result of a three-year project organized by The Lancet health journal.Tim Lang,a professor at Britain’s University of London.He said,“The food we eat and how we produce it decide the health of people and the planet.”Lang added,“The world’s population is expected to grow to 10 billion people by 2050.If we want to feed everyone,we all need to change what we eat and the way we eat by improving food production and reducing food waste.”So,what do you eat on the “planetary health”diet?The scientists who created the “planetary health”diet say it is largely plant-based but still has a little

During the late 1960s, Americans experienced the unexpected side effects of high productivity of industry. Factories were giving out smoke while leaded petrol were used for vehicles, making air pollution increasingly severe.What moved Senator Nelson to action was the 1969 massive oil spill (溢出) in California, which had killed about 3,500 sea birds, besides sea animals like dolphins and seals, causing great public anger. Inspired by the student antiwar movement at that time, Nelson found it a proper time to channel the energy of the students towards a fight for environmental protection. And the sure-fire way was through public pressure. Thus Earth Day was born in 1970, and public environmental awareness took center stage.On 22nd April 1970, millions of Americans took to the streets to demonstrate for a sustainable environment and thousands of students marched against the worsening environment. Different groups were now working together for a shared goal ―environmental conservation and the effort became effective. The government took tougher measures and affected businesses were forced to follow standards.As environmental issues were not just localized ones but a global concern, the year 1990 saw Earth Day reach out to many more around the world. Earth Day 1990 helped pave the way for the 1992 United Nations Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro, bringing together many nations for a joint effort towards protecting the environment.For his role as founder of Earth Day, Senator Nelson was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom (1995), the highest honour in the USA, by then US President Clinton. We salute (致敬) the man, as the fight for cleaner environment continues.4.What motivated Senator Nelson to start Earth Day?A.High productivity of industry.B.Increasingly severe air pollution.C.The 1969 oil spill in the USA.D.The students’ involvement in war.5.What played an essential role in the birth of Earth Day?A. Students’ movement.B. Strict regulations.C. Government’s measures.D. Public pressure.6.In which year did Earth Day start to draw the world’s attention?A. 1970.B. 1990.C. 1992.D. 1995.7.What’s the main idea of the passage?A.The establishment of Earth Day.B.The effort of going green globally.C.Fighting for cleaner environment.D.Honoring the founder of Earth Day.Almost everyone agrees that art is important, but they disagree on whether governments, using taxpayers’ public money, should be funding it. Also, if governments do spend money on art, what artworks should they buy and for what purpose?Most governments purchase well-known artworks for public galleries, such as the Metropolitan in New York, the National Gallery in London, the Louvre in Paris and the Uffizi in Florence, which are all free to the public. Most people do not object to public money being spent on keeping great artworks available to the public eye. However, there are some types the public are often not so happy about supporting.In the 1980s when most people seemed to have lost interest in art, the Turner Prize was started in order to regain public’s attention again. This is a contemporary art award supported by taxpayers. In 1999, the Turner Prize came under great public criticism when Tracey Emin was shortlisted for the prize for her work called “My Bed”. “My Bed” was her actual bed which she had lain in for days following a relationship breakup. To some, this was a breakthrough and some visitors even jumped into the bed and rolled around. To others, it was simply a dive into the depths of human depravity (堕落).But is the kind of “work” done by Emin “art”? And should the public pay for it, especially when it is so controversial (有争议的)?Western art is certainly at a crossroads. Does it keep exploring the dark side or does it seek an ideal beauty? Perhaps the answer depends on the public at large and the values they hold. Many people were pleased when Richard Wright won the Turner Prize in 2009 with his fresco(壁画). Its artistic beauty, poetic nature and use of historic tradition might shows that society is looking for something more positive and “rooted” in its history again. If public money is spent on art, it is essential that the public play a key role in debating both art, and what art they are willing to pay for.8.Why are some galleries mentioned in Paragraph 2?A. They are well known worldwide.B. They appeal to the public.C. They offer free admission.D. They are publicly funded.9.What do we know about “My bed”?A. It’s a controversial painting.B. It caused opposing reactions.C. It seeks ideal beauty and truth.D. It goes against contemporary art. 10.Which word can best describe the public’s attitude to Wright’s fresco?A. Appreciative.B. Opposed.C. Doubtful.D. Unhappy.11.Who should have the final say on public investment in art according to the passage? A. Artists. B. The government.C.Taxpayers.D. Turner Prize winners.Victor Borge once wrote, “Laughter is the closest distance between two people.” Yet laughter isn’t always positive for relationships. Think of your friend laughing at your embarrassing mistake. This kind of unshared laughter can have the opposite effect.Now, a