first paragraph?___A.To create a relaxing mood for readers.B.To lead in the main topic of this essay.C.To present the theme of this essay straightly.D.To raise problems that will be solved later.28.The author mentions Nazi laws in the third paragraph___.A.to show how cruel the Nazis were to the JewsB.as an example to persuade people not to love petsC.as an example to display the humaneness of the NazisD.to illustrate the strange relationship between human and pets29.Which of the following is true according to the article?___A.Human beings are more and more concerned with animals nowadays.B.Most people surveyed choose to save their own dog rather than a human.C.It was in the 19th century that human beings started to love their pets.D.The story of the Anleys and their dog was too unique to be newsworthy.30.What does the author mainly argue for?___A.Pets are of great significance to us human beings.B.It is kind of human beings to extend humaneness to animals.C.We should rethink about our attitude towards animals and mankind.D.We should be selective when showing attitude toward other human beings.第二节七选五(每小题2分,满分10分)The only thing better than a vacation with friends is a well-planned vacation with friends.

2019-2020学年江苏省扬州中学高三英语月考试题及答案第一部分阅读(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、D四个选项中选出最佳选项ASongkran, ThailandThis festival marks the Thai New Year, which is celebrated in the second week of April. This is the hottest time of the year in Thailand, so it makes sense that the biggest Songkran tradition is to throw water on people. Thais of all ages join in water fights, using buckets, hoses (软管)and water guns to celebrate the event.Boryeong Mud Festival, South KoreaDon't expect to come home clean after experiencing the Boryeong Mud Festival in South Korea. Famous for its mineral-rich mudflats, visitors rush to Boryeong in July to make themselves in mud, swim in grey pools and enjoy the party. There are even mudslides and a mud skiing competition for those who are seeking the extreme mud adventure!La Tomatina, SpainThe festival dates back to a parade in which some naughty teenagers knocked one performer off his stilts (高跷)and caused a fight of throwing vegetables accidentally. It was once banned until 1957 when the locals held a protest with a funeral. They carried a coffin containing a huge tomato as bands played a funeral march. In the following decades, La Tomatina has become a popular event. If you join the event, be aware that you squash (压扁) the tomato before throwing it. Have a great time but avoid causing any injury.Dia de los Muertos, MexicoBeginning at the midnight of October 31 and lasting through November 2,it is a festival when families gather together to remember those loved ones who have died, aiming to help them on their spiritual journey. On these days, Mexican families prepare special tables in their homes. On top of them they'll put photos of the dead and their favorite food. They also visit the graves of their beloved ones to show their respect to the dead.1.If you want to experience a special new year in a country, you can choose to visit ________.A.ThailandB.South KoreaC.SpainD.Mexico2.What may happen to you as a visitor in La Tomatina?A.You can perform stilts.B.Your can play funeral music in bands.C.You may be covered with mud.D.You may be attacked with tomatoes.3.Which festival is similar to the Tomb Sweeping Festival in China?A.Songkran.B.Boryeong Mud Festival. Tomatina.D.Dia de los Muertos.BA company called Neuralink has shared a video where a monkey is playing a video game. That' s fairly unusual, but what makes the video even stranger is that the monkey is playing the video game with just his mind.The monkey in the video is called Pager who has two of Neuralink's special "Link" devices(装置)inside his brain. The devices planted in Pager's brain are connected to 2,048 wires which lead to the parts of Pager's brain that control movements of the arms and hands.Scientists taught Pager to play a video game. At first, Pager controlled the video game using a joystick it, which is a normal gaming controller. But as Pager played, his Link devices wirelessly sent out information about the signals his brain was using to control his arms and hands. Neuralink's scientists recorded all of these signals.Then they used computers to match the signals from Pager's brain to the movements that his hands were actually doing. This was the most difficult work and the scientists counted on artificial intelligence ( AI) to help them decode(解码)Pager's brain signals.The final step was to have a computer make moves inthe video game as if Pager had actually moved the joystick. If Pager thought about moving the joystick up, the computer would send an “up” signal to the video game.At first, the researchers let Pager keep moving the joystick with his hand, even though it was no longer connected to the computer. But soon Pager was able to play the video game using just his brain.Even though Neuralink's work right now focuses on animals and video games, there's a very serious purpose behind it. Neuralink wants to make it possible for humans who have lost the ability to make physical movements to interact with the world around them.4. What are “Link” devices used to do?A. To pick up the arms' and hands' signals.B. To link the computer to the monkey's brain.C. To send out information about the brain's signals.D. To control movements of the