Where can you go and enjoy an exhibition but spend less money?A. Poly Art Museum, New Poly Plaza.B. National Museum of China.C. The Riverside Art Museum.D. Beijing Workers' Gymnasium.BAround four years ago, I received a call from the principal of our school as to the “Parents View” talk the next morning. He asked me to speak to the group. After the call, my whole body became feverish and panicky. The time from his call to the next morning seemed like years. The whole night, I could not sleep with many ominous apprehensions in mind. One of them was to call the principal with regret and tell him that I could not come. Finally, I gathered some courage. I thought, “If I miss this opportunity, surely the school will never invite me again to any of their programs.”I reached the school in time. Before my turn came, my whole body was trembling. When my turn came and I started speaking, my heartbeat increased and my mouth went dry. I wasn’t even able to read the written speech properly. I was not aware of where I was standing and what I was reading. That was the day when I realized my biggest weakness, Public Speaking.After my speech, I met with the principal and explained what happened to me. He told me that this happens to everyone. Even great speakers faced the same things when they started. He suggested that I come again next time.Around one month later, I was invited to refer to a topic on Motivation. This time I was feeling comfortable. My speech was not only appreciated by the principal as well as the teachers, because I was able to get my idea across to them. They encouraged and praised my efforts.After delivering successfully, I became more confident. I said to myself, “If I can speak in front of such a learned audience, like the principal who educates others, I can now speak in front of others too.”I started delivering lectures in my plan, on various topics like Self Motivation, Personality Development, Personal Excellence, Spoken English and Presentation Skills. This has become a passion for me. I learned that everything is possible if we have the courage to take the first step.()24. Why did the author have bad feelings before the speech?A. he feared he couldn't perform it properly.B. he had got a high fever before that.C. he regretted accepting the invitation.D. he disliked the idea of giving a lecture.()25. What does the underlined part “ominous apprehensions” in the first paragraph mean?A.Unlucky opportunities.B. Curious views.C. Negative ideas.D. Happy comments.()26. What can we conclude from the passage?A. Necessity is the mother of invention.B. Nothing is to be got without pains but poverty.C. Knowledge makes humble, ignorance makes proud.D. A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.()27. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. Public Speaking Makes a Man Embarrassed.B. Principal Provides the Best Chances.C. Practice Makes a Man a Better Speechmaker.D. Spoken English Develops in Speeches.CCold weather during winter months may keep many people from leaving home and running in the open air.However, a new study shows that the drop in temperature is a good reason to run. In fact, researchers say, running in cold weather helps improve one’s performance.Many people say running in the winter can be difficult. Two reasons are the low temperatures and bitter winds. Yet many runners might find it easier than running in hot weather.That could be because lower temperatures reduce stress on the body. When you run in cold weather, your heart rate and the body’s dehydration (脱水) levels are lower than in warmer conditions. The body needs less water on a cold day than in warm weather.T his information comes from sports scientists at St. Mary’s University in London. John Brewer is a professor of applied sport science at St. Mary’s.For this study, he and other researchers put a group of people into a room they called an “environmental chamber.” The researchers then recreated summer and winter weather conditions in the room. The test subjects were asked to run 10,000 meters under both conditions. Brewer says he and his team recorded biological measurements of the runners.“We’ve got a group of subjects into the environmental chamber, we’ve changed the conditions to replicate the summer or winter and we’ve got them to run a 10km under both of those conditions and taken various measurements on each runner whilst they’ve been completing their 10km.”Brewer says every movement runners make produces heat. He explains that one way in which we lose heat is by sweating. The body loses heat through droplets of sweat. He says the body also loses heat by transporting the blood to the surface of the skin.()28. What can we know about running in winter?A.It improves the function of body.B. It increases pressure of the body.C. It makes your heart rate higher.D. It needs more water than in summer.()29. What can we know about the research according to the text?A. Researchers interviewed the subjects.B. Subjects were asked to run in winter and summer.C. Subjects built the “environmental chamber”.D. Biological measurements of the runners were recorded.()30. Which of the following can repla ce the underlined word “replicate” in Paragraph 7?A. Combine.B. Copy.C. Remember.D. Decorate.