new study explores when laughter works as a social glue. While all genuine laughter may help us feel good, shared laughter may communicate to others that we have a similar worldview, which strengthens our relationships.Researchers at the University of North Carolina found a way to produce shared laughter to measure experimentally how it might impact a relationship with a stranger. Participants watched a funny, not-so-funny, or not-funny-at-all video while video-chatting with another same-sex participant. Unknown to them, the video chat displayed a pre-recorded clip (片段) of someone laughing the same amount for each of the two funny videos, but only smiling occasionally during the unfunny video. This produced more shared laughter in the first situation, less shared laughter in the second, and no shared laughter in the third. Afterwards, the participants then filled out questionnaires about their sense of similarity to their video partner, and how much they liked or wanted to get to know their video partner.Results showed that, across the different videos, the amount of shared laughter had consistent (一致的) effects on the participants’ sense of similarity to the video partner ―and that this, in turn, increased how much participants liked their partner and wanted tothat they see the world in the same way, and it momentarily improve their sense of connection,” says Sara Algoe, co-author of the study.How can we put these findings into practice? Algoe suggests that relationship partnersmay want to find opportunities to laugh together in order to boost closeness, especially before having difficult conversations. Likewise, shared laughter could be introduced into staff meetings to make people feel more on the same page and thus become more productive.12.What is the finding of the experiment?ughter creates distances.ughter is a reliable social glue.C.Unshared laughter has negative effect.D.Shared laughter brings closeness.13.What are the participants asked to do in the experiment?A.Record the reaction to the videos.B.Video chat with a same-sex stranger.C.Fill out questionnaires on the videos.ugh the same amount each time.14.Which is closest in meaning to the underlined phrase “affiliate with” in Paragraph 4? A. Connect with. B. Turn to. C. Agree with. D. Refer to.15.In which situation is shared laughter probably used according to Algoe?A. During a court meeting.B. After seeing a doctor.C. Before solving conflicts.D. When taking an exam.二、七选五16.Sometimes, it’s good to be bored“I am dying of boredom,” complains the young wife Yelena in Chekhov’s 1897 play Uncle Vanya. Of course, if Yelena were around today, we know what she would do: pull out her smartphone and find something fun. Today it is easy to get rid of boredom. ①________That is the finding of two fascinating recent studies. In one, researchers asked subjects to do something boring, like copying out numbers from a phone book, and then take tests of creative thinkings. The result? ②________ In the second study, subjects gave more answers to a word test than a non-bored control group after being forced to watch a dull screensaver.“An restless mind hungers for stimulation, so boredom becomes a seeking state,” says Sandi Mann, the psychologist at the University of Central Lancashire. “③________.” Parents will tell you that kids with “nothing to do” will eventually invent some fun gamesto play ― with a cardboard box, a light switch, whatever.The problem, the researchers worry, is that these days we don’t struggle to overcome these slow moments. “④________” Mann says. “This might relieve us temporarily, but it shuts down the deeper thinking.” So here is an idea: Instead of always avoiding boredom, embrace and face it. Sometimes, anyway. Mann has found she gets some of her best thinking done when she is driving her car and therefore can’t be distracted by her phone.⑤________ The good type inspires you to see what can come of it. The bad type, in contrast, tires you and makes you feel like you can’t be bothered to do anything. An important part of our modern task, then, is learning to evaluate these different types of boredom ― to distinguish the useful kind from the harmful one.A.And there is, of course, bad boredom.B.Bored subjects came up with more creative ideas.C.But what if boredom is a meaningful experience?D.These moments are a lot more valuable than expected.E.Actually, tips on getting away from boredom are countless.F.We try to kill every moment of boredom with mobile devices.G.When not satisfied with your state, you’re seeking and engaged.三、完形填空(15空)I hated that I was born with a cleft palate(腭裂). I clearly knew how ugly I looked toduring group testing. The “whisper test”, however, required a different kind of deceptionLeonard might say, maybe things like “The sky is blue.” or “Do you have breakfast?”.little girl.”17.A. bleeding B. injured C. misshapen D. smooth18.A. speech B. mood C. thought D. behaviour19.A. burned B. cut C. bitten D. rounded20.A. sufficient B. reliable C. worthwhile D. acceptable21.A. value B. desire C. ignore D. deserve22.A. encountered B. joined C. attracted D. amused23.A. mostly B. fortunately C. barely D. incredibly24.A. ugly B. outstanding C. kind D. different25.A. quitted B. cheated C. rejected D. failed26.A. follow B. permit C. request D. persuade27.A. pole B. cloth C. finger D. device28.A. insisted B. questioned C. argued D. wondered29.A. plugging B. taking C. catching D. breaking30.A. bent B. folded C. stuck D. backed31.A. desperately B. softly C. loudly D. coldly四、短文填空32.The Space-Time Painter, written by Chinese writer Hai Ya, has won the Hugo Award for Best Novelette at the 81st World Science Fiction Convention, ①________(hold) in Chengdu on October 18th to 23rd, 2023.