arms and hands.5. What challenged scientists most in the study?A. Recording and sending out body signals.B. Training Pager to use the joystick correctly.C. Planting "Link" devices into Pager's brain.D. Matching brain signals to body movements.6. What is Neuralink's real purpose of the study?A. To test artificial intelligence.B. To help those without arms or legs.C. To study how animals play video games.D. To develop more complex video games.7. What can be the best title for the text?A. Video Games for Animals Are Developed.B. Science Proves the Intelligence of Monkeys.C. Monkey Plays Video Games Using His Mind.D. Neuralink Is Leading the World in Technology.CThe term "bird brain" is frequently used to describe a person's lack of intelligence and good decision-making ability. However, some scientists believe it should be considered a praise, given that many birds can perform human tasks like producing and using tools, solving problems, and planning for future needs. Now,Griffin, an African Grey parrot, has proved that birds may even possess better visual memories than human adults and children.The study, led by Hrag Pailian, a researcher at Harvard University, had the parrot compete in the game against twenty-one undergraduate students and twenty-one 6 to 8-year-old children. The popular challenge involves hiding a small object under one of three or more upside-down cups, which are moved around. Participants are required to accurately identify the cup under which the object lies. To make the task more challenging, the researchers required participants to track two, three, and four objects at the same time.An analysis of the results showed thatGriffinoutperformed the 6 to 8-year-olds across all levels on average. Even more impressive, the "bird brain" performed as well as, or slightly better than, the 21 Harvard students on 12 of the 14 trials! It was only in the final two tests, which had the most objects and most movement, that the parrot fell behind the adults. However,Griffin's performance was never below that of the children.Griffinwas the candidate of choice because the scientists needed an animal that had a brain functionality similar to that of humans. "The fact that the smart parrot loves to show off his brain power in exchange for a fewcashews (腰果) did not hurt either", said Irene Pepperberg, a Harvard lecturer, who has trained Griffin and several other African Grey parrots, has been studying the species for over four decades and is considered a pioneer in the study of bird intelligence.8. Whatwere the participants required to do in the study?A. Identify different kinds of objects.B. Tell where the hidden object lies.C. Track other participants' performance.D. Move around upside-down cups.9. What did the results of the study indicate?A. 6 to 8-year-olds did better thanGriffin.B. Parrots have a better memory than other birds.C. Harvard students have a better visual memory.D.Griffinoutsmarted Harvard students in some trials.10. Why wasGriffinchosen for the experiment?A. It was good at making decisions.B. It was specially trained for experiments.C. It had similar brain functions to human beings.D. It loved to show off his language power for some treats.11. What is the best title for the text?A. "Bird brain" becomes a term for a stupid person.B. Harvard lecturer pioneers in bird intelligence study.C. Parrot outsmarted Harvard students in visual memory test.D. Researchers made new discoveries about human intelligence.DWe've all heard it before:to be successful, get out of bed early. After all, Apple CEO Tim Cook gets up at 3:45 am, Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne at 3:30 am and Richard Branson at 5:45 am﹣and, as we all know, "the early bird's catches the worm. "But just because some successful people wake up early, does that mean it's a trait most of them share?And if the idea of having exercised, planned your day, eaten breakfast, visualized and done one task before 8 am makes you want to roll over and hit snooze till next Saturday, are you really doomed to a less successful life?For about half of us, this isn't really an issue. It's estimated that some 50% of the population isn't really morning or evening﹣oriented, but somewhere in the middle. Roughly one in four of us, though, tend moretoward bright﹣eyed early risers, and another one in four are night owls. For them, the effects can go beyond falling asleep in front of the TV at 10 pm or being regularly late for work.Numerous studies have found that morning people are more self﹣directed and agreeable. And compared to night owls, they plan for the future more and have a better sense of well﹣being.Although morning types may achieve more academically, night owls tend to perform better on measures of memory, processing speed and cognitive(认知)ability, even when they have to perform those tasks in the morning. Night﹣time people are also more open and more creative. And one study shows that night owls areas healthy and wise as morning types﹣and a little bit wealthier.Still think the morning people sound more like CEO material?Don't set your alarm for 5 am Just yet. As it turns out, overhauling(全面改革)your sleep time may not have much effect"If people are left to their naturally preferred time, they feel much better. They say that they are much more productive. The mental capacity they have is much broader, " says Oxford University biologist Katharina Wulff. On the