Not everything important in a car's environment will be caught by the vehicle's camera. Another vehicle approaching at high speed on a collision (碰撞) track might not be visible until it's too late. This is why vehicle-to-vehicle communication is undergoing rapid development. Our research shows that cars will need to be able to chat and cooperate on the road, although the technical challenges are considerable.Applications for vehicle-to-vehicle communication range from vehicles driving together in a row, to safety messages about nearby emergency vehicles. Vehicles could alert each other to avoid collisions or share notices about passers-by and bicycles.From as far as several hundred metres away, vehicles could exchange messages with one another or receive information from roadside units(RSUs)about nearby incidents or dangerous road conditions through 4G network. A high level of AI seems required for such vehicles, not only to self-drive from A to B, but also to react intelligently to messages received. Vehicles will need to plan, reason, strategize and adapt according to information received in real time and to carry out cooperative behaviours. For example, a group of autonomous vehicles might avoid a route together because of potential risks, or a vehicle could decide to drop someone off earlier due to messages received, a foreseen crowding ahead.Further applications of vehicle-to-vehicle communication are still being researched, including how to perform cooperative behaviour.28. What is the first paragraph mainly about?A. The reasons for the accidents by self-driving vehicles.B. The research about applications for self-driving vehicles.C. The importance of artificial intelligence of self-driving vehicles.D. The reasons for developing communication between self-driving vehicles.29. What does the underlined word “alert” mean in Paragraph 2?A. Alarm.B. Condemn.C. Ignore.D. Govern.30. What can we learn about roadside units(RSUs)?A. They classify the vehicles on the road.B. They can improve bad road conditions.C. They take over the passing vehicles.D. They serve as efficient information stations.31. What is the best title for the text?A. When do vehicles communicate?B. The reasons why a high level of AI is important.C. Vehicle-to-vehicle communication is coming.D. What do applications for vehicle-to-vehicle communication need?DWhat would it take to persuade you to exercise? A desire to lose weight or improve yourfigure? To keep you away from diseases? To live to a health y of age? You’d think any of those reasons would be enough to get Americans exercising. Yet a vast majority of Americans have thus far failed to swallow the “exercise pill”.Now a research by psychologists strongly suggests it’s time to think of current w ell-being (幸福) and happiness as motivators(动机;动力) for exercise instead of future health, weight loss and body image.Dr. Segar, one of the researchers, believes that immediate rewards are more motivating than distant ones. “People who say they exercise fo r the quality of life exercise more over the course of a year than those who say they value exercise for its health benefits,” he said.Other studies have shown that what keeps people moving depends on age, sex and life circumstances. For those of college age, physical attractiveness typically heads the lists of reasons to begin exercising, although what keeps them going seems to be the stress relief that a regular exercise program provides. The elderly, on the other hand, may get started because of health concerns. But often what keeps them exercising are the friendships and sense of community that may otherwise be missing from their lives. Improving daily well-being is the most influential factor for women. Men indicate they are motivated by more distant health benefits, but this may be because men feel less comfortable discussing their mental health needs.“Exercise should be encouraged but the emphasis on weight loss, disease prevention and healthy aging should be reduced,” Dr. Segar concluded. “Exercis e can make people feel more energetic, less stressed and, yes, happier.”32. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 1 mean?A. Be free from diseases.B. Take some diet pills.C. Improve their figure.D. Keep physically active.33. According to the passage, which of the following people may exercise more in a year?A. Jane, who decides to lose weight.B. David, who exercises for future health.C. Mary, who enjoys exercising with her son.D. Mark, who is suffering from a serious illness.34. According to Paragraph 4, which group of people tends to exercise for friendship?A. Men.B. WomenC. The elderly.D. College students.35. What is the author mainly arguing in the passage?A. Immediate rewards of exercise should be emphasized.B. Distant benefits should be the motivators for exercise.C. Feeling relaxed is more important than future health.D. Men and women take exercise for different purposes.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。