(共15小题,满分30分)AAs a boy I was always small for my age. I was also five years younger than one of my brothers and seven years younger than the other. As a result I often felt left out when their friends came over to play. I was either too small or too young for whatever they were doing and they didn't want theiryounger brother listening to their conversations either. More often than not I found myself outside playing alone andfeeling forgotten.I remember one spring afternoon feeling especially lonely as I sat in the yard behind our house. We lived miles fromtown and I hardly saw my own friends outside of school. Iheard my brothers laughing from inside the house and felt a single tear coming down my cheek. At that moment I saw a large brown dog walking over to me. He looked happy and his tail was wagging as well. Even though he didn't know me he greeted melike a long lost friend, licking(舔) my chin and sittingbeside me on the spring grass. It must have been at least an hour that I patted and talked to this four-legged angel. Helet me pour out all my troubles and share my deepest thoughts before he kissed my cheek goodbye and ambled off either to Heaven or his home. I went back inside feeling happy, knowingthat no matter what life may hold I was loved. Now over 40 years later I still remember that angel with a smile.I believe that God sent him at that moment of sadness to remind me just how much he loved me. There is nothing more important than knowing we are loved. When we are loved, we will learn to love others. Learning to love helps us to understand ourselves and other people better.1.How did the writer feel when his brothers’ friends came?A. Proud.B. Worried.C. Lonely.D. Happy.2.The writer shared his troubles and thoughts with the dog because ______.A. it was his friendB. it could understand himC. it looked like an angelD. it was friendly to him3.From Paragraph 2, we can learn that ______.A. the boy met a long lost friendB. the boy had no friends at schoolC. the dog spent the afternoon with the boy and his brothersD. the dog helped the boy realize that he was loved4.The author wrote the story to______.A. encourage people to talk about their troublesB. show knowing you are loved is the most importantC. tell people they should treat animals friendlyD. share his unforgettable experience with usBI am a good mother to three children. I have tried never to let my profession stand in the way of being a good parent.I no longer consider myself the center of the universe. I show up. I listen. I try to laugh. I am a good friend to my husband. I have tried to make marriage vows (誓约) mean what they say. I am a good friend to my friends, and they to me. Without them, there would be nothing to say to you today.So here's what I wanted to tell you today: get a life. A real life, not a desire of the next promotion (提升), the bigger paycheck, the larger house.Get a life in which you are not alone. Find people you love,and who love you. And remember that love is notleisure(休闲) but work. Pick up the phone. Send an email. Write a letter. And realize that life is the best thing and that you have no business taking it for granted.It is so easy to waste our lives,our days,our hours,and our minutes. It is so easy to exist instead of living. I learned to live many years ago. Something really,really bad happened to me,something that changed my life. If I had my choice,it would never have been changed at all. And what I learned from it is what,today,seems to be the hardest lesson of all.I learned to love the journey,not the destination. I learned to look at all the good in the world and tried to give some of it back because I believed in it,completely and totally. And I tried to do that,in part,by telling others what I had learned.By telling them this:read in the backyard with the sun on your face. Learn to be happy. And think of life as a deadly illness,because if you do,you will live with joy andpassion(豪情) as it ought to be lived.5. How did the author form her view of life?A.Through social experience.B.By learning from her friends.C.Through an unfortunate experience.D. From her children and husband.6. By the underlined sentence “It is so easy to exist instead of living.” in the fifth paragraph,the author really means that people tend to________.A.make a living rather than live a real lifeB.work rather than enjoy lifeC.waste a lot in lifeD.forget the most important lesson in life7. What’s the author’s attitude towards work?A.Do it well to serve others.B.Earn enough money to make life better.C.Try your best to get higher position and pay.D.Don’t let it affect your real life.8. It can be inferred from the passage that________.A.the author is a success in personal lifeB.the author doesn’t try her best to work wellC.the author spends all her time caring for her childrenD.the author likes traveling very muchCMom’s birthday present? It may be a difficult thing for some people, but for me, it is an easy thing. Mom loved s, so every year I sent her s. Actually she had a bed of irises (鸢尾花) in the backyard of her small, Indiana farm. They were beautiful. “Take some,” she said, “Dig some up and plant them on the side of your own ho use.”But in my yard they became lacking in energy. A year passed, then two, but not one appeared. I cut back all their green leaves. I was tired of seeing them so lonely. Finally, I dug the irises up and threw them away.About that time Mom died unexpectedly. My sister and I sold the farm. I never went back to see the irises. I just couldn’t stand seeing another family living in our home—Mom’s home. Autumn came, then winter. The following spring, as Mom’s birthday approached, I struggled with the questionof how to remember her. I stared out of the window and saw a few