It was made in 1734, in Italy, by Antonio Stradivari. Only about 600 of his violins are believed to still exist. They were regarded as the rarest and best instruments in the world.Roman’s Stradivarius was his musical partner for 38 years. Then bad luck struck; the violin was stolen from his office after a concert while he greeted well-wishers. He was shocked and upset by its loss. “Yes, it’s a bit like losing your arm,” he told his daughter, Jill.It took Roman a year to find and buy a new violin as the size and tones (音质) of each were different from his. He had to learn his musical pieces all over again! Roman kept playing into his 90s and taught at Boston University until he died in 2012, aged 101.His daughter says, “We wondered from time to time if the violin would surface, but... Our mother and father taught us to keep moving forward and not think over what life throws at you.”In 2015, the wife of the man who stole the violin wanted to know if it was really a Stradivarius. She had looked after him when he was dying from cancer and now it belonged to her. She took it to master violin maker and dealer Phillip Injeia. He recognized it immediately and contacted the FBI. Jill, who received the call from FBI, said in an interview, “I said, ‘I have to call my sisters. I’ll tell them not to get their hopes up,’ but Phillip Injeian said, ‘You don’t have to do that. This is the violin.’”Jill said they would sell the violin, not to a collector but someone who would play it. She said it would finally be in the hands of another great artist and its amazing voice would be heard in concert halls around the country.4.Why did Roman feel like he had lost an arm after the violin was stolen?A.It cost him a lot of money.B.It had served as a useful arm.C.It had been his musical partner.D.It was created by a famous maker.5.What is the turning point of this story?A.The FBI got in touch with Jill.B.The Stradivarius was found missing.C.Roman Totenberg died in 2012, aged 101.D.The violin was taken to a master violin maker and dealer.6.Why would the family like the violin to be owned by a violinist?A.They intended to become well-known.B.They wanted to sell it at a higher price.C.They hoped to remember Roman Totenberg.D.They wished to make the most of the Stradivarius.7.Which words can best describe Phillip Injeian?A.Expert and confident.B.Creative and careful.C.Learned and proud.D.Strong-willed and friendly.It’s reported that about 20 percent of the Amazon rainforest has disappeared during thespecies native to the Amazon River area, it’s affecting humans worldwide. When it comes to the protection of the Amazon, it’s hard for many people to relate because they don’t feel connected to the area. There are actually a lot of direct connections, no matter how far away we are.A connection that affects everyone on the planet is climate (气候) change. Planting new trees in the forest is basically a way of removing CO2 from the air. Rain forests have a carbon (碳) reduction nearly equal to half of what is in the air. About half of that is in the Amazon. Another case in point is a big snake called the bushmaster that lives in the Amazon. Today, millions of people use medicines made from its venom (毒液) to treat high blood pressure. So they have longer, fuller, and more productive lives.In the 1960s, there was only one highway in the entire Amazon. That’s an area as large as the continental United States with one highway and three million people. Today, there are between 30 million to 40 million people, countless roads, and about 20 percent forests have been cut down. But on the plus side, 50 years ago there were only two national parks and a national forest and a reserve in Brazil. Today, more than 50 percent of the Amazon is under some form of protection.“There’s been a lot of damage done and forest lost, but nothing is gone until it’s gone”, noted National Geographic explorer Dr. Thomas Lovejoy. “We want to see more shared planning between the departments of transportation, energy, agriculture, and the other industries in the area. We think Amazon cities can have higher quality of life and keep people in existing cities so there’s less reason to deforest.”8.Which can replace the underlined word “Deforestation” in paragraph 1?A.Planting more trees.B.Destroying the forests.C.Protecting the species.D.Polluting the rivers.9.What might the partial loss of the Amazon rainforest lead to?A.The increase of extreme weather.B.The removal of CO2.C.More people with high blood pressure.D.The overgrowth of the bushmaster. 10.How does paragraph 3 mainly develop?A.By making comparisons.B.By listing reasons.C.By explaining a definition.D.By making a summary.11.What is Dr. Thomas’ attitude towards the future of the Amazon rainforest?A.Doubtful.B.Worried.C.Positive.D.Uncaring.While screen time is known to affect sleep, new research suggests that interactive (互动的) activities, such as texting friends or playing video games, put off and reduce the time spent asleep to a greater degree than passive (被动的) screen time like watching television, especially for teens.The team studied the daytime screen-based activities of 475 teenagers using daily surveys. They asked the teens how many hours they had spent that day communicating with friends through social media and how many hours they spent playing video games, surfing the internet and watching television or videos. Finally, the researchers asked if they had joined in any of these activities in the hour before bed.Next, the team measured their sleep time for one week. The researchers found that the teens spent an average of two hours per day communicating with friends via social media, about 1.3 hours playing video games, less than an hour surfing the internet and about 1.7 hours watching television or videos. For every hour throughout the day that they used screens to communicate with friends, they fell asleep about 11 minutes later averagely. For every hour to play video games, they fell asleep about 9 minutes later. Those who talked, texted orplayed games in the hour before bed lost the most sleep: about 30 minutes later.Interestingly, David, lead author of the study, said the team found no obvious relations between passive screen-based activities and sleep. “It could be that passive activities are less mentally exciting than interactive activities,” said Anne, co-author of the study. “It’s a tricky situation,” she said. “These screen tools are really important to everyone nowadays, so it’s hard to put a limit on them, but if you’re really looking out for a teenager’s health and well-being, you might consider limiting the more interactive activities, especially in the hour before bed.”12.Which of the following belongs to interactive screen activities?A.Seeing movies.B.Watching videos.C.Texting friends.D.Surfing the internet.13.Who might lose the most sleep according to the text?A.Lucy who watched a three-hour movie before going to bed.B.Jack who had a 30-minute video chat with his brother before bed.C.Sam who played computer games for two hours throughout the day.D.Amy who chatted with her friends on WeChat for one hour in the morning. 14.What does the underlined word “tricky” mean in paragraph 4?A.Frightening.B.Awkward.C.Hopeless.D.Encouraging. 15.What can be a suitable title for the text?A.Screen time activities cut down our sleep hoursB.Interactive screen use reduces sleep time in teenagersC.Passive screen use is better than interactive screen useD.Parents should prevent children from using social mediaReading is a healthy habit that everyone should develop from childhood because of theThe following will discuss the effects of not reading books, so you can basically consider and judge where you are and understand how reading can be beneficial.17 People who don’t read and don’t like to read find it harder to learn than people who actually read. For example, most students who fail to develop a reading habit find it difficult to get through school. This then leads to students dropping out, which is bad for society. Reading is a habit that strengthens the brain and develops your inborn love ofwanting to learn more. Therefore, not being addicted to books closes you off from this.Narrow mindedness. Reading a variety of books broadens the readers’ mind. Most people who don’t read have a certain narrow mindedness to them that can easily be noticed.18 When you don’t read, you’re forced to take everything at face value and then create and shape your views in this way.Low brain power. One advantage of reading is its ability to improve brain function. Reading can help people become better thinkers and use brains more effectively. People who don’t read usually have low brain power because they don’t exercise the brain as much as readers do. 19Poor imagination. Reading books allows you to tap into your imaginative power. 20 This is important because it expands (拓展) your thought process as well as the ability to understand. People who don’t read books usually are short of the inspiration necessary to create imagination. This makes it difficult to be creative.A.Learning difficulty.B.The reason for this is simple.C.Such exercise strengthens the brain.D.Inability to fully understand the world.E.It then makes you picture what you read.F.It is developed slowly just as any habit would.G.The ability to read is important in today’s world.二、完形填空As Hallee gets to the finish line of the 800-metre run for kids, the crowd is cheeringWhen the twins were five, Jada decided that she wanted to be a(n) 27 .