In China’s Qinling Mountains, giant pandas spend most of their day eating bamboo. The plant makes up 99% of the panda’s diet, with some pandas eating about 40 pounds of it a day. But Qinling’s pan das may soon have to find another food source. A new study published in the science journal Nature Climate Change reports that warming temperatures may cause the loss of most of the region’s bamboo by the end of the century.A team made up of researchers from Michigan State University and the Chinese Academy of Sciences studied the effects of climate change on the region’s three main bamboo species. They studied the influence of rising temperatures on the spread and growth of bamboo. Bamboo is sensitive to temperature changes. “Even with a 3.6 degrees Fahrenheit increase in temperature, we found that 80% to 100% of bamboo would be gone by the end of the century,” Liu Jianguo, one of the study’s authors said. Shirley Martin, who came from Paris but not invol ved in the team said that it’s really ademanding challenge for us to get a desired result.The Qinling Mountains, located in eastern China, are home to about 2703 pandas. That is about 17% of the world’s wild panda population. The panda is one of the world ’s most endangered species.In recent years, China has stepped up efforts to protect pandas. But Liu says the country has yet to consider the long-term efforts of climate change in its conservation planning. Aside from increasing nature reserve areas where pandas are protected, Liu wants China to lower its use of fuels that release greenhouse gases —as should the rest of the world. “ The future of pandas,” he says, “ is in our hands.”24. What can we know from the first paragraph?A. M ost of the bamboo in Qinling may disappear in the near future.B. The bamboo in Qinling is enough for giant pandas.C. Qinling’s giant pandas have already eaten 99% of the bamboo.D. Qinling’s giant pandas are certain to have no bamboo to eat by the end of the century. 25.Where do the researchers in the team come from?A. Britain and China.B. The US and China.C. France and the US.D. Germany and the US.26. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?A. Bamboo is sensitive to the changes of temperature.B. 17% of the world’s wild pandas are in Qinling Mountains.C. China is making great efforts to protect giant pandas.D. Whether pandas can survive depends on their ability of adaptation.27. Which’s the best title for the passage?A. The Endangered Giant PandasB. Saving Panda’s Food SourceC. Protecting the Environment Around UsD. The Terrible Future of PandasCThe 2014 Nobel Prize for Literature went to the French novelist “for the art of memory with which he has uncovered the life-world of the occupation”.Although the 69-year-old writer is a very popular literary figure in France, heis little known elsewhere. So who is this Patrick Modiano, why does his memoryhave such an influence upon him, and what exactly has he uncovered ?Modiano was born in a suburb of Paris right after World War II ended in Europe in July 1945. His father was a Jewish-Italian businessman who met his Belgian actress mother during the Nazi occupation of Paris.As The New Yorker magazine put it, Europeans born in 1945 share a condition -they escaped the war, but “not the taint (污点) of the war”.Modiano’s life has been influenced by Nazi Germany’s occupation during the war, and his family’s connections to it. According to New York-based newspaper Forward, his father survived the war dish onorably. When Paris’ Jews were brought together to be sent to4concentration camps, the businessman did not join them but spent the time making money from deals with Nazis on the black market.“The novelist has a duty to record the lives of the people who have disappeared, the people who were made to disappear,” French writer Clemence Boulouque, also an expert in Jewish studies, told The New Yorker magazine.In his more than three dozen novels, Modiano has returned again and again to the same themes: Jewishness, the Nazi occupation, and loss of identity. His characters collect pieces of old evidence, handwriting, photographs, police files, and newspaper cuttings. His most admired novel, Missing Person, is a good example. It’s the story about a detective who has lost his memory. He tries to find out who he really is by following his own steps through history.Although Modiano’s win is a surprise outside France, people are celebrating in his home country. Modiano is the 15th French literature winner. After Le Clezio’s 2008 win, it seemed unlikely that there would be another so soon.28.What is the passage mainly about?A.A literary figure’s personal affairs.B.A famous novelist’s family background.C.A Nobel Prize winner and his literary achievement.D.European people’s s ufferings during World War II .29.Which of the following statements about Patrick Modiano is TRUEaccording to the passage?A.He is a survivor of World War II.B.He tried to find back his lost identity.C.World War II has an impact on his life.D.He was world-famous before winning the Nobel Prize.30.Why did Modiano win the Nobel Prize?A.Because of his extraordinary characterB.Because of his unique way of recording historyC.Because of his characters’ unusual experiencesD.Because of his special connections to the war531.What can be inferred from the passage?6 A. Modiano’s parents were sent to the concentration campB. Modiano’s winning the Nobel Prize was beyond expectationC. Modiano’s father had nothing to do with the NazisD. Clemence Boulouque is also of Jewish originDIn 2015, a man named Nigel Richards memorized 386, 000 words in the entire French Scrabble Dictionary in just nine weeks. However, he does not speak French. Richards’ impressive feat is a useful example to show how artificial intelligence