other hand, she says, pushing people too far out of their natural preference can be harmful. When they wake early, for example, night owls are still producing melatonin(褪黑素). "Then you disrupt it and push the body to be in the daytime mode. That can have lots of negative physiological consequence. " Wulff says, like a different sensitivity to insulin and glucose(葡萄糖)which can cause weight gain.12. What does the authordo in the first three paragraph?A. raising the problem→analyzing the problem → solving the problemB. leading in the topic→challenging a viewpoint → discussing about the topicC. presenting a viewpoint → providing supporting proofs→making a conclusionD. introducing a viewpoint →raising the question→presenting author's viewpoint13. What can we know from the 4th and 5th paragraph?A. Morning types tend to have clear goals and better mood.B. To beat night﹣time people ask them to do math calculation in themorning.C. Night owls tend to sacrifice their health for their wealth.D. Neither night owls nor morning persons perform better than the middle ones.14. Which of the following does Katharina Wulff support?A. Don't fall sleep in front of the TV.B. Avoid being regularly late for work.C. Stop setting your alarm for 5 am.D. Better not overhaul your sleep time.15. Why does the author write this article?A. To explain why some people are more successful.B.To compare the differences between early risersand night owls.C. To advise people to get up neither too early nor too late.D. To argue against this view that the Carly bird catches the worm.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10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。

江苏省扬州中学2019-2020学年第一学期高一英语月考试卷2019.10第一部分听力(略)第二部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分45分)第一节(共15小题,每小题2分,满分30分)AOn Saturday nights, A. J. Coston doesn't get a lot of sleep. Usually three or four times a night, a loud bell rings, a red light flashes, and he has to jump out of his bed. That's because he's a weekend volunteer firefighter(消防员) with Loudoun County Fire and Rescue Station 13 in Northern Virginia. During the week, he lives at home with his mom, dad and sister and does his main job which is going to high school.“I always wanted to get into firefighting since I was a little kid watching fire trucks go by,” he says.“One day on the Internet I noticed that Loudoun County offered a junior firefighter program.”He was only 16, but he got it.Fighting fires is dangerous work. Firefighters never stop practicing the skills they need to stay safe. Once Coston learned those skills, he was allowed to work inside burning buildings.“Teamwork is the most important,” he says.“It's the whole team that puts the fire out.”Firefighters feel great about helping people.“My most unbelievable call was probably the time four kids were struck by lightning,” says Coston. He will be off to college next fall, building on his dream job. "I'll get my degree in emergency (紧急情况) medical care. and then work in a fire and rescue company for a while. I want to be a flight doctor on a helicopter in the end, but I will never forget the days as a firefighter. These are my unforgettable experiences,” he says.21.

While most of us tend to move on after mourning over the lost necessities, there are a few lucky ones who get them back, with the help of the police or the generosity of the person who finds it.And then there is Hunter Shamatt, who not only got back his wallet but with some added happiness that was tagged along!Hunter was on his way to attend his sister’s wedding on a Las Vegas-bound flight when he realized that he has misplaced his wallet, sometime during the journey. Hunter’s family reached out to the Frontier flight to enquire if someone had handed it over to them. Unfortunately, there was no sign of the missing wallet.But wait. The story was far from over. Just a week after Hunter’s sister’s wedding, he received a package in his mail. And guess what? There was his wallet! Surprisingly, the wallet was not the only thing that was inside the package. It also had a handwritten note for Hunter which turned out to be a bonus! The piece of paper read,“Hunter, Found this on a Frontier flight from Omaha to Denver — row 12, seat F wedged between the seat and wall. Thought you might want it back. All the best.P.S. I rounded your cash up to an even $100, so you could celebrate getting your wallet back. HAVE FUN”Moved by the touching gesture, Hunter’s mom, Jeannie Shamatt, decided to write a post on Facebook giving a detailed description of the incident. She also urged everyone to share the post as she would like to meet and greet the person behind the act of kindness, personally.Now, thanks to the astonishing power of social media, the post finally reached the man behind the note. The man was identified as Todd Brown and it was one of his co-workers who made sure Jeannie Shamatt’s post reaches his colleague. Jeannie turned to Facebook again to thank Brown and his family for restoring her faith in humanity.“I try to teach my children to do the right things in life, help people when you can regardless of the outcome. This story is more about restoring faith in people than anything. We hear a lot of bad news but not enough good news. I personally want to thank Todd Brown and his wife for restoring faith that there are amazing people out there.”25. What things were found in the package?A. A wallet and a tag.B.