It is the core principle of a sustainable (可持续的) life, but few of us can apply it in our own lives. Now, there’s a “lab” you can explore and discover a way toward living sustainably.3R Lab is located in Xuhui district, Shanghai. It offers exhibitions, activities and goods that showcase the 3R principle. The key to a sustainable life, according to Vincent T. M. Fong, the 32-year-old from Hong Kong who created the lab, is to make it a long-term promise. “A sustain able life should be sustainable itself in the first place. You can’t lead a sustainable life on a whim. Small and comfortable changes are exactly what you need,” Fong said.The lab regularly hosts ugly fruit markets, offering these strange fruits which are often thrown away by traditional markets and consumers at a quite attractive price. “They’re thrown away simply because of their appearance. Buying fruit regardless of how they look reduces food waste significantly in our daily life,” Fong commented.A wa ter tank with two types of straws is another equipment in the lab. “One type is made from normal plastics widely used in our daily life while the other is from PHA, a new replacement for plastics, and the water is sourced from the Suzhou River,” explained Ni Li, an employee of the lab. Visitors can see how the PHA straws degrade (降解) into a thin layer in just one month, while the others remain unchanged.“Leading a sustainable life does not necessarily mean sacrifice,” said Fong. Consuming ugly fruit and using degradable plastics are small changes that are good for the environment and easy to stick to. Only in this way can the 3R principle become part of our lives, he added.After working there for six months, Ni, who wasn’t mindful of the 3R principle befor e arriving at the lab, now uses her cup every time she buys a coffee. “The job has reshaped my life,” Ni said.8. What does the-underlined phrase “on a whim” in the second paragraph probably mean?A.In a rush. B.On a regular basis.C.Without any reason. D.As a common practice.9. What is the purpose of the ugly fruit market at 3R Lab?A.To reduce food waste. B.To promote healthy eating.C.To sell new kinds of fruit. D.To provide more affordable fruit,10. What can the water tank at 3R Lab show to its visitors?A.The water pollution caused by plastics. B.The degradation of PHA straws.C.The interaction between two types of straws. D.The disappearance of normal plastic straws.11. What can we infer from the last paragraph about Ni?A.She avoids going to traditional markets. B.She has devoted less time to her hobbies.C.She has got rid of a few bad habits. D.She is leading a low carbon life now. The year 2023 marked the 20th anniversary of China’s first manned space mission, with Yang Liwei becoming the first Chinese astronaut to go to space. Since then, another 17 astronauts have reached for the stars. The selection of the fourth generation of astronauts began in 2022 and is now in full swing. Experts revealed how difficult the training is before astronauts can explore the space.The human body is not designed for space life. Astronauts are faced with multiple challenges on a space mission. The changes in gravity can have an impact on their bodies. The feeling of isolation and closed living in a small spacecraft for months can damage their mental health. Emergencies during missions challenge their knowledge and ability to solve problems under huge pressure. So it’s no wonder that astronauts have to meet extremely high standards and go through a tough training program.To make sure that Chinese astronauts complete their missions and return to Earth safely, “Eight types, including over 200 subjects of training, were set,” Huang Weifen, chief designer of the astronaut system for China’s manned space project, told CCTV News. Apart from physical fitness training, it also includes basic scientific theories, psychological health, and mock (模拟的) missions. Among the training subjects, the most tiring one is underwater training. This training is designed for astronauts to adapt to the microgravity environment in space. According to Huang, astronauts stay underwater in suits weighing over 100 kilograms for six hours at a time. Water resistance (阻力) and the heavy suit make every move exhausting. “Nie Haisheng once repor ted a two-kilogram loss in weight after one underwatei training exercise,” said Huang, Each astronaut receives training for at least three and a half years before having the chance to go to space.Who can become astronauts? The first and second generations of Chinese astronauts were selected only from the Chinese People’s Liberation Army Air Force. However, since 2018, when the third-generation selection process began, ordinary people have been invited to apply. They can fly with pilot astronauts to space.12. What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about?A.High standards astronauts need to meet. B.Health problems caused by microgravity.C.Requirements of the tough astronaut training. D.Different challenges astronauts face in space.13. Which is the most physically demanding for its participants according to the article?A.Mock mission. B.Underwater training.C.Physical fitness training. D.Scientific theory learning.14. Why did Huang mention Nie Haishertg’s two-kilogram weight loss?A.To stress how challenging the training is. B.To describe Nie’s personal achievements.C.To introduce the weight limit for astronauts. D.To explain the importance of proper training.15. What is the most suitable title for the passage?A.The Qualities of Being an Astronaut B.Astronauts Faced with MultipleChallengesC.Preparing the Mind and Body for Space D.The 20th Anniversary of China’s SpaceMissionMinor Cold is the 23rd solar term of the 24 traditional Chinese solar terms. For most areas of China, it marks the start of the coldest days of the year. Still, bitter cold can’t prevent people from enjoying their lives. 16Enjoy Mutton hot pot and baked sweet potato.Mutton hot pot, and baked sweet potato are two recommended foods for Minor Cold. 17 It can help prevent cold from harming their organs. The yang energy in the three types of food is strengthened through their method of cooking: boiling, stir frying and baking.Eat Laba porridge.Another important traditional food for Minor Cold is Laba porridge. 18 Local people in Beijing often cook Laba porridge on the night of the seventh day of the twelfth lunar month. After one night’s slow simmering, all the ingredients melt into the porridge in the morning of the eighth day, becoming a warm delicacy to enjoy on cold days.19People in Nanjing used to take Minor Cold quite seriously, and they still keep a custom of eating vegetable rice to celebrate this solar term. The rice is steamed with aijiaohuang, sausage and salted duck that are all the specialties in Nanjing.Make Chinese traditional herbal medicine.20 Many people need them to prepare new medicines, which will be consumed before the Lunar New Year.“Nothing will ever be the same again”, Ally said to herself.Ally’s father died last summer.