works —real AI. Both of Richard and AI take in massive amounts of data to achieve goals with unlimited memory and superman accuracy in a certain field.The potential applications for AI are extremely exciting. Because AI can outperform humans at routine tasks —provided the task is in one field with a lot of data —it is technically capable of replacing hundreds of millions of white and blue collar jobs in the next 15 years or so.But not every job will be replaced by AI. In fact, four types of jobs are not at risk at all. First, there are creative jobs. AI needs to be given a goal to optimize. It cannot invent, like scientists, novelists and artists can. Second, the complex, strategic jobs —executives, diplomats, economists — go well beyond the AI limitation of single-field and Big Data. Then there are the as-yet-unknown jobs that will be created by AI.Are you worried that these three types of jobs won’t employ as many people as AI will replace? Not to worry, as the fourth type is much larger: jobs where emotions are needed, such as teachers, nannies and doctors. These jobs require compassion, trust and sympathy —which AI does not have. And even if AI tried to fake it, nobody would want a robot telling them they have cancer, or a robot to babysit their children.So there will still be jobs in the age of AI. The key then must be retraining the workforce so people can do them. This must be the responsibility not just of the government, which can provide funds, but also of corporations and those who benefit most.32. What is the main purpose of paragraph 1?A. To introduce the topic.7 B. To mention Nigel’s feat.C. To stress the importance of good memory.D. To suggest humans go beyond AI in memory.33. Which of the following best explains “outperform” underlined in paragraph 2?A. Be superior toB. Be equal toC. Be similar toD. Be related to34. Which of the following jobs is the most likely to be replaced?A. The writer.B. The shop assistant.C. The babysitter.D. The psychologist.35. What does the text suggest people do about job replacement of AI?A. Limit the application of AI to a certain degree.B. Get more support from the government.C. Apply for the donation from companies.D. Upgrade themselves all the time.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 7 个选项中为每空选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。

I went on to earn two scholarships, and membership in the National Honor Society. I truly believed the hard work was worth it.It wasn’t until a few months ago that I realized how clueless I was. I had been combing through the classifieds (分类广告) when my eyes fell upon my dream job. “National College Magazine looking for writers.”Thrilled, I spent the weekend composing a resume. Needless to say, I was stunned when the interviewer barely took one glance before throwing it aside.“No experience,” he said flatly.I felt like screaming, “What do you mean, no experience? Look at these grades.”I was left to absorb the shock of rejection, thinking that nobody ever told me that a 4.0 student would be turned down for a job.Didn’t all of my hard work count for anything?I see plenty of demands for two years of experience at a print publication, but none requiring extensive knowledge of how to write academic papers. Yet 95% of my energy in school went toward the latter, leaving me little time to devote to anything else. If career preparation is supposed to be the point of college, then why isn’t it the focus?Has a college degree just become another societal status symbol like fancy cars or designer clothes?Given my experience, I feel that a college degree would be a lot more valuable if students were required to get some outside experience to supplement their in-class knowledge. Instead of requiring four science classes, why not three science classes and an internship?In my college career, I took one class that taught me how to write and submit essays for publication. This ever-so-brief taste of the real world was like holding an ice cream sundae (圣代) in front of a child and only giving her a small bite.Well, I’m a big girl. I want my college education –the education I’m paying for – to include everything.24. The author studied so hard at college mainly because _______. (细节理解)A. her family pushed her to do it.B. it was her dream to get a GPA of 4.0.C. she relied on scholarships to continue her studies.D. she believed it would lead to career success.25. What does the underlined word “stunned” mean in Paragr aph 4? (词义猜测)A. ShockedB. AnxiousC. CuriousD. Calm26. What does the underlined sentence in the second-to-last paragraph imply? (句意猜测)A. Academic writing is a small part of college life.B. Competition in college is not as fierce as in the real world.C. College education always covers unimportant things.D. The author feels held back by her lack of real-world experience.27. What does the author want to tell us by writing this article? (主旨大意)A. Good grades matter most.B. A college degree is of no use.C. Career preparation is a necessity for college education.D. College students should make full use of their time.C原创者:宋雅男考点对接:议论文They say that good literature is “timeless”. But perhaps they should also say “nameless”.In May 2018, the Chinese literary magazine Newriting (《鲤》) started a project called “Anonymous (匿名的) Writing”, collecting short stories submitted by famous writers as well as by new writers. What’s different about the project is that the stories were published without the writers’ names, and were then presented to a judging panel (评审团) of professional writers to select the best work. The panel judged only on the basis of the writing itself.The winning story was announced on Dec 15. It was the work of Zheng Zhi, a 31-year-old writer who had never taken part in a writing competition before. However, he managed to defeat works later known to be from the hands of famous writers such as Yan Lianke and Ma Boyong.