During this ritual, an (31) _______ large and heavy cart was rolled through the streets loaded with the wooden idol（神像）of the god Jagannath. Devotees（信徒）of the god would sometimes throw themselves before the cart to be crushed and killed beneath its weight. In the reverend’s letter, the name of the god was spelled “juggernaut,” which is the form of the word we know today. The term is now used to describe a “huge, powerful and overwhelming force or institution.”The last twenty years has seen the birth of a new technological juggernaut with the (32) _______ of the internet, one that holds huge significance for questions (33) _______ privacy as well as control over our very identities.For most people today, attending to social media (34) _______ a good deal of their time.

Even if these “deepfakes” can later be revealed as false,people’s lives or (40) _______ could have already been ruined as a result.Ⅲ.

A. inspiring B. amazing C. discouraging D. appealingSection BDirections: Read the following two passages. Each passage is followed by several questions. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)Many people experience problems with their spine（脊椎）as they age. The tissue that protects the joints in the spine gradually breaks down. As a consequence, the bones, in the spine begin to rub against each other. This further harms that issue as well as the bones. The result is pain in the joints and, sometimes, in nerves near the spine.This painful problem is actually a disease called osteoporosis. Some people are more at risk of osteoporosis because of genes that they inherited from their ancestors. Extremely heavy people are also more likely to suffer from this disease because their extra weight puts much pressure on their joints. fortunately, there are steps that people can take to help prevent osteoporosis from developing in their spine.The most important step is exercise. Stretches can help the muscles around the spine relaxand allow bones to shift into better alignment（排列）, Strength exercises with light weights or body-weight exercises like push-ups can also help by strengthening the muscles around the spine. However, people should not overdo these exercises as repeated motions can strain the muscles around the spine. Trying to lift heavy weights with poor technique can have the same effect.Another important factor is diet. It affects the health of spine because many vitamins are necessary for bones and nerves: These include B vitamins and omega-3 fatty acids, all of which helps keep nerves healthy. People can get more B vitamin and omega 3 fatty acids by taking supplements sold by stores. Another important factor is vitamin D. which is essential for strong bones. All of these vitamins and acids can be obtained from food. Thus people can help themselves by including them in their daily diets.56. What does this article mainly explain?A. Various aspects of a medical condition.B. The actions of viruses that cause illnesses.C. Drugs often used to solve the physical issue.D. The location of organs in the human body.57.

What can readers find in this article?A. A warning about working out too hard.B. A method for improving sleep quality.C. A slogan used to promote health classes.D. A big criticism often aimed at doctors.59. What does the article imply about supplement?A. They are mainly for youngsters.B. They are commercial products.C. they are now being researched.D. They are seldom truly effective(B)Want to explore new cultures, meet new people and do something worthwhile at the same time? You can do all the three with Global Development Association (GDA). Whatever stage of lifeyou’re at, wherever you go and whatever project you do in GDA, you’ll create positive changes in a poor and remote community.We work with volunteers of all ages and backgrounds.

The shared goal of GDA’s projects is to _______.A. explore new culturesB. protect the environmentC. gain corporate benefitsD. help communities in need(C)By the end of the century, if not sooner, the world’ socea us will be bluer and greener thanks to a warming climate, according to a new study.At the heart of the phenomenon lie tiny marine microorganisms called phytoplankton. Because of the way light reflects off the organisms, these phytoplankton create colourful patterns at the ocean surface. Ocean colour varies from green to blue, depending on the type and concentration of phytoplankton. climate change will fuel the growth of phytoplankton in some areas, while reducing it in other spots, reading to changes in the ocean’s appearance.Phytoplankton live at the ocean surface, where they pull carbon dioxide into the ocean while giving off oxygen. When these organisms die, they bury carbon in the deep ocean, an important process that helps to regulate the global climate. But phytoplankton are vulnerable to the ocean’s warming trend. Warming changes key characteristics of the ocean and can affect phytoplankton growth, since they need not only sunlight and carbon dioxide to grow, but also nutrients.Stephanie Dutkiewicz, a scientist in MIT’s Center for Global Change Science, built a climate model that projects changes to the oceans throughout the century. In a world that warms up by 3Ⅲ, it foudn that multiple changes to the colour of the oceans would occur. The model projects that currently blue areas with little phytoplankton could become even bluer. But in some waters, such as those of the Arctic, a warming will make conditions riper for phytoplankton, and these areas will turn greener. “Not only are the quantities of phytoplankton in the ocean changeing,” she said, “but the type of phytoplankton is changing.”And why does that matter? Phytoplankton are the base of the food web. If certain kindsbegin to disappear from the ocean, Dutkiewicz said, “it will change the type of fish that will be able to survive.” Those kinds of changes could affect the food chain.Whatever colour changes the ocean experiences in the coming decades will probably be too gradual and unnoticeable, but they could mean significant changes. “It’ll be a while before we can statistically