Researchers varied the price tags placed on the sugary drinks over the eight-week study: one tag that simply said the price for the 12-ounce drink($1.52)and one that had the price and the message "Includes SF Sugary Drink Tax". All non-sugary drinks, which weren't subject to the tax, simply had the price of the drink($1.40).The researchers compared sales of the drinks during the study period to the two weeks before the study began when the sugary drink tax was in effect but there were no price tags on any drinks. Results showed sales of sugary drinks weren't lower during the two weeks, compared to sales before the tax, indicating the tax itself didn't reduce purchases of sugary drinks.The researchers then looked at the effects of the two different price tags. Results showed the share of sugary drinks purchased when the tags simply showed the price wasn't significantly different from the two-week period before the study, but did decline slightly when the tags mentioned the price included the added tax.In a separate online study, the researchers asked participants to estimate what the tax wouldbe on a can of their favorite drink that cost $1.52.The average estimate was 40 cents-much higher than the 12 cents actually demanded in San Francisco. When told the tax was only 12 cents, they reported they'd still purchase the drink.The findings suggest price tags should mention the tax but not the amount, for consumers tend to overestimate how much the tax is. "If cities want these policies to be effective, they need to regulate how sugary drinks are labeled at stores and they currently don't do that," said Donnelly, lead author of the study.4.What does the underlined word "flaw" mean in the first paragraph?A.Weakness.B.Solution.C.Imbalance.D.Evidence.5.What kind of price tags may discourage customers from buying sugary drinks?A.Price tags bearing sugar content.B.Price tags with the exact tax on them.C.Price tags saying added tax included.D.Price tags just showing the total price. 6.Which of the following may be Donnelly's suggestion?A.Stores label sugary drinks at will.B.Cancel sugary drink taxes at once.C.Publicize the impacts of sugary drinks.D.Cities urge stores to use proper price tags. 7.What might be the best title for the text?A.A New Way to Prevent FatnessB.Eating Habits and Food ConsumptionC.Sugary Drink Taxes Aren't Working WellD.Non-sugary Drinkers Benefit from New PoliciesHumans are emotional beings, showing feelings in our behavior and facial expressions. But whether these mean the same thing in different cultures has been hotly debated. Now a new study has found that in different social contexts, such as weddings, funerals and sports, people indeed show universal facial expressions.For the new study, Alan Cowen’s team used a machine learning model, Deep Neural Network (DNN), to systematically analyze facial expressions in thousands of different contexts. These contexts come from more than six million videos uploaded to YouTube by people in 144 countries.Facial expressions were rated by English speakers in India by selecting applicable emotions from a list of 31 labels, resulting in a total of 16 distinct facial expressions. Meanwhile, contexts were classified in a separate experiment. The results showed that people from different cultures share about 70% of the facial expressions used in response to different social and emotional situations.“This supports Darwin’s theory that expressing emotions in our faces is universal among humans,” the study co-lead author Dacher Keltner said. “The physical display of our emotions may define who we are as a species, enhancing our communication and cooperation skills an d ensuring our survival.”However, Lisa Barrett, from the Northeastern University College of Science notes that the English speakers in India were given the emotional word ratings rather than labeling the expressions themselves. They used emotion labels su ch as “anger” “fear” and “sadness” instead of descriptive terms, thereby inferring the emotions behind the expressions.She further comments that the raters (评定者) saw the faces in contexts which can’t necessarily be separated from the emotions themselves, and that the key point is that the raters are from just one country. “The ultimate value of Cowen and his colleagues’ study might lie not in the answers it provides,” she concludes, “but in the opportunity for further discovery that it opens up.”8.What can we learn from the text?A. The study is opposite to Darwin’s theory.B. People in different cultures show similar facial expressions.C. The team conducted the study by downloading facial expressions.D. Facial expressions and contexts were classified in the same experiment.9.How did Alan Cowen’s team conduct the study?A. By using a learning machine.B. By uploading videos to YouTube.C. By analyzing facial expressions.D. By using emotion labels.10.What can we infer from Dacher Keltner’s words?A. Social success is dependent on facial expressions.B. Facial expressions have constantly changed over time.C. Social skills reflect the ability of one’s expression management.D. Facial expressions play a vital role in humans’ development.11.What is Lisa Barrett’s attitude towards the study?A. Objective.B. Ambiguous.C. Critical.D. Contradictory.You may never know why the email will arrive and reasons offered for your rejection might be the real ones—or not. Bosses have always spied on their employees, then judged them. Now the rise of the online self means the employer’s eye can travel still farther.Even before the pandemic, research found that 28% of large companies had turned down applicants after carrying out such checks. And it is becoming more popular: Reed Screening,a large agency, was asked to run over a third more social-media checks in December this year than a year earlier. This month the government gave the practice approval when the Department for Education said schools and colleges “shou ld consider carrying out an online search as part of their due diligence (尽职调查)”.The way screening works is simple: Any “problematic” behaviours will be marked with a red flag. There are laws governing such online screening. David Erdos, head of the Centre for Intellectual Property and Information Law, says that companies are supposed to warn candidates before screening their social media and tell them that they have the right to hold back permission. Some companies follow these rules, but others may not. As for the right to refuse, it is hardly practicable. “Who on earth is… going to be that person who says, ‘Hang on a minute. I’m not happy about that?’” asks Mr Erdos. “That itself is likely to be a red flag.”All agree that the spread of online screening is alarming, as it is so unforgiving. People may be unable ever to be free of their online past, says Mr Erdos. As indeed some footballers, recently punished for comments made almost a decade ago when they were but teenagers, have found to their cost.Those within the industry think laws should be tightened, with punishment for illegal act. In the meantime, being very careful is advisable. In talks to university students, Mr Erdos warns them what companies will do to their social media when they apply for j obs. “They are universally terrified,” he says. And rightly.12.What can we know about online screening from Paragraph 2?A. It is turned down by large companies.B. It boosts the development of education.C. It is becoming increasingly acceptable.D. It highlights the wisdom of employers.13.What do applicants tend to do with online screening?A. They reject the red flags.B. They have to submit to it.C. They will charge the company.D. They postpone carrying it out.14.What is Mr Erdos’ opinion on postin g comments online?A. Companies are tolerant of it.B. Its influence is hard to erase.C. It should be under strict laws.D. University students are free to do it. 15.What could be a suitable title for the text?A. Big Employer Is Watching YouB. Fix Your Eyes on Online ScreeningC. Social-media Checks Are Around the CornerD. Checks Online Are to Blame for Unemployment二、七选五16.Technology has changed our lives and reshapes the way we live. Some of us love it and some of us are frustrated (懊恼的) with it.

But we can’t blame technology. We should not blame ourselves, either.⑤_______Indeed, technology is addictive, but our focus shouldn’t be on phones or computers, but on people and face-to-face conversations.A. This gives students flexibility.B. What we need to do is to find some balance.C. This makes it easy for students to make progress.D. Nevertheless, we have seen some benefits of technology.E.