“People today love celebrities– the names they’re familiar with,”Zhang Yueran, the founder and chief editor of Newriting, said at the award ceremony. “This was why we decided to hide the names in this project, freeing people from whatever distraction that comes with a name and allowing them to focus only on the value of the writing.”In fact, history is full of “nameless”literary works. The best example in Chinese literature is perhaps The Book of Poetry (《诗经》), which consists of ancient folk tales by no specific authors, but is considered to be a classic. In Western literature, the famous 1847 novel Jane Eyre by UK writer Charlotte Bronte was actually first published under the pen name “Currer Bell”. No one knew who “he” or “she” was, but that didn’t stop the novel from becoming an international sensation (轰动).Perhaps all literature should be “nameless”. Such a rule would allow writers to compete in the fairest way. It might also free famous writers from imprisonment (禁锢) by a style that they have established and allow them to find a new one. And we readers could enjoy writing in a pure way, with everything unnecessary like names and titles – publicity maneuvers (宣传策略) – stripped (剥离) away to leave only literature itself.28.What was special about the project started by Newriting? (细节理解)A. It was only open to new writers.B. It selected the best short stories.C. It judged works without knowledge of the writers.D. The members of its judging panel were all ordinary readers.29. Why did the founder start the project? (细节理解)A. He wanted new writers to become better known.B. He wanted to create a fair writing competition.C. He wanted people to care about the writing itself.D. He aimed to compare new writers with famous ones.30. What is the purpose of Paragraph 5? (段落大意)A. To show that there are many good “nameless” works in history.B. To show the similarities between literary works in the East and West.C. To show that “nameless” works can enjoy popularity for a long time.D. To explain how to make “nameless” works well known.31. What does the writer think of the “nameless” rule? (推测题)A. It will create greater competition among writers.B. Famous writers may become free to write in different styles.C. It will be difficult for readers to choose the best works.D. New writers will become discouraged because they will never become known.D原创者:原晓燕考点对接:科技类说明文New traffic lights fitted with artificial intelligence (AI) could create safer roads and bring an end to rush hour jams.“Smart” traffic lights will monitor speed and traffic jam, prioriti ze cyclists, buses and ambulances with green lights and use heat maps to analyse how passers-by and motorists are using the roads. Milton Keynes is set to be the first city to trial the £3 million project from September.At present, traffic lights are not reactive to the vehicles around them and traffic monitoring is still done by police. However, with AI, traffic monitors can recognize different vehicles and individual road users and will be able to regulate traffic in no time. Cameras will also allow traffic lights to prioritize cyclists, buses or ambulances with green lights. The technology could also enable traffic lights to communicate with driverless cars around the corner and inform them if passers-by are crossing the road.Vivacity Labs, which created the technology, said “The Milton Keynes project is the first step increating an intelligent traffic management system. That improves safety by influencing traffic movement as it happens, based on thetype of traffic and monitoring the areas where it becomes congested (拥堵).”Yang Lu, Chief Technology Officer at Vivacity Labs said, “There is verylimited intelligence to the current management of urban roads. By introducing AI into the camera itself,Vivacity Labs has created a system that accuratelyidentifies and reports road usage, reducing the potential forhuman error.”“It also improves traffic todayas it can be linked with existing management systems to keep road users,such ascyclists, safe by giving priority at lights, or change signs to direct traffic away from traffic jams. The project will helpshow the value of the data our device creates, giving us the basisto offer our system to cities across the world, ” Yang Lu added.32. Why is the intelligent traffic management system used? (细节理解)A. To create a greener environment.B.To let passers-by cross the street quickly.C.To improve safety and avoid congestion.D.To have police direct the traffic easily.33. What can we know about new traffic lights? (细节理解推断)A. They’re real-time.B. They’re complex.C.They limit the road usage.D. They accurately identify the cars' number.34. What is Yang Lu’s attitude to AI technology? (态度题)A. Doubtful.B. Supportive.C. Uncaring.D. Negative.35. What is the best title for the passage? (主旨大意)A. No Traffic Jams at the CrossroadsB.

