Motorbikes.C. Toy cars.D. Guide dogs.BIt's 3 o'clock and you've been hard at work. As you sit at your desk, a strong desire for chocolate overcomes you. You try to busy yourself to make it go away. But it doesn't. Here is another situation. Perhaps you are not feeling well. The only thing you want to eat is a big bowl of chicken soup, like your mom used to make when you were sick as a child. Food cravings are a strong desire for a specific type of food. And they are normal.Scientists at the website How Stuff Works compare hunger and cravings this way. Hunger is a fairly simple connection between the stomach and the brain. They even call it simply “stomach hunger.” When our stomachs burn up all of the food we have eaten, a hormone (荷尔蒙) sends a message to one part of the brain for more food, which regulates our most basic body functions such as thirst, hunger and sleep. The brain then produces a chemical to start the appetite and you eat. Hunger is a function of survival.A craving is more complex. It activates brain areas related to emotion, memoryand reward. These are the same areas of the brain activated during drug-craving studies. Because of this, some scientis ts call food cravings “mind hunger.” People often crave foods that are high in fat and sugar. Foods that are high in fat or high in sugar produce chemicals in the brain. These chemicals give us feelings of pleasure.In a 2007 study, researchers at Camb ridge University found that “dieting or restricted eating generally increases the possibility of food craving.” So, the moreyou deny yourself a food that you want, the more you may crave it. However, fastingis a bit different. They found that eating no food at all for a short period of time lessened food cravings.So, the next time you crave something very special, know that your brain maybe more to blame than your stomach.4. The author describes two situations in the first paragraph to _______.A. remind readers of their own special food.B. deepen the understanding of hunger.C. report the discovery of craving study.D. introduce the topic of the whole passage.5. What do we learn about food craving?A. It shows food is linked to feelings.B. It ensures a person survives hunger.C. It means the stomach functions well.D. It proves the brain decides your appetite.6. What's the likely result of dieting?A. The decrease of chemicals.B. The increaseof food desire.C. The refusal of fat and sugar.D. The disappearance of appetite.7. In which column of a newspaper can you see this passage?A. EducationB. EntertainmentC. ScienceD. Economy。

She began following a group of climbers who were getting ready to climb up to the top of Mount Baruntse in Nepal---- it stands just south of Mount Qomolangma at 23, 389 feet tall.Mera was easily frightened when the climbers first met her down in the village of Khare, so they were shocked when she suddenly bounded up next to them while they were coming down another mountain at 17,000 feet.Mera had passed dozens of other climbers that she could have pleased, and fixed her eyes on the leader of this month- long expedition(探险),Seattle-based Don Wargowsky. In no time they were like peas and carrots. Don happily shared his sleeping bag, tent, and meals with his new companion while the team was hiking to the Mount Baruntse Base Camp over the next two weeks.When it finally came time to leave the base camp and begin their climb up themountain,Don knew the walk was not easy for a dog, so he tied her up near the camp. “Shekept barking as we walked away,” said Don.“ Half an hour into our climb I felt a tickle(发痒) on the back of my knee. I looked down and saw Mera following right behind me just like before.”After reaching the last mountain camp before the summit(最高峰), the climbing team left Mera sleeping in Don`s tent with the hopes that she would not try to follow them up the risky climb.