stubborn irises in my side yard sprouting (发芽), —tall, thin but less. Because of seeing them, I decided to order s as I always did on Mom’s birthday, and send them to my sister. I wished so badly I could still send s to Mom. But that was impossible.On the morning of Mom’s birthday, I was in my car ready to work. Something in the yard caught my eye. The irises! One had bloomed with s, big, showy and purple, as lovely as they ever had been on Mom’s farm. I smiled and turned my eyes upward. I could no longer send s to Mom. But somehow, she’d been able to send them to me.9.According to the first paragraph, Mom ________.A. didn’t like the presents from the authorB. wanted to give the author some sC. lived with the author on an Indiana farmD. got different birthday presents from the author every year10.At first, the irises in the author’s yard ________.A. all died quicklyB. grew as well as on Mom’s farmC. didn’t bloom at allD. grew bet ter than those on Mom’s farm11.What troubled the author?A. She didn’t know how to grow irises.B. She regretted they had sold Mom’s farm.C. She couldn’t bear others living in Mom’s home.D. She didn’t know what to do in memory of Mom.12.What can be learned from the last paragraph?A. All the irises in the author’s yard bloomed.B. The author went to see the irises in Mom’s yard.C. It was Mom who took care of these irises in the author’s yard.D. The author thought the blooming irises were gifts from Mom.DThe following are letters to the editor of a school newspaper.Dear editor,I’d like to express my opinion about grades. Students should be allowed to study without worrying about grades. Fortunately, most educators are becoming aware of the factthat students have different interests and abilities. I understand that grades are useful, but grades often limit creativity. Competing for better grades causes many students to turn down opportunities to pursue music, dramatics and sports. Grades force an arbitrary(果断的) standard of success on everyone. I do not demand as some extremists do, that grades be removed immediately. However, I do believe that less emphasis should be placed on grades. I hope that someday grades will become optional at Village High School.Magdalena SmithDrama ClubDear editor,I’d like to say something about grades. Let’s face the facts about grades. Grades perform three basic functions. First, grades motivate(激发) students to work at their highest level of competence(能力). Second, they act as a reward for hardworking students and as a punishment to students who do not work hard. Finally, grades are used as an effective standard by which to measure students’ achievement. Good grades help students to get jobs and to get into university. I've spoken with a number of students who have jobs, and most of them say that they were hired primarily on the basis of their grades. My grades helped me land a part-time job andwill help me get into university next year. I think grades are extremely important at Village High School.Simon HarperScience Club13.Which of the following is not Magdalena Smith’s opinion?A. Grades should not be used to measure a person’s success.B. Students may give up the chance to learn music and sports for grades.C. St udents’ creativity may not be developed for grades.D. Grades should be taken away at once.14.We can learn Simon Harper _____.A. is concerned about students' creativityB. believes in the benefits of good gradesC. doesn't work too hard at his studiesD. supports students' interests and abilities15.From the second letter, we can infer that Simon Harper is a/an_____.A. studentB. teacherC. headmasterD. advertiser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选项。

Lucinda talks with the customer face to faceD. all the customers don’t agree with what Lucinda wroteBWhen I got the driving license last summer, Mom and I took our first trip around an empty parking lot. Then I found that my mother was not the best teacher for me. It wasn't that she shouted, or told me that I was doing poorly. As you can imagine, my mother's "helpful instructions" only managed to make me more nervous.Since I could no longer practice with her, the job was placed in the hands of my father. The idea of learning from Dad was not one that thrilled me. I loved him dearly, but I just did not see Dad as someone I could be comfortable learning from. He almost never talked. We shared a typical father-daughter relationship. He'd ask how school was, and I'd say it was fine. Unfortunately, that was the most of our conversations. Spending hours alone with someone who might as well have been a stranger really scared me.As we got into the car that first time, I was not surprised at what happened. Dad and I drove around, saying almost nothing, aside from a few instructions on how to turn. As my lessons went on, however, things began to change. Dad would turn the radio up so I could fully appreciate his favorite Stones music. And he actually began talking. I was soon hearing about past failed dates, "basic body" gym class, and other tales from his past, including some of his first meeting with Mom.Dad’s sudden chattiness was shocking until I thought about why he was telling me so much in the car. In all the years that I had wondered why my father never spoke that much, I had never stopped to consider that it was because I had never bothered to listen. Homework, friends, and even TV had all called me away from him, and, consequently, I never thought my quiet father had anything to say.Since I began driving with him, my driving skill has greatly increased. More important, though, is that my knowledge of who my father is has also increased. Just living with him wasn't enough— it took driving with him for me to get to know someone who was a mystery.4.