Justice.CAt one time no one could travel on an English road faster than four miles an hour.That was the law until 1896.A man had to walk in front of a car which could not go faster than the man.At night the man had to carry a red lamp.Once Charles Rolls brought a car from France to England,but he wanted to drive faster than four miles an hour.In order to have no trouble with the police,he had a talk with some of the police officers,who ordered their policemen to look the other way when the car came along the road.This was a good plan in the country,but not so easy to follow in the busy streets of London.One night Rolls and some friends started from London on their journey to Cambridge.One of the men walked in front with the red lamp,but he walked as fast as he could.The police became very interested in walls and shop-fronts when they heard the car and not one of them saw it.They reached a hill,but what a waste of time it was to drive down the hill at four miles an hour! Rolls was getting ready to jump into the car,but then he noticed a policeman who was not looking the other way.The slow car reached him."Good evening," said the policeman,looking at the car."Good evening," said Rolls,holding the lamp."One of these horseless things," said the policeman,looking at it with interest."Yes," said Rolls,and waited."I've often wanted a ride in one,but of course policemen can't buy things like that." He turned and looked hopefully in Rolls's face."Jump in," said Rolls."Thanks," said the policeman,and did so."Now," he said,sitting down,"You can let it go just as you like down this hill.There isn't another policeman on this road for a mile and a half."28.The policemen were told "to look the other way" so that___.A.they could watch the car coming from the other directionB.Rolls's car could go faster than four miles an hourC.they could make sure no one was in the wayD.the car would not hit them on the road29.In what way did the policemen carry out the order from their officers?___A.They greeted Rolls when the car came along.B.They walked in front of the car with a red lamp.C.They pretended to be attracted by something else.D.They stood on duty every 1.5 miles along the road.30.The policeman who said "Good evening" to Rolls wanted to___.A.teach Rolls a lessonB.take a free ride homeC.have a talk with RollsD.have a car ride experience31.After the policeman jumped into the car,Rolls___.A.dared not drive the car faster than he was allowed toB.could drive as fast as he wished within a certain distanceC.could drive on any road he liked for the rest of the journeyD.drove his car as fast as he could down the hill to CambridgeDTeens are now likely to do part-time jobs,drink alcohol or go out without their parents than counterparts 10 or 20 years ago. This generation of teens is delaying the responsibilities and pleasures of adulthood. Some people think that today’s teens are more virtuous(道德的)and responsible. Others have suggested that today’s teens aren’t working because they are simply lazy.To figure out what is really going on, we should look at these with “life history theory” taken into consideration. A “fast-life method” was the more common parenting approach in the mid-20th century,when fewer labor-saving devices were available and average woman had four children. The parents needed to focus on day-to-day survival. As a result, Kids needed to care for themselves sooner. A“slow-life method”, on the other hand,is more common in times and places where family has two children and spend more time on each child’s growth and development. When the average family has two children,preparing for college can begin as early as primarily school. The two methods are adaptations to a particularly cultural background,so each isn’t naturally “good”or “bad”.Delaying exposure to alcohol,then could make young adults less prepared to deal with drinking in college. One study found teens who rapidly increased there binge-drinking were more at risk of alcohol dependence than those who learned to drink over a longer period of time. The same might be true of teens who don’t work,drive or go out much in high school. College administrators describe students who can’t do anything without calling their parents. Employers worry that more employees lack the ability to work independently.However, “slow-life method ” is also likely beneficial as teens are spending more time developing socially and emotionally before they drive,drink alcohol and work for pay. The key is to make sure that teens eventually get the opportunity to develop the skills they will need as adults:independence, along with social and decision-making skills. For parents, this might mean pushing their teenagers out of the house more.32.According to the text,teens in the past were more_________A.realiableB. innocentC.intelligentD.independent33.what plays a vital role in the trend of teens growing up more slowly?A.