Hawaians are strict about foreign animals.In the 1780s,the black rat was introduced to Hawaii.These ugly animals lived in Asia at first, but they moved to Europe in the lst century. Since then they`veslipped into European ships and voyaged the world with them.Since their arrival in Hawaii, black rats have fed on sea turtle(海龟)eggs. And they`ve been a leading cause in the e x ti n cti on( 灭绝) of more than 70 species of Hawaiian birds. They love to climb trees to eat bird eggs. They also compete with forest birds for food,such as insects and seeds.During the mid-1800s, the Hawaiian sugar industry was growing. But those wild animals were killing the fields. Black rats were destroying entire crops. What could a plantation owner do? The answer was simple. Import(引进) an animal known to end rats. In 1883 plantation owners imported 72 mongooses,which are small furry animals,and began raising them.People feel great respect for mongooses in their homeland of India. They are often kept tame(驯服的)in Indian households. Mongooses feed on snakes and rats, creatures that most people dislike. They are also very cute. And they kill deadly cobras(眼镜蛇).What`s not to love? Sadly, India is a much different place from Hawaii.When the mongooses got to Hawaii, they joined the rats in killing the birds native to Hawaii. It was not that the mongooses became friends with the rats.They still ate a bunch of them. But in Hawaii the mongooses had a choice. Hunt the tricky black rat or treat themselves to turtle eggs while enjoying the sunshine on the beach? Most took the easy choice.Now Hawaii has two unwanted guests damaging its natural beauty. The Hawaiians have learned their lesson. So don`t get upset when they don't welcome your pets with open arms. They`re trying to protect a delicate ecosystem there.8. How did black rats find their way to Hawaii?A. They were imported by native Hawaiians.B. They went aboard European ships secretly.C. They were brought to Hawaii by Asians.D. They swam all the way to Hawaii from Asia.9. Why were mongooses introduced to Hawaii?A. To be used to kill deadly cobras.B. To become great household pets.C. To help get rid of black rats.D. To help plantation owners harvest crops.10. Which of the following does the author probably agree with?A. Black rats get along well with mongooses in Hawaii.B. Black rats threaten many creatures native to India.C. Mongooses are unwelcome guests in Hawaii.D. Mongooses find it difficult to survive in India.11.What s the author' s main purpose in writing this text?A. To describe how black rats survive in Hawaii.B. To call for the protection of endangered species.C. To entertain readers with a mongoose's adventure.D. To explain why Hawaii says no to foreign animals.DStories are shared in many ways. They are described in books and magazines.They are read around the campfire at night. They are randomly dispensed(分发) from stand- -alone. kiosks(小亭).Wait, what was that last one?To r e v i v e( 复兴) lite r at ur e( 文学) in the age of fast news and smartphone addiction, Short Edition, a French company of short-form literature,has set up more than 30 story dispensers in the United States in the past year to give away stories at the push of a button at restaurants, universities and government offices.Francis Ford Coppola, the film director and winemaker,liked the idea so much that he invested( 投资) in the company and placed a dispenser at his Cafe Zoetrope in San Francisco. Last month public libraries in some other cities agreed they would be setting them up too. There is one on the campus at Penn State.A few can be found in downtownWest Palm Beach, Fla. And Short Edition plans to announce more, including at the Los Angeles International Airport.“Everything old is new again, ”said Andrew Nurkin, the director of the Free Library of Philadelphia, which is one of the libraries that set up the dispensers. “We want people to keep in touch with literature. We want to bring literacy to children and inspire creativity.”Here`s how a dispenser works: It has three buttons on top offering choices for stories that can be read in one minute, three minutes or five minutes.When a button is pushed, a short story is printed.The stories are free. They are chosen from a computer list of more than 100,000 original stories by writers whose work has been picked out by Short Edition' s judges, and t r a ns mitte d( 传播)over a mobile network. Offerings can be made to specific interests, like children's stories or romance. Short Edition gets stories for its list by holding writing contests.Short Edition set up its first kiosk in 2016 and has 150 machines worldwide. “The idea is to make people happy, ”said Kristan Leroy, the director at Short Edition. “There is too much unhappiness today.”12. What do we know about dispenser stories?A. They are short in form.B. They can be bought from kiosks.C. They can be read on smartphones.D.They are mainly taken from magazines.13. Where can you see the popularity of story dispensers in America?A. In Paragraph 3. B In Paragraph 5. C In Paragraph 6. D In Paragraph 7.14.Why were the story dispensers set up according to Andrew Durkin?A. To get rid of smartphone addiction.B. To make people happy.C. To improve people' s literacy.D. To reduce the financial stress of libraries.15. What is the best title for the text?A. Everything old is newB. Online reading: A virtual tourC. Short Edition is getting popularD.

He was getting colder by the minute.Nicholas had no idea where he was. He tried not to panic. He thought about allthe survival shows he had watched on TV. It was time to put the tips he had learnedto use.He decided to stop skiing. There was a better chance of someone finding him ifhe stayed where he was.

The set worked so beautifully when I first got it home that I would keep it on until stations signed off for the night. Fortunately, I didn′t get any channels showing all-night movies or I would never have gotten to bed.Then I started developing a problem with the set that involved static(静电)noise.For some reason,when certain shows switched into a commercial, a loud noisewould sound for a few seconds.Gradually, this noise began to appear during a show,and to get rid of it, I had to change to another channel and then change it back.Sometimes this technique would not work,and I had to pick up the set and shake itto remove the sound. I actually began to build up my arm muscles( 肌肉 shaking my set.When neither of these methods removed the static noise, I would sit helplesslyand wait for the noise to go away.

Beehives(蜂窝)---either recorded or real---may even prevent elephants from damaging farmers’crops.In 2012, scientist Lucy King and her team found that elephants avoid certain trees with bees living in them. Today, Lucy wants to see if African honeybees might discourage elephants from eating crops. But before she asked farmers to go to the trouble of setting up beehives on their farms, she needed to find out if the bees would scare elephants away.Lucy found a wild beehive inside a tree in northern Kenya and set up a recorder. Then she threw a stone into the beehive, which burst into life. Lucy and her assistant hid in their car until the angry bees had calmed down. Next, Lucy searche d out elephant families in Samburu National Reserve in northern Kenya and put a speaker in a tree close to each family.From a distance, Lucy switched on the pre-recorded sound of angry bees while at the same time recording the elephants with a video camera. Half the elephant groups left the area within ten seconds. Out of a total of 17 groups,only one group ignored the sound of the angry bees. Lucy reported that all the young elephants immediately ran to their mothers to hide under them. When Lucy played the sound of a waterfall(瀑布)instead of the angry bees to many of the same elephant families, the animals were undisturbed. Even after four minutes, most of the groups stayed in one place.Lucy is now studying whether the elephants will continue to avoidthe sound of angry bees after hearing it several times. She hasn’t tested enough groups yet to know, but her initial results were promising enough to begin trials with farmers. She has now begun placing speakers in the fields to see if elephants are frightened away.4. We know from the passage that elephants may be frightened of_______.A.loud noisesB.some cropsC.video camerasD.angry bees5.