According to Bracken Hendricks, a senior fellow at the Center for Global Progress, careers that promote environmental responsibility will become main stream within a decade. “The growth in green careers will be like the Internet boom, which not only created new jobs, but also had an influence on the overall economy,” he says.The increasing environmental problems and need for eco-friendly products and services are creating a new job section of green-collar jobs. Many countries of the world have realized the importance and need for energy-saving products and services. It is expected that by 2025 about 25% of the jobs in developed countries will be ofgreen-collar jobs. Doesn’t the data look promising for the future?Green-collar jobs have become a bright career chances for all. And jobs will pop up at every income level, from environmental manager to gardener. For example, many countries including the United States have understood that fossil fuels have negative effect on the environment which can later become a serious danger to mankind. As a result, possibilities are being explored to find alternatives to satisfy demands in a better way. The increasing demand of newer resources has creating the need for experts and researchers who can find better ways to deal with the ongoing needs. In addition, in order to meet the increasing demands of environment-friendly equipment, both green product designer and educated and trained workers are needed. Management of environmental organizations also demands a large number of environmental managers.Where can you find green-collar jobs? Internet is undoubtedly the best way to find information on almost any matter. Nowadays, different kinds of jobs are being posted online. Search through a couple of job websites to look for a bright future in energy conversion and recycling of waste management. Check regularly and find the right work for yourself. People who read newspapers can also find different kinds of green-collar jobs.8. Why does Bracken Hendricks mention the Internet Boom in Paragraph One?A. To explain the importance of technology.B. To provide evidence of his recent research.C. To inform us of the way of finding green-collar jobs.D. To indicate the bright future of green careers.9. Which of the following probably creates green-collar jobs?A. Promoting services.B. Developing new resources.C. Consuming fossil fuels.D. Training employees.10. What is mainly talked about in Paragraph 3?A. The requirements for green employees.B. The development of the green industry.C. The job chances in the environmental industry.D. The economic influence of green careers.11. The passage is written to _______.A. discuss eco-friendly servicesB. suggest ways of saving energy at workC. introduce promising career chancesD. explain the best method of finding jobsDBoys’ school s are the perfect place to teach young men to express their emotions and involve them in activities such as art, dance and music.Far from the traditional image of a culture of aggressive masculinity(男子气概),the absence of girls gives boys the chance to develop without pressure to be consistent to a stereotype(传统观念),a US study says.Boys at single-sex schools were said to be more likely to get involved in cultural and artistic activities that helped develop their abilities to express their emotions,rather than feeling they had to obey the“boy code”of hiding their emotions to be a “real man”.The findings of the study are against the received wisdom that boys do better when taught alongside girls.Tony Little,headmaster of Eton,warned that boys were being ignored by the British education system because it had become too focused on girls.He criticized teachers for failing to recognize that boys are actually more emotional than girls.The research argued that boys often perform badly in mixed schools because they become discouraged when their female peers do better earlier in speaking and reading skills.But in single-sex schools teachers can adjust lessons to boys’ learning style,letting them move around the classroom and getting them to compete in teams to prevent boredom,wrote the author of the study, A bigail James of the University of Virginia.Teachers could encourage boys to enjoy reading and writing with “boy-focused” approaches such as themes and characters that appeal to them.Because boys generally have sharper vision,learn best through touch, and are physically more active,they need to be given “hands-on”lessons where they are allowed to walk around.“Boys in mixed schools view classical music as feminine(女性的)and prefer the modern type in which violence and sexism are major themes.” James wrote.Single-sex education also made it less likely that boys would feel they had to give in to a stereotype that men should be “masterful and in charge” in relationships.“In mixed scho ols boys feel pressed to act like men before they understand themselves well enough to know what that means.” the study reported.12.The author believes that a single-sex school would .A.force boys to hide their emotions to be “real men”B.help to form masculine aggressiveness in boysC.encourage boys to express their emotions more freelyD.naturally place emphasis on the traditional image of a man to boys13.It is commonly believed that in a mixed school boys .A.perform betterB.grow up more healthilyC.behave more responsiblyD.receive a better education14.What does Tony Little say about the British education system?A.It fails more boys than girls academically.B.It focuses more on mixed school education.C.It fails to give boys the attention they need.D.It places more pressure on boys than on girls.15.According to Abigail James,one of the advantages of single-sex schools is .A. teaching can be designed to promote boys’ team spiritB.boys can focus on their lessons without being absent-mindedC.boys can choose to learn whatever they are interested inD. teaching can be adapted to suit the characteristics of boys第二节(共5小题;毎小题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,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

Deforestation speeds up climate change, which is worsening droughts in the Horn of Africa, including Kenya, where rains have failed for five seasons in a row. So the government has set aside more than $ 80 million this year, managing to augment tree coverage to more than 10%.“It is a moment for Kenyans to stand together in the defense of our environment,” said Soipan Tuya, the Environment Minister. He referred to the day as “a ‘hummingbird(s)’ contribution day”. Hummingbirds are small birds, but they play an important part in the environment by pollinating(授粉)flowers.He added, “H aving been planting trees for most of my life, I thought I was doing ratherwell, but the government’s plan to plant 15 billion trees by 2032 was ‘an unprecedented(史无前例的)show of promise by the government towards our climate action duties.’”8.What is the purpose of the public holiday?A.To increase economic income.