ACuba’s former leader, Fidel Castro, died at the age of 90, according to a November 25 announcement on Cuban state television. The death marks the passing of a controversial figure who made a major impact on international affairs during his long rule.The Cuban government declared nine days of official mourning. On Monday, thousands of Cubans lined up near Havana’s Plaza of the Revolution to pay their final respects to their leader. On Wednesday, Castro’s ashes will begin a three-day journey across Cuba to Santa Ifigenia cemetery in Santiago de Cuba.Castro was born into a middle-class family on August 13, 1926. He spent his childhood alongside the laborers on his father’s plantation(种植园). In 1945, Castro entered the University of Havana as a law student. He later joined groups that sought to end dictatorships in Latin-American countries.On July 26, 1953, Castro staged an unsuccessful revolt(叛乱)against Batista’s government. He and his brother Raul were captured and imprisoned for two years. After they were freed, the brothers went into exile in Mexico. On November 25; 1956, Castro set out once again to overthrow Batista. His revolution grew in strength. On New Year’s Day 1959, Batista fled from Cuba. Castro took absolute power on January 8.The U. S. viewed Castro’s relationship with the Soviet Union as a threat. In 1961, President John F. Kennedy approved the invasion of Cuba by 1,500 Cuban exiles. They landed on April 17 at the Bay of Pigs, but with little U. S. military support. Cuban troops smashed the attack within a few days.In October 1962, Castro confronted Kennedy during the Cuban Missile Crisis, during which he allowed the Soviet Union to place nuclear-capable missiles in Cuba. By that time, the U.S. had cut all relations with Cuba.After the Soviet Union collapsed(崩溃)in 1991 , Cuba lost its economic support. To fuel the economy, the Cuban government allowed outside investment in hotels and resorts, but that created inequality. Meanwhile, Castro continued to crack down on any opposition. After undergoing intestinal surgery in 2006, Castro handed Cuba’s presidency to Raul. The transition of power became official in 2008.21. Where did many Cubans line up to pay their final respects to Fidel Castro on Monday?A. In Cuban Television Station.B. Near Havana’s Plaza of the Revolution.C. In Santa Ifigenia cemetery.D. Along the streets of Santiago de Cuba.22. When did Fidel Castro control the power of Cuba completely?A. In 1956.B. In 1959.C. In 1991.D. In 2008.23. What did the Cuban Missile Crisis result in directly?A. Batista fled from Cuba.B. The U. S. cut all relations with Cuba.C. The U. S. viewed the Soviet Union as a threat.D. President John F. Kennedy approved an invasion of Cuba.24. What is the last paragraph mainly about?A. The end of Fidel Castro’s Era.B. The transition of power in Cuba.C. Fidel Castro’s economic policies.D. The collapse of the Soviet Uni on.BBottlenose dolphins (宽吻海豚) simplify and raise the tune of their whistles to be heard above underwater shipping noise. Christopher Intagliata reports.The oceans are getting louder. And coastal areas are some of the noisiest, as in this underwater recording, captured 17 miles off the coast of Ocean City, Maryland.The noise could be a problem for marine mammals, which, like us, use sound to communicate. "Just like if we are in a noisy bar, we have to shout to each other and they might have to do that too. Helen Bailey is a marine biologist at the University of Maryland Center for Environmental Science.She and her colleagues recorded two months of underwater sounds. in that same area off the coast of Maryland. They used automated software to fish out 200 bottlenose dolphin whistles from the noise, and visually compared the spectrograms(图谱).But what they found was that dolphins cut down the complexity of their whistles and raised their tune, when they were competing with shipping noise. It apparently helps, but could also hurt their ability to communicate.“By using simpler calls, yes, there is a risk they're not communicating as much information as they would if it was quieter. Also for younger dolphins they actually learn these sounds from hearing other dolphins. So they're hearing this much simpler language.”The results—and a few of those spectrograms—are in the journal Biology Letters.The survey site is the proposed future home of a wind farm—which could mean lots of noise as the huge towers are installed. Until then, it's the chronic roar of ships and boats that Bailey wants people to consider. "I think people think about boats in terms of the emissions, just like with cars. And I think what we need to think about is sound, which is also an emission.”25.Which statement may Helen Bailey agree with?A. Loud noise may damage the hearing of bottlenose dolphins.B. Noise may make the bottlenose dolphins have trouble listening to each other.C. Bottlenose dolphins may move away from the noisy