It was more like he was open to accepting presents. He never had a sign out, never spoke and never looked at you to beg. He would just sit quietly on the side of the entrance, out of the way, have a little box outside, and thank everyone very politely who gave him something.He didn't look like the many people I knew in my town who lived on the streets. His clothes always looked quite clean. I often wondered how he'd gotten to live on the streets. And he was playing his guitar, just like the last time I’d seen him in summer. He hadn't noticed me then, being so deep into his music.I started to talk to him. He told me that he had been an epileptic (癫痫患者) as a child and as a young man now, he couldn't even get the job the social services try to offer people like him---everybody seemed afraid of the responsibility, even though he’d had no seizure(发作)for the past 13 years.I started feeling sorry for him, but then he said, "I’ve made my peace with that. I'm happy I got an apartment. " He said he'd gotten so much help, and he wanted to try to give back, starting with the music.I was so happy that he remembered his love for music, and shared his music with the people passing by. I was glad he found an apartment and had the inner strength not to let himself down, and as he said, “found his faith again.”8.What was the young man doing when the author found him?A. He was communicating with passers-by.B.He was waiting for the author.C. He was playing music.D. He was begging silently.9. In the authors opinion, what made the man different from other homeless men?A. He only wanted gifts.B. He could write music.C. He always begged near a shop.D. He always wore clean clothes.10. Why was the young man unable to find a job?A. Because he was too weak to work.B. Because he considered music to be his job.C. Because others misunderstood his illness.D. Because bosses were short of responsibility.11. What was the young man’s attitude towards his present situation?A. DoubtfulB. GratefulC. Unconcerned.D. Disappointed.DAn online supermarket company, Ocado in the UK, has recently displayed a robotic hand that can pick fruits and vegetables.When an embryo(胚胎) is in the body, the very first sense it develops is touch. The sense of touch is also the one that lasts the longest-as we get older and our vision and hearing begin to weaken, touch still remains. Humans use their touch to protect themselves, to create emotional relationships with other people, and to experience pleasure. Can you imagine life without it?The sense of touch comes from a network of nerve endings and special touch receptors(感受器) on the surface of the skin. While there are different kinds of touch receptors, they help us judge pressure, textureand vibration. They are located in our fingertips, palms, soles of our feet, face, lips and tongue.When we touch something, the mechano-receptors perceive the touch and through a network of nerves, send signals to the brain. This informs the brain about the location of the touch, the amount of force used, and the speed at which it was used.Several different techniques have been tried in the past to create such a robotic hand- using three fingers. But this latest design by SoMa copies the human hand. The gripper is made up of flexible materials which grasp on to the thing based on its size and shape. Then air pressure is used to control the movement of the robotic fingers to pick objects safely and without causing damage.The next step would be for the robot to judge how ripe the fruits and vegetables are, and apply pressure accordingly. Members of the research team are currently working on adding computerized vision to the robots, so that they can see what they are gripping.Does all this mean robots can replace people? According to Ocado, it helps improve productivity by removing some of the repetitive tasks done by humans.12. What is focused on in the second paragraph?A. The important role of the touch.B The origin of the touch.C. The process of transporting the touchD. The disappearance of the touch sense13. What does the underlined word “it” refer to?A. The brain B The touchC The nerve D. The signal14. What is the special feature of the latest robots?A. It can tell whether the fruits and vegetables are ripe.B. It can see what it is taking hold of.C. It can grasp things according to their shapes and sizes.D. It can take the place of people in workplaces.15. What might be the best title for the text?A. A robot to replace peopleB. A robot working all by itselfC. A robot for making thingsD.A robot with a gentle touch第二部分完形填空(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)阅读下面短文,掌握其大意,然后从各题中所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

The Guide tells us that the Wellness Center_______.A.is open six days a weekB.offers services free of chargeC.trains students in medical careD.gives advice on mental healthBRecordings of angry bees are enough to send big, tough African elephants running away, a new study says. Beehives(蜂窝)---either recorded or real---may even prevent elephants from damaging farmers’ crops.In 2012, scientist Lucy King and her team found that elephants avoid certain trees with bees living in them. Today, Lucy wants to see if African honeybees might discourage elephants from eating crops. But before she asked farmers to go to the trouble of setting up beehives on their farms, she needed to find out if the bees would scare elephants away.Lucy found a wild beehive inside a tree in northern Kenya and set up a recorder. Then she threw a stone into the beehive, which burst into life. Lucy and her assistanthid in their car until the angry bees had calmed down. Next, Lucy searche d out elephant families in Samburu National Reserve in northern Kenya and put a speaker in a tree close to each family.From a distance, Lucy switched on the pre-recorded sound of angry bees while at the same time recording the elephants with a video camera. Half the elephant groups left the area within ten seconds. Out of a total of 17 groups,only one group ignored the sound of the angry bees. Lucy reported that all the young elephants immediately ran to their mothers to hide under them. When Lucy played the sound of a waterfall(瀑布)instead of the angry bees to many of the same elephant families, the animals were undisturbed. Even after four minutes, most of the groups stayed in one place. Lucy is now studying whether the elephants will continue to avoid the sound of angry bees after hearing it several time s. She hasn’t tested enough groups yet to know, but her initial results were promising enough to begin trials with farmers. She has now begun placing speakers in the fields to see if elephants are frightened away.4. We know from the passage that elephants may be frightened of_______.A.loud noisesB.some cropsC.video camerasD.angry bees5. As mentioned in the passage, Lucy_____.A.works by herself in AfricaB.needs to test more elephant groupsC.has stopped elephants eating cropsD.has got farmers to set up beehives on their farms6.