D.It is time to protect hummingbirds. 11.What is the best title for the text?A.Kenya Is Taking Action to Protect WildlifeB.Kenya Is in Face of Environmental ProblemsC.Kenya Improves Relationships with Their NeighborsD.Kenya Surprises the Public with a Holiday to Plant TreesDAre you a fan of birds? If so, you may have admired their beautiful colors and sweet songs. But do you know these feathered friends can actually do more than that?A new study published in the journal Scientific Reports finds that exposure to birds, either in the home or outdoors, can boost people’s moods.Researchers at King’s College London used a smartphone app built by the school’s Urban Mind project to collect the real-time feelings of study participants upon seeing or hearing a bird. A total of 1,292 people living in the United Kingdom, Europe, and the United States participated in the study which was conducted between April 2018 and October 2021.The app asked participants three times a day whether they could see or hear a bird followed by a series of questions on their mental well-being. Participants were also asked questions about whether they could see trees, plants or hear any water to see if people were experiencing better mental well-being due to being in or seeing nature, and not just because of exposure to birds.According to the study, the mental well-being of study participants with and without depression was significantly improved after seeing a bird or hearing birdsong compared to not seeing or hearing a bird.There is a growing number of studies that link spending time outdoors (either in green leafy places or next to bodies of water) to improved mental health. But there are few studies that look at how different aspects of nature can play into humans’ me ntal well-being.And while the study adds to the small pile of research on birds and mental health, the report marks the first time researchers have studied the responses to birds and mental well-being in real-time, according to Ryan Hammoud, lead author of the study.“They kind of examine nature as a single object when nature includes many different characteristics and features like trees, plants, water, birds,” said Hammoud, “We choose to focus on bird life to try and understand which specific characteristics of nature benefit mental well-being.”12.What is the purpose of paragraph 1?A.To introduce a phenomenon. B.To bring in the topic.C.To ask an interesting question. D.To provide background information. 13.How did the researchers conduct the study?A.By analyzing previous studies. B.By observing the behavior of birds.C.By gathering feelings of participants. D.By studying people’s effect on birds. 14.What does Hammoud think of the new study?A.Pioneering. B.Interesting. C.Conventional. D.Practical. 15.What is the main idea of the text?A.Bird watching has become a popular hobby.B.Exposure to birds can improve mental well-being.C.Nature is the best medicine for mental health issues.D.Spending time outdoors can impact mental health positively.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,选项中有两项为多余选项。

They put up their tents (帐篷) and then rode off to a forest to see how the trees were growing.In the afternoon when they were about ten kilometres from their camp(营地), it start-ed to snow. More and more snow fell. Soon Bob could hardly see his hands before his face. He could not find the road. Bob knew there were two roads. One road went to the camp, and the other went to his house. But all was white snow. Everything was the same. How could he take his friends back to the camp?Bob had an idea. The horses! Let the horses take them back! But what would hap-pen if the horses took the road to his house? That would be a trip of thirty-five kilometres in such cold weather!It was getting late. They rode on and on.

If not, you can do it right now because the clothes donation is becoming a trend( 趋势) in Urumqi.“From time to time, my mother clears out the clothes which I no longer wear. You know, we teenagers are growing fast. I think it’s a good way to help others. ” Lin Tao, a junior student says.“I often pick out some of my clothes which are out of style after going shopping. Then I’ll put them into the donation box. ” Miss Li, a pretty young lady says.“That seems like a good idea. Some clothes in the box are quite new. People can either wear them or use them to make things such as handbags and pencil cases.” Mrs. Wang, an old woman says, “Sometimes I also look through the box for some nice clothes.”However, there are some problems along with the popularity of clothes donation. Recently, a UTV reporter from Focus on the City has made a survey. Here are the results:◆ The box is full of clothes in a short time. There is no more room for people to give away clothes.◆ Some people sell the clothes in the donation box for making money instead of wearing them.◆ Some communities set the box in unsuitable places. So there are few clothes in it.◆ Many clothes are too old and shabby(破烂的).“What’s worse,” one of the staff in a community added, “We qutie often see people throw rubbishinto the box when they pass by. We’ve tried to stop them several times b ut failed. It has been the most serious problem since we set the box.”In order to make the donation box work in an efficient(有效的)way, our government is taking action. Clothes donation will be better-organized and it’ll be more convenient for people in need to take the clothes away.1. Miss Li gives away her clothes because .A. her clothes are out of styleB. her mother clears out her clothesC. she is growing too fastD. she wants to make something2. The reporter from UTV has collected .A. 4 problemsB. 5 problemsC. 6 problemsD. 7 problems3.