show that the changes are happening because of climate change,” Dutkiewicz said, “but the change in the colour of the ocean will be one of the early warning signals what we really have changed our planet.”63. What are the first two paragraphs mainly about ?A. The various patterns at the ocean surface.B. The cause of the changes in ocean colour.C. The way light reflects off marine organisms.D. The efforts to fuel the growth of phytoplankton.64. What does the underlined word “vulnerable” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. Sensitive.B. Beneficial.C. Significant.D. Unnoticeable.65. What can we learn from the passage?A. Phytoplankton play a declining role in the marine ecosystem.B. Dutkiewicz’s model aims to project phytoplankton changes.C. Phytoplankton have been used to control global climate.D. Oceans with more phytoplankton may appear greener.66. What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To assess the consequences of ocean colour changes.B. To analyse the composition of the ocean food chain.C. To explain the effects of climate change on oceans.D. To introduce a new method to study phytoplankton.(D)Artificial intelligence has been used widely in sports. Among other applications, it has been taught to recognize key moments during matches by analyzing both sounds and images.Now the U. S. Tennis Association (USTA) is using AI to assist in aiding top players. Using IBM’s Watson program, the USTA’s high-performance coaching division has been digesting thousands of hours of video footage. Their aim is to create customized training reports for top professionals and junior players.AI can quickly digest meta-data（元数据）and learn how to process and analyze it. _____67_____“We are treating video like a rich data source,” said Elizabeth O’Brien, program director of IBM Sports & Entertainment partnerships. “How can we actually see all the things that are hidden in video and turn them into data?”Martin Black-man, the USTA’ sg eneral manager of player development, said the data has helped create a new statistic. _____68____ “We are able to look at a player’s acceleration（加速）and speed over the course of the match and show them how their court position improves when they are moving at an optimal（最优的）level,” he said.____69____ For a typical 90-minute match, a “tagger（做标注者）” would spend two hours pulling out unforced errors（非受迫性失误）and even identifying the exact time of the start and end of each point. By contrast, Watson takes two minutes to do that while analyzing trends and patterns. That means the USTA can deliver nearly instant analysis to players shortly after their matches.The coaching supplement to AI is the brainchild of Stephen Hammer, IBM’s sports CTO. He helped develop the highlights program and realized it could be used to help with player development._____70_____ The program created the trailer（预告片）for the horror movie Morgan, with AI determining the most emotional scenes that were used in that preview.Similarly, Watson can go through a match and, after being instructed what to look for,quickly pull out what is required for the coaches. For example, Black-man instructed Watson to focus on points after unforced errors to see whether a player performed better, the same or worse.Ⅲ.

2019-2020年高二上学期10月月考试题英语含答案

2019-2020年高二上学期10月月考试题英语含答案第一部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节：（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）AWhen my friend Lesa was diagnosed(诊断) with cancer, another friend and I went to the hospital to spend some time with her. We bought her a small toy and named him Lemon－Aide. We gave Lemon－Aide to Lesa and told her he was to go with her to all of her treatments to remind her that we were thinking of her and caring about her even though we could not always be with her. When the treatments were pleted, she said when someone else needed him she would pass him along.A few months later，much to my surprise, it was me that she passed him to. Lemon－Aide went with me to all of my treatments.One day while waiting for my doctor I decided we could market the idea to fight cancer. Lesa thought it was a great idea so we founded the organization that came to be known as Lemon－Aide' s Friends, Inc. We designed our organization to remind people fighting cancer that there are people who love and care about them all the time. Today we have totally 5013 volunteers. The money raised is donated to cancer patients who do not have insurance. The physicians on our Board of Advisors determine how and where our money is donated.Lemon－Aide is for men, women, and children of all ages and to date has been sent to 34 states and 33 countries to provide smiling support for people fighting cancer. When life gave us lemons we made Lemon－Aide, a soft smiling toy that represents love, support, and encouragement.1．The author went to the hospital with her friend ________．A．to operate on Lesa B．to treat her diseaseC．to acpany Lesa D．to look after Lemon－Aide2．Lesa was given a small toy because ________．A．he represented her organization B．he could help weaken her painC．she would think of her friends D．her friends tried to fort her3．It can be inferred that ________．A．the author had suffered from cancerB．Lemon－Aide had suffered from cancerC．Lesa had recovered from cancerD．Lemon－Aide learned to look after the author4．Lesa and the author formed an organization to ________．A．cure cancer B．raise money C．help cancer patients D．