coastal areas.D. Bottlenose dolphins may only communicate with each other by sound.26. When will the bottlenose dolphins raise their tune according to the text?A. When they want to catch more fish in the sea.B. When they want to compete with shipping noise.C. When they want to record their sound.D. When they want to teach the young dolphins.27. What will happen to the bottlenose dolphins if the situation continues?A. More and more bottlenose dolphins will love to make loud noiseB. People will lose the bottlenose dolphins forever.C. They will have to make long journeys in the ocean.D. They will lose the ability to convey complicated information.28. What is the authors attitude towards the wind farm?A .Negative. B. Positive C. Ambiguous D. SupportiveCThe life expectancy(预期寿命) gap between the richest and the poorest members of society in England widened to nearly 10 years, British researchers have found.The study analyzed a total of 7.65 million deaths in England between 2001 and 2016 based on data from the Office for National Statistics.Researchers at Imperial College London found that the life expectancy gap between the richest and the poorest sectors of society increased from 6.1 years in 2001 to 7.9 years in 2016 for women and from 9.0 years to 9.7 years for men.The life expectancy of women in the poorest communities in 2016 was 78.8 years, compared to 86.7 years in the richest group. For men, life expectancy was 74.0 years among the poorest, compared to 83.8 years among the richest, according to the study published Thursday in the journal Lancet Public Health. The largest contributors to life expectancy inequalities were deaths in children younger than five years old, mostly the baby deaths, as well as respiratory diseases, heart disease, lung and digestive cancers, and dementia among the elderlyMajid Ezzati, senior author of the research, noted that"“ a perfect storm of factors” led to the earlier deaths of poor people, including dead working income, rising price of healthy food, funding shortage for health and late diagnosis of diseases.Greater investment in health and social care in the most poorest areas will help change the worrying trends seen in our work. We also need government and industry action to erase food insecurity and make healthy food choices more affordable, so that the quality of a family’s diet isn't decided by their income,"he suggested29.How did the scientists get the result?A. By doing the experimentsB. By analyzing the figures.C. By analyzing the forms.D. By studying the questionnaires.30. Who will live the longest time according to the research?A. Men in the richest community。

AEarth is home to many amazing natural and man-made sights. However, because of other man-made things – pollution and climate change – many of these beautiful spots will likely disappear over the next 100 years, or even sooner.The Dead SeaAt 430 meters below sea level, the Dead Sea is Earth’s lowest point on land. It is the place where Israel, Jordan and the West Bank meet. This destination is popular for its wonderful desert views and extreme buoyancy (浮力).Now the Dead Sea is actually dying. A story in Smithsonian Magazine says that people are using water from the Jordan River, which takes water away from the dead Sea. Since 1930, its surface area has reduced by almost 40 percent.Venice, ItalyWith canals (运河) instead of streets, this “Floating City” has fascinated visitors for centuries. Today, with no cars or buses, people usually walk through the city’s ancient labyrinth (迷宫) of alleys (小巷), bridges and stairs. Water defines (定义) Venice, but water will also kill the city.Built on soft, muddy soil, Venice has slowly been sinking for centuries.Now, with rising sea levels, it’s sinking faster. Technological solutions have so far been imperfect –the city flooded more than 100 times last year. According to US-based magazine Architectural Digest, the city may disappear in the next 100 years. Better book your gondola soon! Great Barrier Reef, AustraliaStretching (绵延) more than 2,300 kilometers off Australia’s northeast coast, the Great Barrier Reef is the world’s largest r eef ecosystem, and heaven for scuba divers (水肺潜水). Thousands of colorful coral (珊瑚) and fish make homes beneath the blue waves. It’s like a big underwater party!Sharks come for a seafood buffet (自助餐) and sea turtles come to find a date. Even whales stop by during their long swimming journeys.Unfortunately, the party might be over soon. The reef is dying. Warming ocean water kills the coral, and this causes problems up the food chain. The reef has decreased by more than half of its size, according to US-based website Business Insider. The New York Times reported that large parts are already dead, and the reef system might be gone by 2030.1. Which spot is called “Floating City”?A. Great Barrier Reef, AustraliaB. Watery WondersC. The Dead SeaD. Venice, Italy2. According to the text, we can