For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.Venice, one of Europe’s most historical, romantic, and unique cities, is in danger of drowning — not in one of its famed canals but under the weight of people. Since 1980, there have been more tourists than residents in V enice and right at present the number 13 (climb) rapidly. As tourists arrive, so do businesses to support them. Small, local stores are being replaced by souvenir shops and fast-food joints; Lately, accommodations 14 (transform) to Airbnbs, driving the cost of living here forever upwards. As locals leave the city, the vacuum (真空) is filled with yet 15 (much) tourist investment and before you know it, the charm and culture of old Venice that attracted us here in the first place has been transformed and lost. It’s no wonder that 16 World Heritage Committee has made a plan to add “Venice and its Lagoon” to its World Heritage in Danger list.Venice is not alone. Croatian favourite Dubrovnik, with history and cultural excellence, is suffering the same fate. There were 5,000 residents in 1991, but in 2017 only 1,157 people were living in the Old Town 17 it became overcrowded with tourists and businesses flooding to them. Dubrovnik is a convenient stop for cruise ships moving around the waters of the Adriatic and its popularity has grown further following the success of Game of Thrones, 18 was filmed there.Many popular locations have started to apply strategies 19 (fight) the rising tide of tourism using a combination of legislation and financial instruments. Barcelona is limiting the number of licenses for tourist accommodation 20 reducing the number of cruise ships allowed to dock (停泊). A smaller number of tourists are allowed to visit the Old Town and 21 will need to pay a city entry fee. The tourist tax is being increased to a price higher than 22 (expect). Venice has recently introduced a tourist fee to discourage day-trippers.三、选词填空Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can beWhat makes the perfect winter read?As the weather turns and the sky darkens, autumn and winter can often feel like the perfect time for curling up with a good book.But I wonder if it’s just me who finds that my reading 23 seem to change along with the seasons? The books I might choose to read in some sunny garden are very different from the ones I want when the wind is blowing outside and a few precious hours of watery daylight are the best we can hope for.I always 24 writing that evokes (唤起) time and place, and in the midst of the coldest, darkest part of the year, I want more than ever for a book to be “a ball of light” in my hands, as Ezra Pound famously once put it — a(n) 25 of life and love.I also need a certain degree of comfortness in a winter read — something that will keep me warm when the weather won’t! Give me gothic (哥特式的) building in the snow, with heroines whose passions burn brightly. Or let me escape completely, into some fantasy 26 — but I’d still like my forests icy and pine smelling. Give me stories of 27 and re-birth. Remind me that this time of year has 28 , too.Katherine May’s beautiful, poetic deep thought on the season, Wintering, does precisely this. Seemingly, it’s 29 , combining aspects of her life with more universal thoughts on how we might winter well. But there’s a lyrical (抒情的), 30 quality to the writing that confuses plain concepts like “genre”. She 31 that in winter we need different tools to get us through the season and it also offers one such tool, since Wintering itself is the perfect guide book and 32 to see you through until spring.That’s why books that help me see the beauty of the season will always be high on my list of winter reads.四、完形填空Robot PetsIn July, Unitree, a Chinese company, launched Go2, its second-generation robotic dog.Priced from $1,270, this robot pet can walk, perform handstands, and take photographs. Equipped with a smart speaker, it responds to voice commands. Go2 joins the market as the latest in a series of attempts by scientists to create machines that can do everything a real animal does — and leave a lot less mess to 33 afterwards.The first robot dog available to buy was Sony’s AIBO. Released in 1999, AIBO was a(n) 34 hit — 3000 units sold in just under 20 minutes in Japan. Its name is a 35 of “artificial intelligence” and “robot”. AI is a computer programme that can learn from experience and perform tasks that usually require human 36 . AIBO was discontinued in 2006, but went back on sale in 2017.With cameras for eyes, AIBO 37 obstacles and safely explores its surroundings. Voice-recognition technology enables it to turn its head to face a person when they speak, and even identify different voices. 38 , the dog has been programmed to respond to physical contact, such as touching its back or patting its head — just the way a real-life puppy would react. AIBO also “ 39 ” over time, and its behaviour changes as it develops from a playful puppy into an adult.Electronic pets are 40 toys for children, though. They can be valuable companions for older people, too. In 2022, a study by the University of Plymouth found that robot 41 could improve the wellbeing of elderly people who live in care homes and also those suffering from a condition that affects the brain. They found that the cute robots can provide all the emotional benefits of a real animal, without any of the work that comes with taking care of one.As technology develops, robot pets will become 42 advanced. Whether or not they take the place of living, breathing, barking and purring pets in our homes remains to be seen.33.A.clean up B.get into C.sort out D.centre around 34.A.delayed B.instant C.gradual D.tricky 35.A.renew B.reunion C.combination D.representation 36.A.strength B.intelligence C.responsibility D.appreciation 37.A.detects B.signals C.overcomes D.processes 38.A.For instance B.By contrast C.What’s more D.After all 39.A.varies B.fades C.adjusts D.matures 40.A.more than B.nothing but C.no more than D.less than41.A.participation B.attempts C.design D.companions 42.A.literally B.increasingly C.ironically D.relevantly五、阅读理解A short period of sleep taken during the day is known as a nap. Naps don’t just have benefits for adults at work, though. They could also help pupils to make the most of their school day. Studies have shown that a 20 to 30-minute “beauty sleep” makes people more alert and focused. This improves people’s ability to remember new information, which would help school children concentrate during lessons. Experts say that napping also improves brain functions, such as memory and the ability to complete difficult tasks.The school day starts early, which means that pupils don’t always get enough sleep because there’s no chance to have a lie-in. Adding naptime during the school day would help exhausted pupils to make up for any sleep they’ve lost from getting up so early.There are long-term benefits to taking a short nap, too. According to a recent study from University College London, the brains of people who have regular naps are bigger than those who don’t. People’s brains naturally shrink when they grow old, and the results showed that little sleeps can help people’s brains to age more slowly.Although a nap can seem like a good idea, going to sleep for too long can actually make you feel worse. It’s not very pleasant to wake up from a daytime nap feeling confused and sleepy. Napping during the day can also have a negative impact on how well you sleep at night. This can create a cycle of not being able to sleep as well at night, leaving you feeling even more tired in the daytime. Sleep expert Dr Clete Kushida said, “It’s generally recommended to maximize sleep at night.”Another consideration is that there really isn’t time in the school day for pupils to go to sleep. Some parents and teachers are concerned that it would cause children to miss too much lesson time. Pupils might take advantage of the system and use their need for a nap as an excuse to get out of lessons.So, what do you think? Should school allow kids to have naps, or should you wait until the evening to catch up on your sleep?43.It can be inferred from the passage that ________.A.children need more naps than adults doB.naps improve memory, efficiency and beautyC.both children and adults are equally in need of napsD.naps can bring more benefits to children than to adults44.According to the passage, napping for too long is not advisable because ________.A.it may affect a healthier cycle of sleepB.school kids will feel too sleepy to wake upC.it can’t make up for the sleep lost from waking up earlyD.it extends the school day for kids to have enough lessons45.Which of the following statements can be learned about taking naps according to the passage?A.It’s better for babies to have as many daytime naps as possible.B.Regular naps can slow the rate at which brains shrink with age.C.There’s no need to guarantee night sleep if one has regular naps.D.Different from teachers, parents want their kids to have naptimes.46.Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?A.Should Schools Have Naptimes?B.How Could Naptimes Benefit Kids?C.Are Kids Losing Too Much Sleep?D.Do You Get Enough Daytime Sleep?If you’ve ever seen a river rushing down a mountain or played in breaking waves at the beach, you’ll know that moving water contains a lot of energy. A river can push you and your boat downstream, sometimes quickly, and waves crashing into you at the beach can knock you back, or even knock you over.This energy of moving water originates from the water cycle, where water evaporates or is released from plants, rises to higher sea level, cools, and changes into liquid, forming clouds. Rain or snow that falls from these clouds flows downhill due to gravity, forming rivers or melting into existing water paths.Hydropower (水电) uses this energy from flowing water. It uses turbines, which are turned by moving water. These turbines turn around a rotor inside a device called generator, turning the motion into electricity with the help of magnets.There are two primary types of hydropower facilities (设施). The first is called the run-of-the-river facilities, which channel river water through turbines. The electricity production follows the timing of the river flow. When a river is running full with lots ofspring rain or meltwater, the turbine can produce more electricity. Later in the summer, when the river flow decreases, so does the turbine’s output. These types of power stations are typically small and easy to build, but there is limited ability to control the amount of electricity they produce.The second type is the dam (大坝)-based facilities. These use a solid dam to hold back the flow of a river and create an artificial lake behind it. The dam operator releases water from his lake, which flows through pipes inside the dam. Turbines within the dam generate electricity as the water passes through them, and then the water flows out the other side. These facilities are usually large and can affect river habitats, but they can also produce a lot of electricity in a controllable manner.Hydropower depends on the availability of water in flowing rivers. As climate change affects the water cycle, some regions may have less rainfall and therefore less hydropower generation. Since hydropower is a form of renewable electricity, it can play a role in limiting climate change. Hydropower facilities can also help avoid any imbalance in electricity production from wind farms and solar power plants.47.The underlined word “evaporate” in paragraph 2 can be replaced by “________”A.form a circle B.turn into a gasC.fall to the ground D.change into liquid48.According to paragraph 3, which of the following words best fits the box with “?” in the picture of a hydropower setup?A.turbine B.magnet C.pipe D.rotor 49.What can we learn about the two basic types of hydropower facilities mentioned in the passage?A.Only dam-based facilities use water to generate electricity and they are easy toconstruct.B.Electricity production by the run-of-the-river facilities doesn’t vary with river flow.C.Dam-based facilities provide a more considerable and adjustable electricity supply.D.Run-of-the-river facilities have a larger impact on river habitats than dam-basedfacilities.50.What is the author’s attitude towards hydropower?A.Optimistic B.Critical C.Doubtful D.IndifferentKeeping a bit of the outdoors inside is nothing new, but houseplant collections have become a popular social media trend — which means that more people than ever are discovering the comfort and beauty that caring for plants brings.51 Exposure to greenery, whether you have indoor plants, take walks outside or tend to a garden, has been found to have multiple mental-health benefits, such as lowering stress, decreasing feelings of depression, increasing sociability, restoring focus, improving cognitive performance, improving mood and increasing self-esteem.“One study showed that patients at a hospital who had plants in their room reported less pain, lower blood pressure, less fatigue and less anxiety than patients without plants in their rooms,” says Jenny Seham, a New York-based psychologist. She explains: “Cortisol, the stress hormone, has been shown to lower with plant interaction, reducing fatigue, irritability (易怒) and blood pressure.”Research has also shown that having plants and gardening increase productivity and levels of serotonin, the neurotransmitter responsible for lifting our mood. 52 And it is also opposed to dwelling on the past or worrying about the future.Before you fill your space with greenery, consider how you’ll interact with your plants.53 Can you care for them daily?If you have a small space or aren’t sure how much time you’re willing to invest in “plant parenting.” Start slow. “ 54 It can engage you by its smell or colour, creating a positive mood response with every interaction,” says Seham.A.For instance, is there enough space for plants in areas where you spend a lot of time?B.Half the fun of gardening is that you never know exactly what’s going to come up.C.It’s a feel-good hobby that’s supported by science.D.While indoor gardening can boost your feelings of wellbeing, help reduce stress and promote relaxation, it’s not, of course, a substitute for a trained mental health professional.E.The theory is that plant care helps us focus on the present moment and provides a feeling of accomplishment.F.Just one plant can make a difference.六、完成句子七、翻译60.应该采取积极措施来防止疾病蔓延。

Once again, Scott’s craftsmanship (技艺) is on show here, but it’s in service of a deeply shallow screenplay. A great actor is reduced to a ghostly presence in the middle of the movie, and his partner, the character who needs to give the film a beating heart, comes off as flat and hollow.One of the problems is that the film script tries to put a lot of life into the running time of a single film. Naturally, it opens during the French Revolution, as Napoleon climbs up the political ladder of France with his war talents above all else.Another part of the problem is that Kirby, the leading actress never really understands what to play with Josephine, a mysterious celebrity (名人) who becomes too much of a mirror for Napoleon. She couldn’t give Napoleon a son, which resulted in their break-up.Was Napoleon the kind of world leader whose own unsafety resulted in killings we have seen in histo ry? That’s here in a few places, but Scott is uninterested in making any sort of statement about Napoleon or men like him. A very just-the-facts approach of “Napoleon” is incredibly disappointing for a filmmaker who usually finds so much depth in the stories he tells. Worst of all, by the time “Napoleon” gets to Waterloo, we don’t know much more about the main character than we did when we came in. That’s a problem.Having said that, the wonderful war scenes in “Napoleon” may be enough to prove its existenc e for fans of historical war films. Whether its bloodied bodies breaking through ice or waves of soldiers rushing into battle, “Napoleon” has some fantastic battle scenes. Maybe the point is that Napoleon Bonaparte was only truly alive when surrounded by so much death.4. How do you understand the underlined word “hollow” in Paragraph 1?A.Solid. B.Deep. C.Empty. D.Smooth.5. What can we infer from Paragraph 2 to 4?A.The film successfully covers Napoleon’s whole life.B.Kirby has a good understanding of how to play Josephine.C.People couldn’t know Napoleon better through this film.D.There are some outstanding features of “Napoleon”.6. What does Paragraph 5 mainly talk about?A.The successful battle scenes in “Napoleon”.B.The achievements of Napoleon Bonaparte.C.The wars Napoleon Bonaparte fighting in.D.The reason for Napoleon Bonaparte’s aliveness.7. What type of writing is this text?A.A news report. B.A film review.C.A historical document. D.A science fiction.The Longtaitou Festi vl, which means “dragon-raises head” in Chinese, is a traditional Chinese festival held on the second day of the second month in the Chinese lunar calendar. So, it’s also called Eryueer Festival. In Chinese culture, the dragon is an auspicious (吉利的) animal that dominates clouds and rains. The 2nd day of the 2nd lunar month is thought to be the day when dragon awakes and raises its head according to the Chinese folk legend. So the day is called Dragon Heads-raising Day. After the day, spring is coming and there will be more and more rain. People think these credits (功劳) go to the dragon. So the day is also called Spring Dragon Festival. Since the Tang Dynasty (618-907 AD), Chinese people have had the custom of spending the Spring Dragon Festival.The most popular custom on the Dragon Heads-raising Day is cutting hair. Dragon is highly honored for its dignity (尊贵) and power for good. It is thought to be auspicious to cut hair on the Dragon Heads-raising Day. Luck and opportunities will always knock you in the year. So, on that day, barbershops’ (理发店的) businesses are growing and full of customers.The most common foods for celebrating the festival are popcorns, pancakes, noodles, dumplings, fired soy beans and pig’s head. People in different areas have differe nt traditions about the food on the day. In Beijing, people eat Lvdagunr (Glutinous Rice Rolls with Sweet Bean Flour) and spring pancakes on the day. In Shanxi, people like to eat fried dough twists (油条) and pancakes. In Shandong, fried soy beans, noodles and dumplings are the festival food. In Fuzhou, the salted porridge made of glutinous rice, celery, scallion, garlic, fry dried shrimps and shredded meat is eaten. These show people’s hope to be blessed (保佑) with favorable weather and plentiful grain harvest by the dragon.8. Which of the following is true about the Longtaitou Festival?A.It dates back to Song Dynasty.B.It is celebrated for two days.C.It attracts fewer people than other festivals.D.It suggests the return of spring.9. Why do people cut hair on the Dragon Heads-raising Day?A.It is the most popular custom.B.It is in honor of dragon’s dignity and power.C.It is people’s wish for luck and opportunities.D.It is a sign of barbershops’ prospering businesses.10. What can we infer from the third paragraph about the Longtaitou Festival?A.People in China share the similar traditional foods on he day.B.Foods for celebrating the festival usually bear people’s best wishes.C.Salted foods are used to celebrate the festival throughout China.D.Traditional foods on the day are prepared for the dragon to eat.11. What might be the best title for the text?A.The Dragon Heads-raising Day.B.The celebrations of the Longtaitou Festival.C.The origin of the Longtaitou Festival.D.The purpose of the Dragon Heads-raising Day.Should martial arts be part of the school curriculum (课程)? In the United States and most of Europe, self-defense is not