help their friendBDo you often feel lonely? What do you do when you feel that way? Hide yourself away and spend your time reading, watching TV or walking around?You might think that feeling lonely is just like feeling happy, sad or scared —that it’s just one of your various moods. That is true. However, if you let yourself be lonely for too long without dealing with it, you could be making a serious mistake.Doctors have known for some time that feeling lonely is bad for the mind. It can lead to mentalhealth problems such as depression, stress and reduce confidence. “Being lonely means not feeling connected or cared for, but it’s not about being mentally alone,” Lisa Jaremka, scientist from Ohio State University, US, told Live Science in January. And there’s growing evidence that not having friends is connected with physical illness as well.In xx, for example, scientists studied 2,800 women who had cancer. They found that those who had few friends or family were five times more likely to die of their disease than women with many social contacts. Also, even healthy people had a better chance of falling ill if they felt left out by others, according to the BBC.The results have scientists thinking that loneliness might hurt the immune system(免疫系统), which protects the body from diseases.Hoping to prove this theory, Jaremka and her research team put volunteers(志愿者) through a stress test. During the test, volunteers were asked to make an unprepared speech in front of a group of stony-faced people. The researchers found that volunteers who said they were lonely in their daily lives felt more stress during the test. And their blood samples showed that all the stress had managed to cause harmful changes to their immune system.“Loneliness has been thought of in many ways as a chronic stressor(慢性增压器) —a socially painful situation that can last for quite a long time, ”explained Jaremka, who led the study.The number of people suffering from loneliness is increasing all over the world. However, solving the problem is easier said than done. It won’t work to just “tell anyone to go out and find someone to love you”, said Jaremka. “We need to create support networks.”5．If people feel lonely for a long time, ________.A. they won’t feel happy anymoreB. they are more mentally harmed than physicallyC. they will find the feeling goes away by itselfD. they are more likely to fall ill6．What was the purpose of the stress test carried out by Jaremka’s team?A. To find out how people fight diseases.B. To prove loneliness hurts people’s immune systems.C. To find out the relationship between loneliness and stress.D. To see how people’s emoti ons change when they give unprepared speeches.7．We can conclude from the article that ________.A. loneliness has bee the No. 1 killer in the worldB. loneliness is increasing due to advanced technologiesC. websites must be set up to help people deal with lonelinessD. much more work needs to be done to fight lonelinessCI told my friend Graham that I often cycle two miles from my house to the town centre but unfortunately there is a big hill on the route. He replied, “You mean fortunately.” He explained that I should be glad of the extra exercise that the hill provided.My attitude to the hill has now changed. I used to plain as I approached it but now I tell myself the following. This hill will exercise my heart and lungs. It will help me to lose weight and get fit. It will mean that I live longer. This hill is my friend. Finally I fort myself with the thought of all those silly people who pay money to go to a gym and sit on stationery exercise bicycles when I can get the same value for free. I have a smile of satisfaction as I reach the top of the hill.Problems are there to be faced and overe. We cannot achieve anything with an easy life. Helen Keller was the first deaf and blind person to gain a university degree. Her activism and writing proved inspir ational. She wrote, “Character cannot be developed in ease. Only through experiences of suffering can the soul be strengthened, vision cleared, ambition inspired and success achieved.”One of the main determinants of success in life is our attitude towards adversity (逆境). From time to time we all face hardships, problems, accidents and difficulties. Some are of our making but many are no fault of our own. While we cannot choose the adversity, we can choose our attitude towards it.Douglas Bader was 21 when in 1931 he had both legs cut off following a flying accident．He was determined to fly again and went on to bee one of the leading flying aviators in the Battle of Britain with 22 aerial victories over the Germans．He was an inspiration to others during the war. He said, “Don’t listen to anyone who tells you that you can’t do this or that. That’s nonsense. Make up your mind, you’ll never use crutches (拐杖) or a stick, and then have a go at everything. Go to school, and join in all the games you can. Go anywhere you want to. But never, never let them persuade you that things are too difficult or impossible.”The biographies (传记) of great people are full of examples of how they took steps to overe the difficulties they faced. The mon thread is that they did not bee depressed. They chose their attitude. They chose to be positive. They took on the challenge. They won.Nevertheless, there is still the problem of how you change your attitude towards adversity.8. Which of the following is true according to the author of the passage?A. Going to a gym is greatly beneficial to people’s health.B. Climbing hills on bicycles is the best way to take exercise.C. Those who want to achieve success can’t expect to live an easy life.D. People’s attitude to adversity i s the only factor of their success.9. By quoting what Douglas Bader said, the author intends to tell us “ .”A. Nothing is difficult to the man who will try.B. A bad workman quarrels with his tools.C. If you risk nothing, you will have nothing.D. Failure is the mother of success．