AStay-at-home or working mom?Nowadays,there is a heated discussion: Which is worthwhile,being a full timeworking or a stay-at-home mom? Readers share their opinions and you're welcome toadd yours.Catherine(China)I love being a stay-at-home mom. In the beginning it was truly rough for me from being a workaholic(工作狂)to staying at home.Yet,I did not want my child to facegrowing up with both parents at work.So after discussing it with my husband,wedecided that I would be the one to stay at home.Now, our daughter is soon to be 3years old,and has an amazing personality. It's not for everyone but it is veryrewarding in the long term.Sassy(Canada)Taking care of children i s a temporary job,and children will grow up and leave.The longer women are out of the workplace,the harder it is to enter it.Women need torealize and accept that you do not want to be dependent on anyone for basic food,clothes and shelter. It has been hard to work and take care of my kids but Imake it work.Cynthia(US)Some days I think we shouldn't give up on our careers.And some days I'm jealous of the moms who get to stay home or at least work part time.I'm the only one thatsupports the family,so there will never be an option for me.I have the career andtitle I've always wanted but now I can't help but think it's at the expense of precious time with my family.Celina(US)Being a stay-at-home mom isn't always easy,but it is worth it! Being there with my children means they are getting the exact love and care I want them to have.Wedo not have a lot of money,but we've sacrificed to make it possible.1.What can we learn about Catherine?A.She stayed at home because she was tired about her job.B.Her husband agreed with her staying at home.C.Her daughter was very naughty.D.She accustomed herself to staying at home easily.2.How many working moms in this passage?A.1B.2C.3D.43.Which one is NOT true?A.Celina feels dissatisfied with the life now.B.Cynthia has no other choice but to get a job.C.Sassy is determined to be an independent woman.D.Catherine thinks that being a stay-at-home mom is worthwhile.BAn Indian barber has come up with a novel technique to give people haircuts using just a small comb and a burning candle instead of a pair of scissors.Just like anybarber, Dasharath Kumar,28, combs the hair and meticulously runs the flame of thecandle on the ends,giving it a unique finish.The'cutting-edge' technique has madehim the most demanded barber in his small village in Gulbarga in Karnataka in southern India.While Dasharath joined his family business when he was 15,the unique idea only clicked him five years ago.He says:"Electricity cut was common in our village and we were used to working in dark.But one evening while I was cutting the hair of acustomer, power went off and I had to use the light from a candle to finish the haircut. But the flames of the candle that night inspired me to think of using a new technique for trimming(修剪)hair.""I had bunch of regular customers so when I told them about the experiment,theyhappily said they trusted me and my skills and gave a nod for the new technique.Surprisingly,it came out very well.Since then there was no looking back."Started with only 20 pence,customers now happily pay him£1 for his novel wayof haircut.One of his daring customers Yusuf Khan,who waited for nearly two hoursfor his turn, said:"Every barber gives a haircut using scissors but the fun of gettinga haircut with a candle flame is unbeatable.Initially,I was not prepared for it but once I saw the magic of his hands, I never went back to a regular barber.”4.The best title for the passage is probably________.A. An amazing Indian barberB. A latest cutting fashionC. A regular barber's futureD. What made a good barber5.The underlined word"meticulously"probably means_________.A.casuallyB.carefullyC.freelyD.randomly6.When was Dasharath inspired to trim hair with a burning candle?A.At the age of five.B.After his graduation.C.After a power failure.D.When it's getting dark.7.What can we conclude from the text?A.No customers want to be back to Dasharath's salon.B.Dasharath charges more money than any other barber.C.A traditional barber can't make a living in the future.D.Many people are attracted by Dasharath’ s technique.CPublic transport is declining in the rich world.To those who have to squeezeonto the number 25 bus in London,or the A train in New York,the change might notbe noticeable.But public transport is becoming less busy in those places,and passenger numbers are flat or falling in almost every American city.That is despite healthy growth in urban populations and employment.Although transport agencies blame their unpopularity on things like roadworksand broken signals,it seems more likely that they are being outcompeted.App-basedtaxi services like Uber and Lyft are more comfortable and convenient than trainsor buses.Cycling is nicer than it was,and rental bikes are more widely available.Carsare cheap to buy, thanks to cut-rate loans, and ever cheaper to run.Onlineshopping,home working and office-sharing mean more people can avoid travellingaltogether.The competition is only likely to grow.More than one laboratory is developingnew transport technologies and applications.Silicon Valley invented Uber and,more recently,apps that let people rent electric scooters(滑板车)and then abandon them on the pavement.China created sharing-bicycles and battery-powered"e-bikes",bothof which are spreading.Transport agencies should accept the upstarts,and copy them.Cities tend either to ignore app-based services or to try to push them off the streets.That is understandable, given the rules-are-for-losers attitude of firms like Uber.But itis an error.It is doubtful that most people make hard distinctions between public and private transport.They just want to get somewhere,and there is a cost in time,money andcomfort.An ideal system would let them move across a city for a single payment,transferring from trains to taxis to bicycles as needed.Building a platform to allow that is hard,and requires much sweet-talking of traditional networks aswell as technology firms.It is probably the secret to keeping cities moving.8.What is the change in public transport in big cities?A.It is becoming busier.B.It is getting less popular.C.There are fewer traffic delays.D.There is more new transport.9.In the author's opinion,the reason for the decline of public transport is that_______.A.there are roadworks and broken signalsB.people are becoming healthier and employedC.cars and bikes are more and more availableD.transport agencies are seemingly less competitive10.How does the author develop his idea in Paragraph 3?A.By giving examplesB.By providing research resultsC.By stating argumentsD.By comparing different approaches11.According to the text,the key to keeping cities moving is________.A.to develop an ideal system that satisfies everyoneB.to build a platform that appeals to transport agenciesC.to provide people with more means of transportationD.to cater for both traditional networks and technology firmsDFor children, eating with their families is not only about preventing badoutcomes---it is also about developing good ones.Several studies have looked at the long-term effects eating with families has on children.Experts say that thesestudies do not seem to prove a cause-and-effect relationship.However,they do suggest a strong tie.About three years ago,the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development(OECD) looked at data from nearly three quarters of the worlds countries. Among its findings was the fact that students who shared a main meal with theirfamilies were less likely to skip school.Children who eat a main meal with their families are also less likely to bebadly-behaved.That is a finding of a study by The National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse (CASA) at Columbia University in New York.In the CASAreport,titled “The Importance of Family Dinners VIII",researchers say,"Teens who have frequentfamily dinners are more likely to say their parents know a lot about what's reallygoing on in their lives ..."They also claim that when teens say they feel closerto their parents,they are less likely to behave badly.Another study from the University of Montreal found that children who ate with their families experience long-term physical and mental health benefits.These children were physically in better shape and drank fewer sugary soft drinks.Theyalso seemed to have better social skills.One researcher,Linda Pagani says that there is"a handful of research suggesting a positive link between eating family meals together frequently and child andadolescent health".Pagani says that mealtimes shared with parents "likely provideyoung children with firsthand social interaction,discussions of social affairs and day-to-day concerns” .She adds that they may likely help the children have better communication skills with others.12.What does the underlined word "they"refer to?A.long-term effectsB. studiesC. expertsD. families13.In which aspect can eating together influence children according to the OECD?A.Academic performance.B. Physical health.C. Mental healthD. Social skills.14.How do children benefit from eating family meals together according to Pagani?A.By having healthy food and drinksB. By forming good eating habits.C.By becoming more social.D.By understanding their parents' life.15.What is mainly talked about in the passage?A.Easy tips on eating family meals.B. Benefits of family dinners to children.C.Links between eating together and child health.D. Findings of studies about enjoying family dinners.第二节(共5小题;每题 2 分,满分10 分)依据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最正确选项。