()31. What’s the best title for the passage?A.Environmental ChamberB. The Way of Losing HeatC. Running in Cold Weather Improves PerformanceD. Biological Measurements of the RunnersDSpending money on time-saving services reduces stress and boosts(增进)happiness,according to a new research, but shockingly, few of us do it.Whillans, a professor at HBS said, “ Buying time h elps to protect us from the stress in our lives caused by time pressure, and the feeling that we don’ t have enough minutes in the day to complete our tasks. ’’The effect was clearest in the Canadian experiment, in which 60 working adults were given $40 to spend in two different ways. One weekend, they were told to spend the money on a material purchase—a gift for themselves. The next weekend, they were instructed to spend the $40 on anything that saved them time,from paying the neighbor ’ s kid to run err ands (跑腿)to taking an Uber instead of a bus.“On the day they made the time-saving purchase, they felt happier, in a better mood, and lower feelings of time stress than on the day they bought a material purchase,’’ said Whillans.The biggest surprise to the researchers was how few people would spend money on time-saving services. When they asked 98 working adults how they would spend a “windfall” of $40,only two percent named a purchase that would save them time.“ One reason,’’ said Whillans, “ is that we’ re very bad at remembering how much we hate doing certain tasks once the suffering has passed. That makes us less likely to take active steps to avoid that overburdened feeling in the future. ” But another possible cause is good old-fashioned guilt. “If y ou feel guilty about getting someone to clean your house for you, then you might get less happiness from outsourcing (外包)that task,” said Whillans,“ or you might just be less likely to spend your money in that way. ’’()32.In the Canadian experiment, the participants_____.A.were divided into two groupsB.were given $ 40 every two weeksC.were asked to give money to a neighbor’s kidD.were asked to spend the money in different ways()33.According to the author, what can make people less time-stressed?A.Paying much for a concert ticket.B.Taking a regular bus to get to work.C.Employing someone to clean the garden.D.Buying themselves an expensive present.()34.When it comes to spending money on ‘‘buying time”,.A.no people would like to do itB.a small percentage of people choose to do itC.more people will do it if extra money is givenD.most people like the idea but don ’ t practice it in life()35.What do the underlined words “that overburdened feeling” in Paragraph 6 refer to?A.The good old-fashioned guilt.B.The feeling of spending money on goods.C.The stress of having someone clean your house.D.The discomfort when completing tasks we hate doing.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10 分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

But one day a friend asked him to join in a game, and Tran’s life would change forever. “He taught me to enjoy life and to stay positive. But most importantly, Andy taught me to enjoy what you have right now because you never truly appreciate it until it’s gone.”High School Students Goes From Homeless to HopefulJennifer may look like your average high school student, but for two years, she was homeless. She lived with her undocumented parents for two years while they searched for a new home. “I’m grateful for the family I have. Because no matter what the situation we were in, we stayed together anyway.”Redefining Manhood in RichmondYoung men growing up in Richmond face pressure to hold back their emotions, be violent and hide who they are. Richmond High School students Frank Mendieta and Brian Higareda interviewed their friends and teachers to explore this “mask” of manhood. “ We have to put an end to gender norms(性别标准) where the man is a tough heartless person, and the woman is a caring person.”Music Is the Spirit That Moves These Teens From Tonga.High school students, Joe Fifita and Moala Tautuaa, both 18, have been singing and playing music for as long as they can remember. They say it connects them to their Tongan roots, and makes them better people. “It’s like we define every single note when we’re young, and just build on it as we get older.”21.What is the best lesson Lucas learnt from his friend?A.

With opening night only a week ago, I was still learning my lines. I was having trouble dealing with my part-time job at the bank and my acting at night at the same time. As I walked, I thought seriously about giving up both acting and San Francisco. City life had become too much for me.As I walked down empty streets under tall buildings, I felt very small and cold. I began running, both to keep warm and to keep away from any possible robbers. Very few people were still out except a few sad-looking homeless people under blankets.About a block from my apartment, I heard a sound behind me. I turned quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun. The street was empty. All I saw was a shining streetlight. Still, the noise had made me nervous, so I started to run faster. Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I realize what the noise had been. It had been my wallet falling to the sidewalk.Suddenly I wasn't cold or tired anymore. I ran out of the door and back to where I'd heard the noise. Although I searched the sidewalk anxiously for fifteen minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be found.Just as I was about to give up the search, I heard the garbage truck pulling up to the sidewalk next to me. When a voice called from the inside, "Alisa Camacho?" I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name? The door opened, and out jumped a small red-haired man with an amused look in his eyes. "Is this what you're looking for?" he asked, holding up a small square shape.It was nearly 3 a.m. by the time I got into bed. I wouldn't get much sleep that night, but I had gotten my wallet back. I also had gotten back some enjoyment of city life. I realized that the city couldn't be a bad place as long as people were willing to help each other.24. How did the writer