10. Following this passage, the author will further talk about .A. how his friend helped him to change his attitude towards the adversity he facedB. why it is important to keep optimistic in face of adversityC. what steps to take to change your attitude towards the adversity you faceD. what great people have in mon11. Which of the following can best function as the title of the passage?A. Life is full of adversityB. Different attitudes towards adversityC. Nothing is impossibleD. Face adversity with a smileDAmong all the fast growing science and technology, the research of human genes, or biological engineering as people call it, is drawing more and more attention now. Sometimes it is a hot topic discussed by people.The greatest thing that gene technology can do is to cure serious diseases that doctors at present can almost do nothing with, such as cancer and heart disease. Every year, millions of people are murdered by these two killers. And to date, doctors have not found an effective way to cure them. But if the gene technology is applied, not only these two diseases can be cured pletely, bringing happiness and moreliving days to the patients, but also the great amount of money people spend on curing their diseases can be saved, therefore it benefits the economy as well. In addition, human life span (寿命) can be prolonged.Gene technology can help people to give birth to more healthy and clever children. Some families, with the English imperial (皇家的) family being a good example, have hereditary diseases. This means their children will for sure have the family disease, which is a great trouble for these families. In the past, doctors could do nothing about hereditary diseases. But gene technology can solve this problem perfectly. The scientist just need to find the wrong gene and correct it, and a healthy child will be born.Some people are worrying that the gene research can be used to manufacture human beings in large quantities. In the past few years, scientists have succeeded in cloning a sheep, therefore these people predict that human babies would soon be cloned. But I believe cloned babies will not e out in large quantities, for most couples in the world can have babies in very normal way. Of course, the government must take care to control gene technology.12. What does “them” in the second paragraph refer to ?A. People with cancer or heart disease.B. Millions of people with serious diseases.C. Some diseases doctors can do nothing with.D. The two illnesses of cancer and heart disease13. What can gene technology do according to paragraph three?A. It can help the English imperial family out.B. It can be used to clone human babies.C. It can help people to give birth of a baby.D. It is likely to treat hereditary diseases.14. What are people worried about according to the passage?A. Human babies may be cloned in a large scale.B. Healthy human babies will soon be cloned.C. Scientists may well find the wrong genes.D. The government may not control gene techs.15. This passage is mainly written to _________________.A. show gene technology will benefit peopleB. show gene technology will do harm as wellC. tell that gene technology is a hot topicD. tell that gene technology is growing fast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。

2019-2020年高二上学期第一次(10月)月考英语试题含答案

2019-2020年高二上学期第一次（10月）月考英语试题含答案第二部分阅读理解(共两节，满分40分)第一节(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)I was in a shopping mall recently, and I decided to go and get a cup of tea. As I was making my way to the coffee shop, I noticed an old gentleman rather poorly dressed sitting on a bench nearby. I knew from the first sight that he was in need of some kind of help. He had a little lunch in front of him and was wholeheartedly enjoying it.There was a young man in front of me in the line also waiting to be served. The young man handed the servant a twenty-dollar bill and asked for an orange juice as well as a favor. The servant looked at the young man with a little surprise, not fully understanding him. The young man asked her to give the juice to the old gentleman eating his lunch outside on the bench. The young man also told her that he would be watching every second so that she would be pletely safe at all times. Later, there was a wonderful exchange (交换) between the waitress and the old man. I only wished I had taken a photo of the smiles on both of their faces.As I was thinking about this event later on, I wondered why the young man didn’t just perform this act of kindness himself. I thought he was hoping that this act of kindness might inspire others to do something for the old man as well. Thinking of the happy smiles on the old man’s face, I felt how worthwhile it is to help others.21. The underlined word “favor” in Para. 2 refers to .A. passing the young man a cup of orange juiceB. buying lunch for the old manC. giving the juice to the old manD. exchanging meals with the old man22. Which of the following can be used to describe the young man?A. Humorous and helpful.B. Generous and proud.C. Rich and friendly.D. Kind and considerate.23. In the author’s opinion, the young man asked the servant to take the juice to the old man so that .A. more people would be inspired to do good deedsB. he would bee famous for his good deedC. the old man could probably accept itD. he would bee a friend of the servantBThe Horn of Plenty is one of the largest natural health food stores within the Greater Hamilton area. We are big supporters of buying locally and we are here to tell you why it is so important for your family, the munity and the environment.The concept (概念) of buying locally is simple: buy food produced, grown, or raised as close to your home as possible. Not only will your food be fresher and tastier, but you are helpingprotect the environment and are supporting businesses within your munity and reducing pollution.Better for the environmentSustainability (持续性) and global warming are such hot topics at the moment, and many people want to do their bit to help support a healthier environment. Small action carried out by many people can make a big difference. Most materials in an average North American meal have traveled about 1,500 miles to get from farm to plate. To cut out a big part of this travel would greatly reduce not only pollution from transportation and refrigeration but also customers’ expenses as well.Taste and nutritional contentLocally-grown fruits and vegetables are usually sold within 24 hours of being harvested. Because they are picked at the height of ripeness (成熟) and travel only a short distance to the market, their freshness, nutrition, and flavor are kept. Produce trucked in from far away may lose both taste and nutritional content.munity and home valuesWhen you buy direct from a farmer or buy locally-grown foods, you are engaging in a time-honored tradition between a grower and an eater. You also help keep dollars within your munity.24. It can be inferred from the third paragraph that .A. global warming is the most serious problem nowB. the increased cost of transporting food is passed on to the customersC. North American food is rich in various kinds of materialsD. most people support buying locally25. Locally-grown fruits and vegetables taste good mostly because .A. they are sent to the market at a high speedB. they are not polluted by chemical fertilizerC. they can be harvested at any timeD. they are picked when they are fully grown26. According to the author, when you buy locally-grown foods .A. you can see how fruits and vegetables growB. you will bee much healthier and prettierC. you will contribute to protecting the environmentD. you are making money from your munity27. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. The benefits of buying locally.B. The popularity of the Horn of Plenty.C. The importance of protecting the environment.D. The way to keep your food tasty and healthy.CPeople often say that money talks. They mean that a person with a lot of money can say how he or she wants things done. But it is not easy to earn enough money to gain this kind of power.Sometimes people in business feel businesses are as dangerous as wild animals in a jungle. They have to be careful if they are to survive the jungle out there. They must not be led into making bogus investments (投资). Bogus means something that is not real. It was said that the word came from a criminal (罪犯) whose name was Borghese. Borghese wrote checks to people although he didn’t have money. After he wrote the checks, he would disappear. So, people who were paid with his checks received nothing.People trying to earn money also must be aware of being ripped off. A person who is ripped off has had something stolen, or at least has been treated unfairly. To keep from getting ripped off in business, people had better try to earn money step by step instead of getting rich quickly.To be successful, a person in business works hard and tries to get down to brass tacks. For example, a salesman may talk about his product without saying the price. You get down to brass tacks whe n you say, “It sounds good, but how much does it cost?” Word experts thought the expression came from sailors on ships. They cleaned the bottom of a boat. After they finished, they were down to the brass tacks, the copper pieces that held the boat together. So, if we get down to brass tacks, we can avoid rip-offs and bogus ways of earning money.28. What would happen to those people who make bogus investments?A. They would lose a lot of money.B. They would disappear after that.C. They would receive nothing but checks.D. They were more likely to be punished by law.29. The best way to avoid being ripped off in business is to .A. work as hard as possibleB. ask for checks in advanceC. avoid being wealthy eagerlyD. earn as more money as you can30. When doing business, people prefer to get down to brass tacks to .A. keep themselves from being fooledB. develop more ways of earning moneyC. reduce their production costsD. get in touch with more partners31. In which part of a newspaper can we find this passage?A. News and business.B. The history of language.C. Words and their stories.D. Funny new expressions.DMore often than not, people will look at the phone screen to check for new messages or have a quick look at Facebook. Researchers have now found why we often feel such a strong need to look at our phones. Using the mobile phone, they say, is contagious (蔓延的).A team says people are twice as likely to pull out their phones to check their text messages or e-mails if they’re with someone that has just done the same. They also found that women weremore likely to use their mobile phones than men. The team watched students in dining halls and coffee shops around the college, observing pairs of college students sitting at tables for as long as 20 minutes and recording their cellphone use. “What we found most interesting was just how often people were using their mobile phones,” Dr. Daniel Kruger, the study’s co-author, said. “Every person we studied used his or her phone at least once while one woman was on hers about half of the time. People saw others checking their ining messages and began to check their own.”“Cellphones create another choice for one’s attention and may both support and di sagree with live social activities,” the researchers wrote. Kruger believed this could be explained by the effects of social inclusion (包含) and exclusion (排除). If one person in a pair starts a conversation through his phone, the other one may feel excluded and then feel the need to get in touch with others so as not to feel left out.The researchers note that they might not get the same result in a study of different people—for example, older adults, who may not have a habit of using cellphones so often.32. From the study we can learn that .A. people can affect each other in using mobile phonesB. using mobile phones has nothing to do with social activitiesC. men are more likely to be affected by others’ using mobile phonesD. the sound of mobile phones makes using mobile phones contagious33. If old adults are studied, the researchers .A. will find that old adults don’t like to use mobile phonesB. will find that mobile phones are harmful to healthC. will no longer like using mobile phonesD. may reach a different result34. Which can best describe the author’s attitude towards using mobile phones?A. Supportive.B. Objective.C. Indifferent.D. Opposed.35. Which can be the best title for the passage?A. How to use mobile phones correctlyB. Why college students like mobile phonesC. Relation between mobile phones and people’s hobbiesD. Something interesting about the habit of using mobile phones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。

During this ritual, an (31) _______ large and heavy cart was rolled through the streets loaded with the wooden idol（神像）of the god Jagannath. Devotees（信徒）of the god would sometimes throw themselves before the cart to be crushed and killed beneath its weight.