AA painting of a famous artist could cost several million dollars in the market. This is why many artworks-even those that are housed inside highly guarded museums-go missing. Here is a list of some of the most famous paintings that were lost, stolen or destroyed.Vincent Van Gogh' s Poppy FlowersThis artwork was housed at the Mohammed Mahmoud Khalil Museum in Cairo. It was first lost in 1977, but was recovered 10 years after. The second time this same Vincent Van Gogh painting was stolen was in August of 2010. The painting is estimated (估价) to be worth something between $50 and $55 million.Pablo Picasso' s Le Pigeon Aux PetitsStolen on May 20, 2010, this painting by Spanish painter Pablo Picasso is worth $28 million. It was stolen at the Musee d' Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris, along with five other artworks. However, the thieves threw the painting away in a trashcan when they were caught. But that container was emptied before the authorities got there. It was feared that the painting was already destroyed.Paul Cezanne' s View of Auvers Sur OiseLost on December 31, 1990, this artwork that used to be on exhibition at the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford was stolen the night before the city's Millennium celebration. The thieves planned the robbery in time with the fireworks exhibition during peak of the celebrations. This artwork is estimated to be worth $5 million.Covert Flinck' s Landscape with an ObeliskStolen on March 18, 1990, this artwork was at the Isabella Steward Gardner Museum in Boston. This painting by Covert Flinck was previously believed to be a Rembrandt creation. A huge cash reward of $5 million will be given to the person who can provide information leading tothe recovery of the painting.21. In which of the following cities was Le Pigeon Aux Petits stolen?A. Cairo.B. Paris.C. Oxford.D. Boston.22. Who was mistakenly thought to create Landscape with an Obelisk?A. Pablo Picasso.B. Paul Cezanne.C. Covert Flinck.D. Rembrandt.23. What can we infer about the four artworks mentioned in the text?A. Some of them are given an approximate price.B. They all are stolen when on exhibition.C. Some of them are lost 30 years.D. Some of them have been found so far.BIn the US TV series Friends, Rachel Green is a classic example of a pushover. More often than not, she gives in to her childhood friend Monic a Geller’s demands on trivial (琐碎的)things such as what to eat for a lunch, even if she has her own preference.Like Rachel, some people find themselves being constantly influenced by others. There are all kinds of reasons why they would act as easy-going and flexible as Rachel does. Maybe the topic of discussion just isn’t something that interests them. Take household issues for example. Most men don’t get overly excited at the idea of buying new kitchenware. So it’s not uncommon to hear a husband tell his wife “you can buy whatever you like” or “I don’t care”. Technically, he’s being a pushover. But he’s also being flexible, avoiding any future conflict.Have you ever been traveling with friends and disagreed with them about which scenic spots you should vi sit? Maybe you had your own opinions on where to go, but you just said, “Oh, I’m fine if we don’t go there. It’s your call.” Being easy-going is certainly a virtue that helps sustain good relationships and makes you a person that others want to be around. It can make you look like a pushover to others, but if you’re OK with that, then it’s fine. There’s nothing wrong with it.But if you hate being thought of as a pushover, then maybe it’s time you should learn to say “no”. No is a simple yet powerful word. You don’t have to do or participate in anything that you don’t want to. It won’t upset the people around you half as much as you fear it will, and if it does then they will get over it in time. Taking a firm stand clearly defines your likes and dislikes, whichcan also be an endearing (讨人喜欢的)character trait.24.What is a pushover likely to do when going to the cinema with a friend?A. Hesitate about which film to see.B. Choose to see the film her friend likes.C. Quarrel with her friend about what to see.D. Persuade her friend to see her favorite film.25. When it comes to buying kitchenware, a husband tends to tell his wife “you can buy whatever you like” because ________A. He wants to show his language techniques.B. He would like to please his wife.C. He just wants to avoid conflict in future.D. He is a caring husband26.What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 4 refer to?A. Doing anything friends ask you to do.B. Hating being considered as a pushover.C. Saying “no” to somet hing you don’t want.D. Being easy-going to the people around you.27.What’s the author’s attitude towards being a pushover?A. Neutral.B. DisapprovingC. Favorable.D. Reserved.CMy son Mason recently turned three and to celebrate it, we had a cookout with friends. Fortunately, many friends have kids his age. When kids congregate (聚集) there is a sense that chaos is right around the corner. Once the screaming begins, little bodies scatter to their moms and dads and fingers point at the perceived wrongdoer. This happens because they don’t know how to work together. They can learn, however.Interestingly similar enough, when the new school year begins, teachers putting the students in groups and expecting them to work together on a common task, things will break down. The teacher, wrongly assuming students