feel when she was walking home after work?A. Cold and sick.B. Fortunate and helpful.C. Satisfied and cheerful.D. Disappointed and helpless.25. On her way home the writer____________.A. lost her wallet unknowinglyB. was stopped by a garbage truck driverC. was robbed of her wallet by an armed manD. found some homeless people following her26. In the fifth paragraph, why did the writer say she was dreaming?A. Someone offered to take her back home.B. A red-haired man came to see her.C. She heard someone call her name.D. Her wallet was found in a garbage truck.27. From the text, we can infer that the writer___________.A. would stop working at nightB. would stay on in San FranciscoC. would make friends with cleanersD. would give up her job at the bankCTruly successful people never make any excuses. Rather, they own their choices and take full responsibility for the results they create, what they do and what they don't do. If you really want to do something, just do it. You have to stop lying to yourself about why you haven't done it already. If you want to do something badly enough, you'll find a way. If you don't, you'll find an excuse. It's as simple as that.More often than not, our excuses are just lies wrapped up as reasons to avoid the real work of living our best lives. Yet you and I both know that you are better than that, and you are selling yourself short when you make excuses.When I started writing my first book, I had no idea how to write a book (much less how to get one published) and had never taken a writing class. I also had four children under the age of 7 and no babysitter. But I decided to give myself permission to write an imperfect book. So each afternoon when I could get my kids down for a nap or in front of the TV for an hour, I'd start writing. Four years later, Find Your Courage found its way onto store shelves. It is now published in five languages.Of course, back then, most people would have accepted any excuse I made for not pursuing the dream at my heart to pen a book. Likewise, you will always find well-meaning people to back up your excuses, even the lousy(讨厌的) ones. But they won't be the pioneers, change-makers or go-getters. No, the people who'll back your excuses will be the ones who have well-worn excusesthemselves to explain their own sad fate in life.28. According to the passage, truly successful people__________.A. only make excuses for what they have already doneB. always com plain about the difficulties they experienceC. treasure what they have and hope for what they doD. never make excuses but face the reality responsibly29. Which couldn't have served as the writer's excuse to give up her dream?A. I didn't know how to write a book.B. I had never taken a writing class.C. I never permitted myself to fail.D. I had to take care of my children.30. What's the writer's attitude to those who support her excuses?A. They are annoying.B. They are successful.C. They are losers in lifeD. They are well-meaning.31. What's the best title for the passage?A. Take your responsibilityB. Never make excusesC. Hold on to your dreamD. Never back up others' excusesDThe human body has about 25.000 genes. Researchers already know that up to 65 genes would carry a risk of autism(自闭症). NOW researchers at Princeton University in New Jersey have identified2,500 more that could help create the conditions for autism. The discovery is important because the genes could lead scientists toward finding a cause and possibly a treatment.Arjun Krishnan is a researcher at Princeton's Lewis-Sigler Institute for Integrative Genomics. He said researchers used what they called a machine-learning computer program to identify autism-relatedgenes. Krishnan explained that the program identified similarities between brain-related genes and the 65 autism-risk genes. Then, the program looked for other genes that were “friends” of both sets. He said the process was like finding friends on Facebook.“And if Facebook wants to suggest a friend for you, what it would do is to find out who your friends are and then find out other people who are friends with those same people. And if they are, they are very likely friends of you, too. So that is how they give you suggestions of new friends you might know. We used a very, very similar strategy.”The strategy permits researchers to find patterns within the brain's huge circuitry(电路系统). It shows that having genes that are “friends” of both brain-related and autism-related genes can increase a person's risk of autism. The findings can also help researchers understand why one person may be only mildly affected with autism, while another is severely affected. In other words, autism researchers need to consider not only individual genes, but also gene combinations.Researchers still have not found a way to diagnose autism, beyond just observing the children, but they hope this new research into gene patterns will lead to a way to treat very young children. Then they can be helped as soon as possible.32. What positive influence does the identified genes have on scientists?A. Improving their working conditions.B. Creating more chances to their goals.C. Knowing autism’s features and effects.D. Finding autism’s cause and treatment.33. What do we know about the friendly gene in Paragraph 2?A. It is just a medium.B. It is just a computer program.C. It can be friendly to any gene.D. It can find the similarities between genes.34.What does the underlined word “patterns” in Paragraph 4 refer to?A. Autism's features.B. Autism's causes.C. Gene connections.D. Gene types.35. What would be the best title for the text?A. Genes therapy in autismB. The ways to cure autismC. The discovery of autism-related genesD.