taught at schools. Yes, schools have after-school clubs with trainers from both inside and outside the school using the gyms and classroom to teach a big range of martial arts, but schools very rarely have it on their curriculum, let alone as a main subject.But after new research that shows that obesity (肥胖) levels are still rising in the first world at a surprising rate, some are suggesting that martial arts may help fight obesity, and also help children become better adapted to the wider world in terms of self-defense and discipline (自律).Martial arts provide not just a physical work out, but also a chance to develop self-defense skills while training both the body and mind to be disciplined and mindful. Studies have shown that there is a significant connection between practicing martial arts and self-esteem (自尊). Through the arts, students can develop discipline, and cultivate respect for different cultures-something even moreimportant than ever before in our increasingly divided societies. Martial arts also strengthen muscles,improves flexibility and balance. Everyone knows that with better physical health, come better, happier lives.However, some have been keen to point out that yes, martial arts in every school would be great, but finding those who are trained and qualified (合格的) to teach martial arts could probably prove to be challenge. They believe it is a chicken and egg situation, where without compulsory (强制的) curriculum of martial arts, those who are good at it may never find themselves in a dojo (武术馆) to find out. But to bring it to everyone you need experienced trainers who can teach the martial arts without fear of mishap (不幸事故) or physical damage.12. What’s the topic of this text?A.What martial arts are.B.Whether martial arts should be on school curriculum.C.Who should teach martial arts as a main subject at school.D.How martial arts work for schools.13. Why should martial arts be added into the curriculum?A.Self-defense is not taught at schools.B.Obesity levels are still rising fast in the world.C.It provides physical and mental benefits.D.It can help prevent physical damage.14. What are the “chicken” and the “egg” in the “a chicken and egg situation” in the last paragraph?A.Building a dojo and finding the trainers..B.Teaching martial arts and the physical damage.C.Lack of trainers and the fear of mishap.D.Lack of trainers and no compulsory curriculum of martial arts.15. What is the author’s attitude towards adding martial arts to the curriculum?A.Unclear. B.Uninterested. C.Disliking. D.Negative.Even small amounts of processed meat can greatly raise your cancer risk, the World Cancer Research Fund (WCRF) writes. The WCRF update their guidelines every decade, and in this one, they outline three main problems: tobacco, red processed meat, and alcohol (酒精). 16 Almost half of all cancer cases are preventable, they write, and the most straightforward way is through a healthy diet. But what does that mean?No smoking17 While this is not strictly a part of a healthy diet, smoking has long been proven to cause a wide variety of cancers, as well as increase the risk for cardiovascular diseases and other serious health issuesAvoid alcoholDecades ago, people thought that you could enjoy alcohol in low to moderate quantities without causing a health risk. Recent research seems to suggest that even in low quantities, drinking alcohol can greatly increase, your risk of cancer. 18 So, better avoid it.Red meatThe list wouldn’t be complete without red meat. As other studies before it, the WCRF report further emphasizes that red meat is also associated with an important rise in cancer risk, especially processed red meat. 39. 19 No amount of processed red meat is safe if you want to minimize your risk of cancer.The findings don’t necessarily offer something -they just repeat what mountains of research are already saying: if you want to avoid, cancer, you need to eat more things that are good for you, less of the things that are harmful to you, and be at least somewhat physically fit. 20After a decade of climbing, I gradually started free soloing (单人徒手攀岩).

Grammar and VocabularySection ADirections: After reading the two passages below, fill in the blanks to make the passages coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.(A)How to Water PlantsAll plants need water. The watering of plants plays a major role in helping plants grow healthily. It seems simple but actually requires many considerations.Let’s take a close look at the water plants need first. Plants (21)_________ grow in places with low rainfall require more water. And plants (22)_________ ability to adjust themselves to dry conditions is strong can live with less watering.When it comes to tools, a garden pipe (管子) long enough to reach the furthest part of the garden (23)_________ (prefer). This ensures enough water is provided for the plants and helps to make watering much (24)_________ (easy).An inexperienced gardener may water a little each time but several times a day. This is undesirable (25)_________ it does not help roots to grow deep. Besides, we’d better avoid watering in full sun (26)_________ the leaves won’t lose water quickly from the surface.(B)18th Birthday in ChinaIn China many people celebrate their 18th birthday as an important one because that suggests coming of age, which is (27)_________ term used to describe the transition between childhood and adulthood. It marks the beginning (28)_________ a young person is expected to have the related rights and responsibilities of adulthood.In ancient China, the coming-of-age ceremony was an important ritual for a child that was going to set foot (29)_________ the grown-up world. It dates back to the Zhou Dynasty and bas a history of over 2,000 years. According to the records in Liji, boys would participate in a capping ceremony when they (30)_________ (be) 20, and girls a hair-pinning ceremony at the age of 15.After the ceremony, they were considered adults and (31)_________ get married. According to the book, human beings are human because of all the rituals and polite behaviors. But polite behaviors won’t start (32)_________ people are properly dressed, so during these ceremonies, boys and girls would ritualistically put on carefully-prepared hats and hair accessories (发饰) to show that they are formally dressed for the adulthood.Section BDirections: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one word more than you need.Go RecyclingNo one looking at the state of Earth in 2023 can be in any doubt that we are facing three serious environmental problems: climate problem, loss of biodiversity (生物多样性) and pollution of air, soil and water. To solve the problems, we increase the use of electric cars, 33 greener eating and reduce plastic use. However, sometimes these solutions can be opposite to the expected goals. For instance, creating space for biofuel crops to give off fewer pollutants and greenhouse gases can, in fact, 34 increase the cutting down of trees. That means in most cases solutions aiming at one problem each time are 35 to be effective. And, what is perhaps lacking is a(n) 36 of how interlinked these problems are.We should realize that a key 37 linking al the three problems is waste. The root cause of global warming is CO2, a waste gas. The seas are polluted by plastic and other waste products. We 38 forests, among other things, to grow more food — much of which goes to waste.A shocking figure lies at the heart of our special report on our world — of the more than 100 billion tons of things that humans use each year, hardly 10% is recycled. That makes it obvious a full-range war on waste should be paid 39 attention. The situation requires our speedy moving away from the way of thinking — “take, make, throw” — towards a more recyclable one, which means we should begin 40 the products and when they reach the end of their useful lives, they can be recycled.Solving the three problems calls for a huge transition with joint efforts. Governments must take the lead by introducing laws with the purpose of rewarding green practices, such as the 41 of waste. Industries can reduce, re-use and recycle wherever possible, and 42 themselves with suppliers and the like-minded to realize recyclable business models.Ⅱ. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Listening, speaking, reading and writing are necessary to everyday life, where language is the primary tool for expression and communication. Studying how people use language — what words and phrases we unknowingly 43 — can help us better understand ourselves and why we behave the way we do.Linguists attempt to 44 what is individual and general about the language we use. They also try to find how it came into use and the ways it 45 over time. After researches, they consider language as a cultural, social and mental thing.“Understanding why and how languages are different from one another tells about what is human, and in contrast, discovering what’s 46 about languages can help us understand the heart of our humanity,” said Dan Jurafsky, the Professor in Humanities and chair of the Department of Linguistics at Stanford.The stories below show some of the ways linguists have 47 many parts of language.Stanford linguists have found that even the smallest differences in language use is 48 the speakers’ belief,according to research. One study finds that a(n) 49 harmless sentence, such as “girls are as good as boys at math,” can in some way reflect sexist stereotypes (性别刻板印象). The statement’s grammatical form suggests that being good at math is more 50 for boys than girls, the researchers said. Language can play a(n) 51 role in showing how we and others understand the worldStudying other languages helps us have a better understanding of 52 around the world. People speak about 7,000 languages worldwide. Although there are a lot of similar things among languages, each one is 53 , both in its structure and in the way it reflects the culture of the people who speak it. Jurafsky advised that we shouldn’t only 54 our own language — it’s also important to study other languages and how they develop as time changes. They can help us understand what is rooted in humans’ different way of communicating with one another.Linguists study how certain speech models match special 55 , including how language can influence the buying decision or their social media use, and they both vary a lot among people. 