are unwilling to work together rather than unable, will say things like “Work together,” or even “You are in ___ grade now. You should be able to cooperat e.” The teacher may even go as far as putting students back into rows because they do not seem ready to work in teams. Often, though, students want to work together, they just don’t know how. Fortunately, just like Mason and his friends, all students can learn to be effective members of a team.In any academic discipline, the ability to function as a team requires a host of skills. Becauseteamwork skills translate across content areas and provide the foundation for learning in today’s classrooms, they demand significant attention in our classrooms. So, how can teachers support students in acquiring these skills?Teachers can best teach teamwork skills early by having students practice them with activities that are independent of academic content. Depending on students’ ages, teachers may introduce one or more of the following teamwork skills during activities: developing and sharing ideas, listening, positive behavior, individual participation, and coming to agreement. Specifically, teachers should work with students to establish a common understanding of the desired skills and model examples and nonexamples before allowing them to practice on their own. Fortunately, there is no shortage of activities that will get students eager to think and work together. In addition to more well-known team-building activities, such as the “human knot,” there has recently been an influx (流入) of stand-alone team activities known as STEM activities.28. The underlined sentence in Para1 is written to ___________.A. picture a scene of kids playing together noisilyB. indicate the kids’ lack of ability to look after themselvesC. express the writer’s affection to the lovely kidsD. describe the kids’ reaction when they are in conflict29. The teachers try to persuade the students to cooperate on the assumption that ___________.A. the students should be effective team members naturallyB. the students are lacking in cooperative abilityC. the students don’t intend to cooperate wellD. the students need to be trained for cooperative tasks30.We can learn from the passage that_____A. The students are unwilling to work together.B. Teamwork indeed requires a wealth of skills.C. Teachers can best teach teamwork skills early by having students practice them with activities related to academic content.D. There are limited activities that get students trained in teamwork skills.31. What is the best way to teach the students teamwork skills in classrooms?A. Guide the students to have an understanding of teamwork skills.B. Let them enjoy stand-alone activities like STEM.C. Inspire the students to think positively.D. Practice their teamwork skills during activitiesDDon't let the name fool you: a black hole is anything but empty space. Rather, it is a great amount of matter packed into a very small area-think of a star ten times bigger than the sun squeezed into a ball approximately the diameter (直径) of New York City. The result produces such a strong gravitational field that nothing, not even light, can escape. In recent years, NASA instruments have painted a new picture of these strange objects that are, to many, the most fascinating objects in space.The idea of an object in space so massive and dense (密度大的) that light could not escape it has been around for centuries. Most famously, black holes were predicted by Einstein's Theory of General Relativity, which showed that when a massive star dies, the center of the star falls in upon itself, or falls apart. When this happens, it explodes part of the star into space and leaves behind a small core with its great density. If the core' s mass is more than about three times the mass of the sun, then the force of gravity is greater than all other forces and produces a black hole.Scientists can't directly observe black holes with telescopes that detect (探测) x-rays, light, or other forms of radiation. We can, however, infer the presence of black holes and study them by detecting their influence on other matter nearby. If a black hole passes through a cloud of matter, for example, it will draw matter inside in a process known as addition. A similar process can occur if a normal star passes close to a black hole. In this case, the black hole can tear the star apart as it pulls it towards itself. As the attracted matter accelerates and heats up, it gives off x-rays that radiate into space. Recent discoveries offer some evidence that black holes have a dramatic influence on the neighborhoods around them - giving off powerful gamma ray bursts, swallowing nearby stars, and accelerating the growth of new stars in some areas while postponing it in others.32. Why does a black hole have such a powerful gravity?A. Its area is small.B. It is empty space.C. Its density is great.D. It contains much light.33. How many stages are there from a massive star to a black hole?A. Two.B. Three.C. Four.D. Five.34. How do scientists research black holes?A. By studying matter nearby them.B. By observing them with telescopes.C. By collecting some light from them.D. By receiving powerful gamma ray bursts.35. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. The Birth of a Black HoleB. The First Picture of a Black HoleC. Some Unknown Secrets of Black HolesD. A New Scientific Discovery:Black Holes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。