know that________.A. With rising sea levels, Venice may disappear by 2030.B. the Dead Sea is Earth’s lowest point on land and called “Floating City”.C. The Dead Sea is like a big underwater party where there colorful coral and various creatures.D. Great Barrier Reef is the world’s largest reef ecosystem, of which large parts are alreadydead and might disappear in the further.3. What’s the main purpose of the text?A. To attract visitors to visit these beautiful spots.B. To arouse people’s awareness of protecting these beautiful spots.C. To introduce some knowledge about these beautiful spots.D. To describe the current situations of these beautiful spots.BWith Halloween just around the corner, today we will explore the world of ghosts in this program! The Merriam-Webster online dictionary says the word “ghost” goes back a thousand years to the “earliest recorded evidence of the language.” The first meaning of “ghost” was “the seat of life or intelligence.” And it still has that meaning in some expressions.However, today, the word “ghost” usually means the soul of a dead person. This meaning is based on the idea that a person’s spirit and body are separate. The spirit can continue existing long after the body has died.During Halloween, kids dressed as ghosts are common sights. The costume is very simple: just throw on a white cloth that covers you from head to foot. But do not expect to win any costumecompetitions! You would not have a ghost of a chance. People use this expression to mean that something is very unlikely to happen.The sight might even make you turn pale as a ghost. This is used when people lose color in their face. Sometimes this happens when a person is scared. But a bad cold or flu can also turn you as pale as a ghost.“Ghost” can also be a verb. In the 1880s the term ghost meant a person who works in secret for another person. Ghostwriters produce speeches for politicians. They also produce books for authors who want to tell their life stories but are not professional writers.And sometimes ghostwriters are involved in a series of books, like the children’s stories based on the teenage detective Nancy Drew. The series began in 1930. The author given credit was Carolyn Keene. But she was not even real! Ghostwriters did all the work.Another expression using “ghost” as a verb is simply to ghost. This does not mean to die. It means to leave a place or event without saying “goodbye” to anyone. You can ghost from your job. You can ghost from a party. You can even ghost from a relationship. This is when you stop communicating with someone because you are simply no longer interested in them.But I will not ghost from Words and Their Stories.4. Which meaning of the word “ghost” is about the earliest one?A. the origin of intelligenceB.the color of one’s faceC. the spirit of a dead personD. the secret of another person5. If someone wants to say “it’s impossible for you to win the match.”He may say like this______________.A. He is likely to ghost from the matchB. you don’t have a ghost of chance to win the match.C. you are too scared to win the match with ghost face.D. The ghost will make you unable to win the match.6. What can be inferred about the word “ghost” according to the passage?A. A person devoted to his job is likely to ghost from his job.B. A bad cold can turn people as pale as a ghost because they fear illness.C. It was Carolyn Keene who ghostwrote the children’s stories.D. Kids dressed in a white cloth like ghosts cannot win a costume competition.7. Where does the passage probably come from __________.A. a radio programB. a Halloween posterC. a fashion magazineD. a newspaper advertisementCFor a wide range of diseases, diagnosis comes later in life for women than for men, according to a large Danish study. Researchers don’t know whether the later diagnoses are due to genetics, the environment, possible biases in the healthcare system - or some combination of reasons.The study of health data from 6.9 million Danish people found that across hundreds of diseases, women on average were diagnosed when they were about four years older than the age at which the conditions were recognized in men. “We’re not just looking at one disease here, we’re looking at all diseases and we are looking at an entire population, from cradle to grave,” lead author Soren Brunak from the University of Copenhagen told Reuters Health by phone. On average, women received cancer diagnoses 2.5 years after men. They received diagnoses for metabolic diseases like diabetes 4.5 years later. “This actually surprised us quite a lot,” Brunak said. “Men generally have a tendency to get to the doctor later. So presumably the difference in onset is even larger.”Brunak and his team considered incidence rates of diseases in the 18 broad categories of the ICD-10 diagnosis system managed by the World Health Organization. The study wasn’t designed to explain the causes of the