I was 4 years old. Elmont was a wonderful place to grow up. There were lots of kids, great schools and we had a big yard. Having grown up a city kid, my father, Nicholas Denaro, believed that grass was not just to look at, but that children were meant to play on it. We played games and badminton there. A white fence separated our backyard from a small wood. My friends and I jumped the fence and climbed trees.My father had the most amazing hand. He could fix anything. He gave those amazing hands to his son, my younger brother, Frank, who also became handy around the house. But my father saved his green fingers for me. He grew flowers, tomatoes, strawberries and figs and he shared his love of gardening with me.Fourteen years ago, I went to a local nursery and purchased a fig tree for Dad for Father’s Day. My mother, Bridget Denaro, called it the best gift I could have given him. He planted it exactly in the middle of the front yard.He loved that tree and enjoyed delicious figs every year, except just after Sandy hit in 2012. He was so disappointed when cold weather just after the superstorm froze all the remaining figs.In 2015, my father died of aspirating pneumonia(呼吸性肺炎) at 97. We sold our family home of 61 years last year. We left behind Dad’s tree, full of figs waiting to ripen. We briefly considered taking it with us, but decided that his Father’s Day fig tree belonged in Elmont. The new owners generously allowed me to take some branches so that I could have a precious reminder of my much-loved father and the Elmont home.24.

From water bottles made from seaweed to cutlery(餐具) made from rice and wheat, a number of inventions are set to change the way we eat while we are on the go, or having a relaxing picnic in the park.The idea of using seaweed to make eco-friendly water bottles has been around for a few years. Recently, Ari Jonsson took his invention—a water bottle made from red seaweed—to show off at a festival. The bottles will only hold their shape as long as they are filled. As soon as these bottles are empty they will begin to break down, though they would be perfectly safe to eat. Ari Jonsson's bottles are a step closer to a widely used alternative to the current plastic ones.The eatable water container is not the only product to add to our image of the future. Narayana Pessapaty has also created eatable spoons. After the success of his spoons, Mr. Pessapaty is ready to expand and introduce forks and chopsticks to his menu. His aim is to largely reduce the amount of plastic waste, which is a huge problem for waste sites all over the world, It is a product that may take up to 500 years to break down, and recycling companies worldwide are struggling to deal with it.Aside from the obvious benefits to the environment, this new packaging is also cheap to produce and therefore cheap to buy. Even better is the fact that similar eatable cutlery can be made at home, possibly a science project for children or just fun with friends. Why not experiment and create your own recipes?28.Why do scientists invent alternative packaging products?A. To make people's life more convenient.B. To show off their inventive talents.C. To reduce the amount of plastic waste.D.To change the way we picnic outside.29. What makes Art Jonsson's water bottles eco-friendly?A. They can be made at home.B. They are cheap to produce and buy.C. They will break down themselves when empty.D. They will hold their shape when they are filled.30. What do Ari and Narayana's inventions have in common?A. They are safe to eat.B. They are convenient to carry.C. They can be used for a short time.D. They are heavier than plastics.31. What can be inferred from this passage?A. Eatable cutlery will completely replace plastics in the near future.B. Home-made eatable cutlery is likely to be popular.C. No recycling companies can break down plastic waste.D. It’s unsafe for individuals to invent eatable cutlery at home.DA European Union program is letting blind people experience famous paintings for the first time. It uses three dimensional (3-D) printing to re-create famous paintings so they can be touched.One painting printed with the new technology is Gustav Klimt’s “The Kiss.” It is a popular attraction at the Belvedere Museum in Vienna, Austria. The painting shows a man and a woman standing in a field filled with flowers. They are wearing gold robes and have their arms around each other. The man leans down to kiss the woman.Klimt finished the painting in 1908. Until now, people who had trouble seeing could not appreciate the artwork. But thanks to the reproduction they can touch the piece andfeel the ridges and depressions. Andreas Reichinger started making 3-D versions of artwork in 2010. He said this reproduction was his most difficult project because the couple’s robes are so detailed.Dominika Raditsch is a blind museum visitor. She touched the reproduction. As she moved her hands around it she said, ”Exactly, can you see these? There are so many details.“ Raditsch said she can imagine what the original painting looks like when she touches the reproduc tion. “It’s somehow round. You can feel it. It comes with it. And in many places it’s so smooth. And then I think to myself: it probably shines too!” Raditsch said.The Belvedere is not the only museum to have 3-D versions of its artwork. Some of the pieces at the Prado, in Madrid, Spain, have reproductions that can be touched. But the piece in Vienna has one special part: it is made with widely available 3-D printing technology. That means one day, blind art fans anywhere in the world could download the source files and print the reproductions themselves.32. What is ”The kiss”?A. A popular painting B .A European Union project.C. A 3-D technology.D. A famous museum.33. Why did Reichinger say this reproduction was difficult to finish?A.The original artwork was made in 1908.B.The painting was reproduceddetailedly.C. Blind art fans can’t download the source.D. The 3-D technology is notavailable.34. How did Raditsch feel when she first touched the reproduction?A. Awkward.B. Puzzled.C. Nervous.D. Excited.35. What is the best title for the text?A. 3-D Printing Lets Blind Experience Famous PaintingB. A European Union Program for Museum VisitorsC. How to Reproduce the World-famous PaintingsD. A Special Museum for Art Fans in Vienna, Austria第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