The underlined word “them” in Paragraph 4 means .A. the clothes donation boxesB. some clothes in the boxC. handbags and pencil casesD. the old people5. We can infer(推断) from the passage that .A. the clothes donation will be better-organized to help donators and people in needB. the clothes donation becomes less popular than before because of serious problemsC. the clothes donation can prevent some girls from wearing clothes that are out of styleD. the clothes donation gives the traders a good idea to sell old clothes for making money15.(10分)“Volunteering makes you look at the world differently. You see how little things can change a person’s life for the better, which makes everyone a better person.” Mason, a volunteer said.National Volunteer Week started in 1974 and is held every April. It is a time to thank volunteers for their achievements. It is also a perfect opportunity(机会) toencourage others to take their first step toward becoming a volunteer. Making the decision to take the first step can be the biggest problem, because they often wonder if they will be able to meet the organization’s expectations (期望). Some people fear not knowing anyone else in the group. Not having enough time also prevents some from sharing their abilities.The following tips can help if you have some of these worries.★ Start out slowly, don’t add too much pressure. Even a few hours a month can make a big difference in someone’s life.★ Choose an organization with the same interests and common values.★ Take part in a training meeting for new volunteers, even if it is not asked.★ Work with a veteran volunteer. He volunteered a lot, he can help you increase the confidence and completely understand the organization’s expectations.★ Invite a friend or family member to serve. It is a good experience to volunteer with them.★ Finally, it is most important to enjoy the volunteer experience and to remember that not all volunteer experiences are perfect. If one experience doesn’t work, don’t give up and you’ll surely find the right opportunit y.Spend some time on volunteer work and you will see great changes in people’s lives. As Mason discovered during his volunteer experience, “little things can change a person’s life.”1.

No thing can stop her.”Last year, Malala passed the entrance examination of Oxford University through her hard work.Before she finished her high school, she had written a book I am Malala. She said, “I hope the readers around the world have chances to read my book. My dream is that more and more people will realize it is extremely difficult for children and women in some areas to get education. Actually, my story is also the story of 61 million children. Every boy and every girl should have the right to go t o school. ”1. How old was Malala when she won the Nobel Prize for peace?A. 16.B. 17.C. 15.D. 14.2.

AChina’s hot word, tuhao, may be in Oxford English Dictionary.In Chinese, tu means rude and hao means rich. In recent years, people use this term to describe those who spend money in an unreasonable way. The word became more popular with Apple’s gold-colored iPhone, which is loved by China’s rich people. The color became knownas “tuhao golden”. The word is now often used to refer to people who have money but lack taste.There are two other Chinese hot words: dama and No Zuo No Die, which may also be taken in the dictionary. Dama, meaning middle-aged women, was first used in the Western media by the Wall Street Journal. Thousands of Chinese women were buying a large amount of gold when the gold price had gone down. Another phrase No Zuo No Die, meaning if you don’t do stupid things, they won’t come back to bite you, is also very popular. Other words, such as Maotai, Chinglish and dim sum have also been included in the dictionary.BBC World News recent ly made a special program called “Tuhao, let’s be friends!” “The frequent use of Chinglish by foreign media suggests that foreign people are looking more to the lifestyle and popular culture of China,” says Zhang Yiwu, professor of Beijing University.What does this trend suggest about the Chinese language’s influence?Xing Hongbing, a professor from Beijing Language and Culture University (BLCU) said “These show that Chinglish is now being accepted by the rest of the world and they play important roles in daily life of Chinese. Behind these Chinglish words and phrases are the Chinese culture. They are reflections of the changes and trends in the Chinese society and they help people from other countries to understand what’s happening in China.”21. Which of the following words is NOT a hot Chinglish word?A. DamaB. KaraokeC. TuhaoD. Dim sum22. The word “dama” becomes so popular because ________.A. they are wealthy middle-aged womenB. they bought gold crazily when the price was downC. they made the gold price upD. they worked on the Wall Street23. What does the frequent use of Chinglish by foreign media suggest?A. Foreigners want to know more about the lifestyle and culture of China.B. Foreign people found it funny.C. Chinese is one of the most important languages in the world.D. Chinese people are very friendly.BIt was needles that brought Anaelle Regneil to China. She was attracted by the “tiny silver needles that could smooth the pain of a patient” used in acupuncture(针刺疗法).Following her curiosity, the high student student in France who was learning Chinese about a decade ago, was eager to find out more about traditional Chinese medicine.She majored in both Chinese and Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM) at college. Then, considering TCM to be more developed in Britain, where there were a few private hospital of TCM, she did an internship(实习) at a TCM clinic in Leeds, Britain. That was where she heard about the scholarship of the first Confucius Institute for TCM.In 2013, she studied Chinese at the Confucius Institute in Leeds for three months, and won a scholarship. She then started a one-year internship in the Acupuncture Department of Heilongjiang University of Chinese Medicine in Harbin.“I thought at the beginning that with the knowledge and techniques of acupuncture, it would not be so difficult. After all, acupuncture should be the same everywhere, right?” the 27-year-old woman recalled. Before long, she found with dismay that she was wrong.Later on, she moved to the Internal Medicine Department, where she learned to give prescription(药方). Learning the properties, composition and curative effects of TCM was difficult but useful.And now she is in her third year of graduate studies supported by the local government in North east of China’s Heilongjiang Province.