A. inspiring B. amazing C. discouraging D. appealingSection BDirections: Read the following two passages. Each passage is followed by several questions. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)Many people experience problems with their spine（脊椎）as they age. The tissue that protects the joints in the spine gradually breaks down. As a consequence, the bones, in the spine begin to rub against each other. Thisfurther harms that issue as well as the bones. The result is pain in the joints and, sometimes, in nerves near the spine.This painful problem is actually a disease called osteoporosis. Some people are more at risk of osteoporosis because of genes that they inherited from their ancestors. Extremely heavy people are also more likely to suffer from this disease because their extra weight puts much pressure on their joints. fortunately, there are steps that people can take to help prevent osteoporosis from developing in their spine.The most important step is exercise. Stretches can help the muscles around the spine relax and allow bones to shift into better alignment（排列）, Strength exercises with light weights or body-weight exercises like push-ups can also help by strengthening the muscles around the spine. However, people should not overdo these exercises as repeated motions can strain the muscles around the spine. Trying to lift heavy weights with poor technique can have the same effect.Another important factor is diet. It affects the health of spine because many vitamins are necessary for bones and nerves: These include B vitamins and omega-3 fatty acids, all of which helps keep nerves healthy. People can get more B vitamin and omega 3 fatty acids by taking supplements sold by stores. Another important factor is vitamin D. which is essential for strong bones. All of these vitamins and acids can be obtained from food. Thus people can help themselves by including them in their daily diets.56. What does this article mainly explain?A.

The shared goal of GDA’s projects is to _______.A. explore new culturesB. protect the environmentC. gain corporate benefitsD. help communities in need(C)By the end of the century, if not sooner, the world’ socea us will be bluer and greener thanks to a warming climate, according to a new study.At the heart of the phenomenon lie tiny marine microorganisms called phytoplankton. Because of the way light reflects off the organisms, these phytoplankton create colourful patterns at the ocean surface. Ocean colour varies from green to blue, depending on the type and concentration of phytoplankton. climate change will fuel the growth of phytoplankton in some areas, while reducing it in other spots, reading to changes in the ocean’s appearance.Phytoplankton live at the ocean surface, where they pull carbon dioxide into the ocean while giving off oxygen. When these organisms die, they bury carbon in the deep ocean, an important process that helps to regulate the global climate. But phytoplankton are vulnerable to the ocean’s warming trend. Warming changes key characteristics of the ocean and can affect phytoplankton growth, since they need not only sunlight and carbon dioxide to grow, but also nutrients.Stephanie Dutkiewicz, a scientist in MIT’s Center for Global Change Science, built a climate model that projects changes to the oceans throughout the century. In a world that warms up by 3℃, it foudn that multiple changes to the colour of the oceans would occur. The model projects that currently blue areas with little phytoplankton could become even bluer. But in some waters, such as those of the Arctic, a warming will make conditions riper for phytoplankton, and these areas will turn greener. “Not only are the quantities of phytoplankton in the ocean changeing,” she said, “but the type of phytoplankton is changing.”And why does that matter? Phytoplankton are the base of the food web. If certain kinds begin to disappear from the ocean, Dutkiewicz said, “it will change the type of fish that will be able to survive.” Those kinds of changes could affect the food chain.Whatever colour changes the ocean experiences in the coming decades will probably be too gradual and unnoticeable, but they could mean significant changes. “It’ll be a while before we can statistically show that the changes are happening because o f climate change,” Dutkiewicz said, “but the change in the colour of the ocean will be one of the early warning signals what we really have changed our planet.”63. What are the first two paragraphs mainly about ?A. The various patterns at the ocean surface.B. The cause of the changes in ocean colour.C. The way light reflects off marine organisms.D. The efforts to fuel the growth of phytoplankton.64. What does the underlined word “vulnerable” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. Sensitive.B. Beneficial.C. Significant.D. Unnoticeable.65. What can we learn from the passage?A. Phytoplankton play a declining role in the marine ecosystem.B. Dutkiewicz’s model aims to project phytoplankton changes.C. Phytoplankton have been used to control global climate.D. Oceans with more phytoplankton may appear greener.66. What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To assess the consequences of ocean colour changes.B. To analyse the composition of the ocean food chain.C. To explain the effects of climate change on oceans.D. To introduce a new method to study phytoplankton.