differences. Another limitation is that researchers only looked at diagnoses made in hospitalized patients.Dr. Noel Bairey Merz, director of the Barbra Streisand Women’s Heart Center at the Cedars-Sinai Smidt Heart Institute, who was not involved in the study, pointed out to Reuters Health that the study therefore lacks information on age at diagnosis for people who didn't require hospitalization. “On the other hand,” she said, “being hospitalized is a sign of a serious illness, so that adds significance to the diagnosis and supports that disease onset may be later in women.”Brunak’s study, published in Nature Communications, showed that the bone-thinning disease osteoporosis was a notable exception to the trend. Here, women were typically diagnosed before they suffered a fracture, while the opposite was true for men.“I am fascinated by this study, which generally confirms all that I present in my Stanford course on Sex and Gender in Human Physiology and Disease,”said Marcia Stefanick, Director of Stanford University’s Women’s Health and Sex Differences in Medicine Center.8. What can we know from the research?A. Women were diagnosed four years later than men for any diseases.B. Only the adults were involved in the research.C. On average, women were diagnosed later than men for the same disease.D. Women tend to go to the doctor later than men.9. What does the underlined word “onset” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. spreadB. beginningC. symptomD. ending10. What can we infer from the fourth paragraph?A. Dr. Merz made proper comments on the research.B. Dr. Merz was not willing to participate in the research.C. Dr. Merz didn’t think much of the research.D. Being hospitalized is a sign of getting a serious illness.11. What’s Marcia Stefanick’s attitude towards the research?A. criticalB. uninterestedC. favourableD. indifferentDWhen we are children, the summer holidays seem to last forever, and the wait between Spring Festivals feels like an eternity. But later, we may find that the time just seems to fly by, with weeks, months and entire seasons disappearing from a blurred calendar at a fast speed. Why does time seem to pass faster as we get older?According to the Daily Mail, our brains degrade as we get older. That diminish the amount of information we can deal with in a single day. “The human mind senses time changing when the perceived images change,” Adrian Bejan from Duke University, US, told the Daily Mail. “The present is different from the past because the mental viewing has changed, not because somebody’s clock rings.”Infants, for example, move their eyes much more often than adults because they’re processing images at a faster rate. They deal with a large amount of information and do many things in a single day. This makes them feel like a single day lasts for a long time. However, as people get older, fewer images are processed in the same amount of time. Therefore, older people receive less information during a day than younger people. This causes things to seem as though they’re happening more quickly.Apart from the degradation of our brains, some psychological reasons also make us experience time differently. People may measure time by the number of memorable events that can be recalled within a certain period. When we think about our youth, we may remember a life packed with first-time activities, for example, our first time traveling without our parents, or our first date. We experienced these events so vividly that time then seems to us to have passed very slowly. According to David Eagleman of the Baylor College of Medicine in the US, recalling these memories makes us feel like they took forever. Many adults find life is routine and sometimes dull. For this reason, when they look back, they might feel like there are not many exciting things to remember. Therefore, time seems to be moving faster to them.12. What does the underlined word “diminish” in the second paragraph probably mean?A. get worse B stay unchanged C go up D cut down13. According to the third paragraph, which statement is true?A. Infants and adults process information in different waysB. The more information people process per day, the quicker time seems to be.C How much information people deal with varies with ageD Adults can hardly deal with any information14. What can we infer from David Eagleman’s words?A. Youth is the best time to enjoy some first time activitiesB. Young people’s lives are much more interesting than olderC. childhood memories are too precious to forget.D. psychological reasons make us experience time differently.15. What is the main purpose of this passage ?A. To tell us that life passes by quickly for adultsB. To explain why life speeds up when we grow olderC. To show us that adults’ lives are not as exciting as childrenD. To introduce us the difference between adults and children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。