56 , in one research paper, a group of Stanford researchers examined the differences in how two parties — Republicans and Democrats, who have different ways of speech, express themselves online. The purpose is to help us know how a(n) 57 difference of beliefs can occur on social media.“Understanding what different groups of people say and why is the first step in deciding how we can help bring people together,” Jurafsky said.43.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A. B. C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)I’m a huge fan of the Pacific Northwest and its bright green forests, rough coastline, and beaches decorated with wood, but visiting a top national park in summer often brings the opposite of what I come for — being alone — ashuge crowds try hard to park and take photos. So, my last visit to Olympic National Park was in mid-September. I ended up bathing in the peace and quiet of forest among ancient trees and staying close enough to nearby communities to feel safe.I thought that taking the jump from my comfortable hotel room in the park into the great outdoors was unpleasant at first. However, once I began walking slowly and aimlessly along the Hoh River Trail there and slowing down to observe beautiful sunlight and tiny mushrooms that looked like colorful umbrellas, I felt my breath deepen and my nervous system begin to relax for the first time in a long time. What I want to say is that just because the world seems obviously set up for twosomes doesn’t mean you have to let such a standard keep you from living your dreams right now. Solo travel has made me stronger and braver than I ever thought possible. It has opened up my worldview by throwing me out of my comfort zone again and againWhen it comes to living conditions, the national park not only offers 15 campgrounds across its huge area, it’s also home to five other choices for guests who would prefer not to sleep alone inside a tent — the small national park houses. Although I enjoy being alone, I have to admit that one of the coolest things about these small houses is that they are there to strengthen connection among strangers, and as such, there is usually a big fireplace next to excellent armchairs and sofas where guests can move around and make small talks at night. In one small house called Lake Quinault, I talked with grey-haired seniors about the best old-growth forest walks and asked hotel workers about the Roosevelt Dining Room (so named after Franklin Delano Roosevelt, the president during 1933-1945, came to visit), right next door.58. What made the author avoid visiting Olympic National Park in summer?A. The wish to stay close to communities.B. The likelihood to meet crowds of people.C. The quiet environment in an ancient forest.D. The rough coastlines and the woody beaches.59. According to paragraph 2, the author thinks that traveling alone can ______.A. keep opening up her worldviewB. slow her down in living her dreamsC. stop her leaving her comfortable zoneD. give her a chance to stay in hotel rooms60. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. Seniors in Lake Quinault are the best forest walkers there.B. The park offers five completely different places to stay in.C. Big fireplaces in houses are meant to strengthen connection.D. The author stayed in a house next door to a famous president.61. The passage is mainly about ______.A. the author’s love for the Pacific NorthwestB. the author’s solo trip to Olympic National ParkC. the greatest tourist attractions in Olympic National ParkD. the brief comparison between group travel and solo ones(B)The connection we have to cats is so strong it feels almost as though they can read our thoughts, study our moods, and even judge how to behave based on our needs. But what really goes on in their sweet, furry heads?Research suggests that cats don’t necessarily see us as any different from them. While cats understand that their human caretakers are larger than they are, they continue to behave around us in the same way as if they were around other cats. The only key difference is that cats meow to humans, not other cats.Owners wondering about what the cats are thinking about should turn to cat body language. Since these are the ways your cat primarily communicates with you, studying their body language can help you understand then on a deeper level and you may start with tails:We may think we have great insight into “cat thinking”, but we may never fully understand them. There exist lots of misunderstandings about cats, most notably:*Cats try to be alien and prefer to be alone. No! They are actually social animals who hope for close relationship.*Purring (making a low continuous sound) only means happiness…In fact, it can also suggest pressure, fear, or pain. Keep an eye out for illness, and be prepared in the case of an unexpected accident.*Cats scratch (抓) to anger people. Wrong again! Cats need to act out this to give themselves great pleasure and comfort.A recent study concluded that cats, when given a choice between playing with certain toys or having interactive fun with a human being, decisively choose to play with a person. For us here at Cat Care of Vinings, it’s two-sided!As always, please call us with any questions or concerns. Or, let us know what you believe cat thinking is all about!Tags: Cat Thinking Cat Thoughts My Cat’s Brain What Does My Cat ThinkPosted in: The Cat’s MeowPrevious: A Pun-fact Match: The Keys to Successful Cat AdoptionNext: Your Guide to Fourth of July Cat Safety62. We may find this passage from a ______.A. newspaperB. posterC. magazineD. website63. If the owner gives the cat its favorite food, what will it probably do?A. Keep its tail low.B. Hook its tail.C. Hide its tail.D. Shake its tail.64. The cat may prefer to ______.A. interact with peopleB. purr to suggest angerC. keep away from man-made toysD. scratch to attract attention(C)Nothing compares with the joy of coming home to a lovely pet. Besides keeping one company, pets may also decrease stress, improve heart health, and even help children with their social skills. Over the past 10 years, researchers have been looking at what the possible effects are.Animals can offer comfort and support. Dogs are espe cially good at this. They’re sometimes brought into hospitals or nursing homes. Ann Berger, a researcher at the NIH Clinical Center, teaches the patients with serious diseases about mindfulness to help decrease stress and manage pain. “Mindfulness includ es attention, awareness, e tc.,”Berger says, “all those are things that animals bring to the table. People kind of have to learn it, while animals do this innately.” Researchers are also studying the safety of bringing animals into hospital settings because animals may bring people more germs (病菌). A current study is looking at the safety of bringing dogs to visit children with a certain kind of illness. Scientists will be testing the children’s hands to see if there are dangerous levels of germs brought by the dog after the visit.Dogs may also help in the classroom. One study found that dogs can help children with ADHD, a disease related to attention. Researchers divided children with ADHD into two groups. The first group of kids read to dogs once a week for 30 minutes. The second group read to toys like dogs. After 12 weeks, kids who read to the real animals showed better social skills. They also had fewer behavioral problems. “Animals can become a way of building a bridge for the social communication,” says Griffin, a child development expert at NIH. He adds that researchers are trying to better understand these effects and whom they might help.While pets may bring many health advantages, an animal may not work for everyone. Recent studies suggest that living with pets at an early age may help protect young children from developing allergies (过敏), but for people who are allergic to certain animals, having pets in the home can do more harm than good.Researchers will continue to explore the many effects of having a pet. They are trying to find out what’s working, what’s not working, and what’s safe.65. When the author says “animals do this innately” in paragraph 2, he probably means ______.A. animals learn from humans to do thisB. animals teach people to stop doing itC. animals are born to be able to do thisD. animals learn to do this as humans do66. What does the study about dogs in the classroom tell us?A. Reading to real dogs could help kids improve behavior.B. Researchers brought dogs there to attract kids’ attention.C. Dogs have poorer social skills than the kids with ADHD.D. Toy dogs work as well as real dogs in accompanying kids.67. What can we learn about the researchers in the passage?A. They still have a long way to go in exploring pets’ effect.B. They don’t doubt the safety of using animals in hospitals.C. Berger helps patients to gain the ability to cure themselves.D. Griffin doesn’t agree that dogs improve children’s reading.68. What might be the best title for the passage?A. Pets’ Various WorkB. The Power of PetsC. Pets as Assistants in SchoolD. Patients’ Call for PetsSection CDirections: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.Club Activities in Japanese SchoolsIn the after-class activities of Japanese high schools, there are various clubs. Participation depends on students; however, most students choose a certain club. 69 And there are various kinds within each type.A recent survey showed activity participation rate (比率). In junior high schools, participation rate was around 70% in sports clubs and around 20% in culture clubs. In senior high schools, participation rate in sports clubs dropped to about 50%, and in culture clubs, rose to around 25%. One reason is that there are more kinds of culture clubs in senior high schools than in junior high schools, so there is a wider range of choices. 