(D)taught to recognize key moments during matches by analyzing both sounds and images.Now the U. S. Tennis Association (UST A) is using AI to assist in aiding top players. Using IBM’s Watson program, the USTA’s high-performance coaching division has been digesting thousands of hours of video footage. Their aim is to create customized training reports for top professionals and junior players.AI can quickly digest meta-data（元数据）and learn how to process and analyze it. _____67_____“We are treating video like a rich data source,” said Elizabeth O’Brien, program director of IBM Sports & Entertainment partnerships. “H ow can we actually see all the things that are hidden in video and turn them into data?”Martin Black-man, the USTA’ sg eneral manager of player development, said the data has helped create a new statistic. _____68____ “We are able to look at a player’s acceleration（加速）and speed over the course of the match and show them how their court position improves when they are moving at an optimal（最优的）level,” he said.____69____ For a typical 90-minute match, a “tagger（做标注者）” would spend two hours pulli ng out unforced errors（非受迫性失误）and even identifying the exact time of the start and end of each point. By contrast, Watson takes two minutes to do that while analyzing trends and patterns. That means the USTA can deliver nearly instant analysis to players shortly after their matches.The coaching supplement to AI is the brainchild of Stephen Hammer, IBM’s sports CTO. He helped develop the highlights program and realized it could be used to help with player development._____70_____ The program created the trailer（预告片）for the horror movie Morgan, with AI determining the most emotional scenes that were used in that preview.Similarly, Watson can go through a match and, after being instructed what to look for, quickly pull out what is required for the coaches. For example, Black-man instructed Watson to focus on points after unforced errors to see whether a player performed better, the same or worse.Ⅳ.

For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)Many people experience problems with their spine（脊椎）as they age. The tissue that protects the joints in the spine gradually breaks down. As a consequence, the bones, in the spine begin to rub against each other. This further harms that issue as well as the bones. The result is pain in the joints and, sometimes, in nerves near the spine.This painful problem is actually a disease called osteoporosis. Some people are more at risk of osteoporosis because of genes that they inherited from their ancestors. Extremely heavy people are also more likely to suffer from this disease because their extra weight puts much pressure on their joints. fortunately, there are steps that people can take to help prevent osteoporosis from developing in their spine.The most important step is exercise. Stretches can help the muscles around the spine relax and allow bones to shift into better alignment（排列）, Strength exercises with light weights or body-weight exercises like push-ups can also help by strengthening the muscles around the spine. However, people should not overdo these exercises as repeated motions can strain the muscles around the spine. Trying to lift heavy weights with poor technique can have the same effect.Another important factor is diet. It affects the health of spine because many vitamins are necessary for bones and nerves: These include B vitamins and omega-3 fatty acids, all of which helps keep nerves healthy. People can get more B vitamin and omega 3 fatty acids by taking supplements sold by stores. Another important factor is vitamin D. which is essential for strong bones. All of these vitamins and acids can be obtained from food. Thus people can help themselves by including them in their daily diets.56. What does this article mainly explain?A.

Whatever stage of life you’re at, wherever you go and whatever project you do in GDA, you’ll create positive changes in a poor and remote community.We work with volunteers of all ages and backgrounds. Most of our volunteers are aged 17-24. Now we need volunteer managers aged 25-75. They are extremely important in the safe andeffective running of our programmes. We have such roles as project managers, mountain leaders, and communication officers.Depending on which role you choose, you could help to increase a community’s access to safe drinking water, or help to protect valuable local cultures. You might also design an adventure challenge to train young volunteers.Not only will you help your young volunteers to develop personally, you’ll also learn new skills and increase your cultural awareness. You may have chances to meet new people who’ll become your lifelong friends.This summer we have both 4-week and 7-week programmes:GDA ensures that volunteers work with community members and local project partners where our help is needed. All our projects aim to promote the development of poor and remote communities.There is no other chance like a GDA programme.