We were standing in line when all of a sudden everyone around us began to back away. As I turned around I smelled a horrible body odour(气味) and saw two poor homeless men standing behind me. As I looked at the short blue-eyed gentleman closest to me, he was “smiling”. The second man fumbled(摸索) with his hands as he stood behind his friend.“Coffee is all, Miss.” Because that was all they could afford.Then I really felt it—I embraced(拥抱) the little man with the blue eyes.

Recent discoveries offer some evidence that black holes have a dramatic influence on the neighborhoods around them - giving off powerful gamma ray bursts, swallowing nearby stars, and accelerating the growth of new stars in some areas while postponing it in others.32. Why does a black hole have such a powerful gravity?A. Its area is small.B. It is empty space.C. Its density is great.D. It contains much light.33. How many stages are there from a massive star to a black hole?A. Two.B. Three.C. Four.D. Five.34. How do scientists research black holes?A. By studying matter nearby them.B. By observing them with telescopes.C. By collecting some light from them.D. By receiving powerful gamma ray bursts.35. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. The Birth of a Black HoleB. The First Picture of a Black HoleC. Some Unknown Secrets of Black HolesD. A New Scientific Discovery:Black Holes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。

Beehives (蜂窝)—either recorded or real—may even prevent elephants from damaging farmers' crops.In 2012, scientist Lucy King and her team found that elephants avoid certain trees with bees liv ing in them ・Today, Lucy wants to see if Africa n honey bees might discourage elephants from eating crops・ But before she asked farmers to go to the t rouble of set ting up beehives on t heir farms, she needed to find out if the bees wou1d scare elephants away.Lucy found a wi 1 d beehive inside a tree in nor them Kenya and set up a recorder. Then she threw a stone into the beehive, which burst into lifc・ Lucy and her assistanl hid in their car until the angry bees had calmed down・ Next, Lucy searched out elephant families in Samburu National Reserve in northern Kenya and put a speaker in a tree close to each family.From a distance, Lucy switched on the pre-recorded sound of angry bees while at the sametime recording the elephants wi th a video camera・ Half the elephant groups left the area within ten seconds. Out of a total of 17 groups, only one group ignored the sound of the angry bees. Lucy reported that all the young elephants immediately ran to their mothers to hide under them. When Lucy played the sound of a waterfal 1 (瀑布)instead of the angry bees to many of the same elephant families, the animals were undisturbed. Even after four minutes, most of the groups stayed in one placc.Lucy is now studying whether the elephants will continue to avoid the sound of angry bees after hearing it several times. She hasn" t tested enough groups yet to know, but her initial resuIts were promi sing enough to begin trials with farmers. She has now begun placing speakers in the fields to see if elephants are frightened away.4.We know from the passage that elephants may be frightened of .A.loud noisesB. some cropsC.video camerasD. angry bees5.As mentioned in the passage, Lucy .A.works by herself in AfricaB.needs to test more elephanl. groupsC・has stopped elephants eating cropsD・ has got farmers to set up beehives on their farms6.Why did Lucy throw a stone into a wild beehive?A・ To record the sound of beesB・ To make a video of elephantsC.To see if elephants would run awayD.To find out more about the behavior of bees7.Which of the following is true according to the passage?A.Young elephants ignore African honeybees.B.Waterfalls can make elephants stay in one place.C.Elephants do not go near trees with bees living in them.D.Farmers do not allow Lucy to conduct tests in their fields.Cr d just finished some shopping, and was getting ready to leave the supermarkes parking lot, when I heard music coming from the area of the shopping carts (手推车)• I knew it was someone T knew, well — the beggar, T couldn't real ly call him・He never begged・ It was more like he was open to accepting prosents・ He never had a sign out, never spoke and never looked at you to beg. He would just sit quietly on the side of the entrance, out of the way, have a lit tie box outside, and thank everyone very politely who gave him something.He didn" t look 1 ike the many people T knew in my town who 1 ived on the streets. His clothes always looked quite clean・ I oflen wondered how he,d gotten to live on the streets. And he was playing his guitar, just like the last time I’ d seen him in summer. He hadn,t noticed me then, being so deep into his music.T started to talk to him. He told me that he had been an epi ]eptic (癫痫患者) as a chi 1 d and as a young man now, he coul dn? t even get the job the social services try to offer people like him ------------ everybody seemed afraid of the responsibility, even though he" d had no seizure(发作)for the past 13 years・I star ted feeling sorry for him, but then he said, T ve made my peace with t hat. r m happy I got an apar tmen t. " lie said he,d got ten so much help, and he wan ted to try to give back, starting with the music.I was so happy that he remembered his love for music, and shared his music with the people passing by.