“I will go back to France to help those in need with my knowledge and skills”, Anaelle Regniel shared in a speech at the 2017 Confucius Institute Open Day in Beijing in September.24. What can we learn from the second paragraph?A. Acupuncture is very popular in France.B. Anaelle Regniel was curious about Chinese.C. Traditional Chinese Medicine holds great attraction for Anaelle Regniel.D. Anaelle Regniel came to China when she was in high school.25. Why did Anaelle Regniel do an internship in Britain?A. She couldn’t find a job in France.B. She was admitted into a university in Britain.C. She wanted to get a scholarship from the Confucius Institute.D. She could get more chances to learn Traditional Chinese Medicine.26. What does the underlined word “dismay”in Paragraph 5 probably mean?A. regret.B.depression.C.disturbance.D. confidence.27. Which of the following words can best describe Anaelle Regniel?A. Curious and thoughtful.B. Caring and stubborn.C. Determined and considerate.D. Hard-working and devoted.CI hardly remember my fourth-grade teacher’s name, but I do remember two things - math tests and Love That Dog.My fourth-grade teacher read many books to my class, but I only remember Love That Dog. Fourth grade is the time when your teacher reads books to you and you pretend not to like it - but there’s something about the way someone’s voice sounds when he’s reading aloud as if the story existed a little bi t more than it would if it were just in your head, and as if we weren’treading a book, but having a conversation.Love That Dog is about a kid named Jack. I remember his being the same age as the fourth-grade me and listening to his teacher read aloud to his class like the fourth-grade me. His class is working on a poetry(诗) unit, and he’s not excited about it. They’ve got to keep journals of what the teacher reads, and his first entry says poetry is for girls. I won’t summarize the whole book, but I’ll tell you that Jack’s last entry is different from the first.I always wondered if he really existed and wanted to find him and talk to him. I didn’t realize that I had already talked to him.As a fourth grader, Love That Dog stood out to me because it was re lated. It’s about a young kid with a dog who isn’t really into poetry, like me at the time. As Jack grew into poetry, I felt myself growing with him. It was a shared experience, as if we had been in the same class reading poetry together.A teacher once sa id, “Reading is like telepathy(心灵感应).” At the time, I thought he meant that you could understand the writer better by reading his works,, but now I’ve realized it’s a two-way street - the readers can feel understood, too, like the writer knows what his life is like. It’s a conversation. Writers write for the same reason that reasons read for - to feel like they are not alone.Everyone is looking to be understood, and I caught it in Love That Dog.28.When the teacher read Love That Dog to the class, the author ______.A. didn’t like the story at firstB. wanted to chat with the teacherC. preferred the story to be read aloudD. thought there was something more in the story29. What can we learn about Jack from Paragraph 3?.A.He is interested in poetry.B. His entries are always the same.C.He is the same age as the fourth-grade author.D. He is in the same class as the author.30. Why did the book Love That Dog leave a deep impression on the author?.A.It reminded the author of himself.B. It made the author fall in love with poetry.C. The author got much experience of growing up from it.D. The author wanted to be a boy like the leading character in it.31. In the author’s opinion, writers produce their works with the purpose of _______.A. improving their telepathyB. being understood by othersC. describing different ways of lifeD. having quarrels with readersDAccording to new research from the University of Cambridge in England, sheep are able to recognize human faces from photographs.The farm animals, who are social and have large brains, were previously known to be able to recognize one another, as well as familiar humans. However, their ability to recognize human faces from photos alone is novel.The recent study, the results of which were published in the journal Royal Society showed that the woolly creatures could be trained to recognize still images of human faces, including those of former President Barack Obama and actress Emma Watson.Initially, the sheep were trained to approach certain images by being given food rewards. Later, they were able to recognize the image for which they had been rewarded. The sheep could even recognize images of faces shown at an angle, though their ability to do so declined by about 15 percent –the same rate at which a human’s ability to perform the same task declines.“Anyone who has spent time working with sheep will know that they are intelligent, individual animals who are ab le to recognize their handlers,” said Professor Jenny Morton, who led the Cambridge study. “We’ve shown with our study that sheep have advanced face-recognition abilities, comparable with those of humans and monkeys.”Recognizing faces is one of the most important social skills for human being,and some disorders of the brain, including Huntington’s disease, affect this ability.“Sheep are long-lived and have brains that are similar in size and complexity to those of some monkeys. That means they can be useful models to help us understand disorders of the brain, such as Huntington’s disease, which develops over a long time and affects cognitive abilities. Our study gives us another way to monitor how these abilities change.” Morton said.32. According to th e new research, what’s unusual about sheep?A. They have large brains.B.They can recognize human faces from photograph.C. They can recognize their owners.D. They can tell animals from humans.33. How did the researchers train the sheep?A. By giving food rewards.B. By showing photos of humans and monkeys by turns.C. By guiding them to follow their handlers.D. By showing photos of famous people.34. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Sheep have a higher face-recognition ability than monkeys.B. The sheep’s face-recognition ability may prevent some disorders of the brain.C. The sheep’s face-recognition ability says the same when shown photos at any angle.D. The new discovery is beneficial to the study of cognitive ability changes.35. What’s th e best title of the passage?A. A Wonderful Scientist.B. How Sheep Recognize Each Other.C. A New discovery about Sheep.D. The Life of Sheep..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。