The programme beginning in August will operate in _______.A. EgyptB. AlgeriaC. KenyaD. South Africa62. The shared goal of GDA’s projects is to _______.A. explore new culturesB. protect the environmentC. gain corporate benefitsD. help communities in need(C)By the end of the century, if not sooner, the world’ socea us will be bluer and greener thanks to a warming climate, according to a new study.At the heart of the phenomenon lie tiny marine microorganisms called phytoplankton. Because of the way light reflects off the organisms, these phytoplankton create colourful patterns at the ocean surface. Ocean colour varies from green to blue, depending on the type and concentration of phytoplankton. climate change will fuel the growth of phytoplankton in some areas, while reducing it in other spots, reading to changes in the ocean’s appearance.Phytoplankton live at the ocean surface, where they pull carbon dioxide into the ocean while giving off oxygen. When these organisms die, they bury carbon in the deep ocean, an important process that helps to regulate the global climate. But phytoplankton are vulnerable to the ocean’s warming trend. Warming changes key characteristics of the ocean and can affect phytoplankton growth, since they need not only sunlight and carbon dioxide to grow, but also nutrients.Stephanie Dutkiewicz, a scientist in MIT’s Center for Global Change Science, built a climate model that projects changes to the oceans throughout the century. In a world that warms up by 3Ⅱ, it foudn that multiple changes to the colour of the oceans would occur. The model projects that currently blue areas with little phytoplankton could become even bluer. But in some waters, such as those of the Arctic, a warming will make conditions riper for phytoplankton, and these areas will turn greener. “Not only are the quantities of phytoplankton in the ocean changeing,” she said, “but the type of phytoplankton is changing.”And why does that matter? Phytoplankton are the base of the food web. If certain kinds begin to disappear from the ocean, Dutkiewicz said, “it will change the type of fish that will be able to survive.” Those kinds of changes could affect the food chain.Whatever colour changes the ocean experiences in the coming decades will probably be too gradual and unnoticeable, but they could mean significant changes. “It’ll be a while before wecan statistically show that the changes are happening because of climate change,” Dutkiewicz said, “but the change in the colour of the ocean will be one of the early warning signals what we really have changed our planet.”63. What are the first two paragraphs mainly about ?A. The various patterns at the ocean surface.B. The cause of the changes in ocean colour.C. The way light reflects off marine organisms.D. The efforts to fuel the growth of phytoplankton.64. What does the underlined word “vulnerable” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. Sensitive.B. Beneficial.C. Significant.D. Unnoticeable.65. What can we learn from the passage?A. Phytoplankton play a declining role in the marine ecosystem.B. Dutkiewicz’s model aims to project phytoplankton changes.C. Phytoplankton have been used to control global climate.D. Oceans with more phytoplankton may appear greener.66. What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To assess the consequences of ocean colour changes.B. To analyse the composition of the ocean food chain.C. To explain the effects of climate change on oceans.D. To introduce a new method to study phytoplankton.(D)Artificial intelligence has been used widely in sports. Among other applications, it has been taught to recognize key moments during matches by analyzing both sounds and images.Now the U. S. Tennis Association (USTA) is using AI to assist in aiding top players. Using IBM’s Watson program, the USTA’s high-performance coaching division has been digesting thousands of hours of video footage. Their aim is to create customized training reports for top professionals and junior players.AI can quickly digest meta-data（元数据）and learn how to process and analyze it. _____67_____“We are treating video like a rich data source,” said Elizabeth O’Brien, program director of IBM Sports & Entertainment partnerships. “How can we actually see all the things that are hidden in video and turn them into data?”Martin Black-man, the USTA’ sg eneral manager of player development, said the data has helped create a new statistic. _____68____ “We are able to look at a player’s acceleration（加速）and speed over the course of the match and show them how their court position improves when they are moving at an optimal（最优的）level,” he said.____69____ For a typical 90-minute match, a “tagger（做标注者）” would spend two hours pulling out unforced errors（非受迫性失误）and even identifying the exact time of the start and end of each point. By contrast, Watson takes two minutes to do that while analyzing trends and patterns. That means the USTA can deliver nearly instant analysis to players shortly after their matches.The coaching supplement to AI is the brainchild of Stephen Hammer, IBM’s sports CTO. He helped develop the highlights program and realized it could be used to help with player development._____70_____ The program created the trailer（预告片）for the horror movie Morgan, with AI determining the most emotional scenes that were used in that preview.Similarly, Watson can go through a match and, after being instructed what to look for, quickly pull out what is required for the coaches. For example, Black-man instructed Watson to focus on points after unforced errors to see whether a player performed better, the same or worse.Ⅱ.