Because bosses were short of responsibility.11.What was the young man" s attitude towards his present situation?A. DoubtfulB. GratefulC. Unconcerned. D・ Disappointed.DAn online supermarket company, Ocado in the UK, has recently displayed a robotic hand that can pick fruits and vegetables.When an embryo(胚月台)is in the body, the very first sense it develops is touch.The sense of touch is also the one that lasts the 1 ongest —as we get older and our vision and hearing begin to weaken, touch still remains. Humans use their touch to protect themselves, to create emotional relationships with other people, and to experience pleasure. Can you imagine life without it?The sense of touch comes from a network of nerve endings and special touch receptors(感受器)on the surface of the skin・ While there are different kinds of touch receptors, they help us judge pressure, texture and vibration・ They are located in our fingertips, palms, soles of our feet, face, lips and tongue・When we touch something, the mechano-receptors perceive the touch and through a network of nerves, send signals to the brain. This informs the brain about the location of the touch, the amou门t of force used, and the speed at which i_t was used.Several different techniques have been tried in the past to create such a robotic hand—using three fingers・ But this latest design by SoMa copies the human hand.The gripper is made up of flexible materials which grasp on to the thing based on 1 ts sizeand shape. Then air pressure is used to control the movement of the robotic fingers to pick objects safely and without causing damage・The next step would be for the robot to judge how ripe the fruits and vegetables are, and apply pressure accordingly. Members of the research team are currently working on adding computerized vision to the robots, so that they can see what they are gripping.Does all this mean robots can replace people? According to Ocado, it helps improve productivity by removing some of the repetitive tasks done by humans・12.What is focused on in the second paragraph?A.The important role of the touch.B The origin of the touch.C.The process of transporting the touchD.The disappearance of the touch sense13.What does the underlined word "it” refer to?A. The brain B The touchC The nerve D. The signal14.What is the special feature of the latest robots?A・ Il can tell whether the fruits and vegetables are ripe・B It can see what it is taking hold of.C.It can grasp things according to their shapes and sizes.D.It can take the place of people in workplaces.15.What might be the best title for the text?A. A robot to replace peopleB・ A robot working all by itselfC. A robot for making thingsD.A robot with a gentie touch第二部分完形填空(共20小题;每小题1・5分,满分30分)阅读下面短文,掌握其大意,然后从各题中所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

It was Sunday morning and traffic was not heavy.I stopped my car at once and ran toward her. This little girl knew enough to run from a stranger.I tried to catch her in order that I could get her out of the road.Suddenly her father came running down a hill across the road from where I had parked my car. He ran right to her and caught her up, saying “bad girl” to her. I picked up the stroller and gave it to him. The father grabbed the stroller and walked toward where he came from without a word.I went back and sat in my car for a few minutes with my son.

The underlined word “gateway” in the last paragraph probably refers to ______.A. an opening in a wall that can be closed by a gateB. a place through which you can go to another placeC. the space when a door is openD. a means of getting or achieving somethingCBut Albert and other scientists are doing something to help people help themselves. They offer "assertiveness training" courses A.T. for short. In the A.T. Course people learn that they have a right to be themselves. They learn to speak out and feel good about doing so. They learn to be aggressive without hurting other people.In one way, learning to speak out is to get rid of fear. A group taking an A.T. Course will help the timid person to lose his fear. But A.T. uses an even stronger motive(动机)--- he needs to share. The timid person speaks out in the group because he wants to tell how he feels. Whether or not you speak up for yourself depends on your self-respect. If someone you face is more "important" than you, you may feel less of a person. You start to doubt your answers to problems. You can get to feel good about yourself. And once you do you can learn to speak out.44.

Course often _______.A. make people distrust their own answersB. make things more favorable for "superiors"C. help people know as much as their "superiors"D. help people become more important47. A good title for this passage could be "__________".A. The Need to ShareB. Talk Back When NecessaryC. One Way to Build Self-RespectD. One Way to Train Speaking AbilityDTests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on the body. People watched funny films, while doctors checked their heart rate, blood pressure, breathing and muscle. It was found that laughter has similar effects to physical exercise. It increases blood pressure, the heart rate and the rate of breathing; it also works several groups of muscles in the face, the stomach, and even feet. If laughter exercises the body, it must be beneficial.Other tests have shown that laughter appears to be able to reduce the effects of o pain on the body. In one experiment doctors produced pain in groups of students who listened to different radio programs. The group which tolerates the pain for the longest time was the group which listened to a funny program. The reason why laughter can reduce pain seems to be that it helps to produce endorphins (内啡肽) in the brain. These are natural chemicals which decrease both stress and pain.There is also some evidence to suggest that laughter helps the body's immune (免疫)system , that is, the system which fights infection. In an experiment, one group of students watched a funny video while another group served as the control group-in other words, a group with which to compare the first group. Doctors checked the blood of the student in both groups and found that the people in the group that watched the video had an increase in the activity of their white blood cells, that is, the cell which fight infection.As a result of these discoveries, some doctors and psychiatrists (精神病学家) in the United Stated now hold laughter clinics, in which they try to improve their patients' condition by encouraging them to laugh. They have found that even if their patients do not really feel like laughing, making them smile is enough to produce beneficial effects similar to those caused by laughter.48.