70The rate of junior high school students not choosing any club was less than 10%. However, that number more than doubled in senior high school. In recent years, the number of students not joining in any clubs is increasing. Stronger individualism, which causes unwillingness to participate in group activities, is one factor behind this change.71 Japanese clubs are considered “a part of education” and are different from club activities overseas. Learning teamwork is a common factor; in particular, sports clubs have a strict hierarchy (等级制度) and are useful in leaning to be polite. This is said to have influenced the way Japanese companies work, for example, with respect for seniors. Compared to sports clubs, the hierarchy in culture clubs is not as strict. 72 Besides, clubs which practice traditional Japanese martial arts and culture offer a valuable chance to learn the traditional arts firsthand. By experiencing such arts in teenage years, the chance of passing traditional culture to the next generation is large.Ⅳ. Outline WritingDirections: Read the following passage and complete the brief outline that follows. Write no more than 5 words for each blank.Interesting Traditions Around the WorldTraditions are passed down from generation to generation to inform us of our history. Some are widespread and taken on by one and all, like celebrating New Year and birthdays, and then there are some that are quite strange or interesting and practiced only by a small group of people.Famadihana, also called the turning of the bones, is a festival in Madagascar that honors the dead and celebrates family ties. Every seven years or so, families who can afford rich dinners for guests and new clothes for the living families and the dead, celebrate the festival. They give out gifts for the dead and crying is discouraged during the celebration.Bali’s Day of Silence, or Nyepi, as they call it, is a holiday celebrated with eating little or no food as well as meditation, the practice of thinking deeply in silence. The whole island shuts off all sounds, lights, and all other activities, so there is peace all around. Days before the actual celebration, Balinese people make the ogoh-ogoh (dangerous animals) statues (雕像) that will be used and paraded through the streets the day before Nyepi. The statues are then usually burnt after supposedly attracting dangerous animals.Having started in Middle Ages, flag throwing has long been popular in Tuscany. As the Italians love a good celebration, army parades were held with marching bands and flag bearers. Since flags are considered sacred, the flag bearers have to make sure that they do not fall to the ground. Today, flag throwing is not just popular in Tuscany but also in the whole of Italy.Some traditions may sound strange, yet people hold them close to their hearts and still practice the age-old rituals to this day. These rituals are part of their culture and history and are able to shape and describe people.Outline:Ⅰ. IntroductionAs a form of historic culture, some traditions are shared altogether and others are 73 and celebrated by only a few.Ⅱ. Body partPeople in Madagascar celebrate Famadihana to honor the dead and 74 .During Nyepi in Bali, people eat little or no food and 75 ; days before the festival, statues are made and later they will be burnt.Flag throwing features army parades and gains popularity in Italy.Ⅲ. ConclusionPeople still hold fast to some age-old rituals, because these traditions can 76 .Ⅳ.

AA company has just launched(发起)what it calls “the world's first free standardized English test” recently. Anyone can take the test for free. The new exam is called the EFSET, which is short for Education First Standardized English Test. The company, Education First, is known by the letters EF.It is reported that there are two billion English language learners worldwide. Many ofmany foreigners are not rich enough to take the TOEFL. In addition, test-takers often have to travel overnight to reach an official testing site. The World Bank says an average Cambodian worker earns only about $1,000 per year. The cost of taking the TOEFL is about 17.5 percent of the average worker's yearly wage.It is not just individuals who find the test pricey. Some governments also find it too expensive. What's more, not everyone needs official results from the TOEFL or IELTS—the International English Language Testing System. In the future, it's likely that the government may use the EFSET to test millions of employees and students.Experts believe that the EFSET meets the highest value in language testing. It uses special computer software that makes the questions easier or harder, depending on one's performance. The EFSET measures all the English learners' levels while the IELTS and TOEFL only measure learners' levels from intermediate(中等的)to advanced. The EFSET is unique in the sense that it gives free online access to anyone interested in measuring their English level.There is a 50-minute and a two-hour version of the test, which its developers are calling the EFSET Plus. Both versions test only reading and listening skills. It's hopeful that speaking and writing skills will be tested in the future. The IELTS and the TOEFL still use humans to rate the speaking and writing sections. It's a huge deal for students who are in areas where they can't get to the TOEFL or the IELTS. However, it is too early to know whether the EFSET results are acceptable for colleges and universities in America.21.Why do many foreign students take the TOEFL?A . To learn English well.B . To be admitted to key universities.C . To receive further education in America.D . To find good jobs and earn much money.22.What can we infer from Paragraph 2?A .The cost of taking the TOEFL is very high.B . Only rich people can take the TOEFL.C . There are many official testing sites for the TOEFL around the world.D . Few of the students in Cambodia can afford to take the TOEFL.23.What can we learn about the EFSET?A . It is similar to the TOEFL and the IELTS.B . Everybody with different English levels can take it for free.C . It tests the skills of reading, listening, writing and speaking.D . American universities accept the EFSET results for admission.Bheadlines as scientists and environmental groups are worried that they will worsen climate change and threaten biodiversity(生物多样性).As the largest rainforest in the world, the Amazon is often called “the lungs of the world”. It is also home to about 3 million species of plants and animal s, and 1 million local people. The vast lands of rainforest play an important role in the world’s ecosystem because they take in heat instead of it being reflected back into the atmosphere. They also store carbom dioxide (二氧化碳)and produce oxygen, making sure that less carbon is given off, mitigating the effects of climate change. “Any forest destroyed is a threat to biodiversity and the people who use that biodiversity,” Thomas Lovejoy, an ecologist at George Mason University told National Geographic. “The shocking threat is that a lot of carbon goes into the atmosphere,” he stressed. “Facing the global climate change, we cannot afford more damage to a major source of oxygen and biodiversity. The Amazon must be protected,” U.N. Secretary General Antonio Guterres said.Data from the National Institute for Space Research (INPE) show that the number of forest fires in Brazil quickly increased by 82 percent from January to August this year from a year ago. A total of 71,497 forest fires were recorded in the country in the first eight months of 2019, up from 39,194 in the same period in 2018, INPE said. “It’s reported that the forest areas in the Brazilian Amazon have decreased something between 20 and 30 percent compared to the last 12 months,” Carlos Nobre, a researcher at the University of Sao Paulo, told German broadcaster Deutsche Welle.Brazil owns about 60 percent of the Amazon rainforest, whose drop could have severe results for global climate and rainfall. The size of the area ruined by fires has yet to be determined, but the emergency has transcended(超出)Brazil’s borders, reaching Peruvian, Paraguayan and Bolivian areas.24. What is the second paragraph mainly talking about?A. The effects of climate change.B. The role of the Amazon rainforest.C. The results of the Amazon rainforest fires.D. The causes of the decreasing biodiversity.25. Which of the following best explains “mitigating” underlined in Paragraph 2?A. Easing.B. Causing.C. Worsening.D. Benefitting.26. What can we learn from Thomas’s and Antonio’s words?A. The biodiversity makes the rainforests unique.B. The rainforest fires result in serious consequences.C. The global climate crisis brings more rainforest fires.D. The dry weather leads to the rainforest fires.27. Which section of a magazine is this text probably taken from?A. Sports and music.B. Science and technology.C. Nature and geography.D. Business and culture.COn one occasion, while visiting my parents, I happened to meet the little boy who lived next door. It was obvious that his mother had told him not to come over uninvite.He was standing on the very edge of his yard with an anxious look on his face, seemingly about to burst.My father waved him over and performed the introductions. "Eliot, this is my son, Gary. Gary, meet my little friend, Eliot." To my delight, he reached out his small hand and I accepted the formality(遵守礼节) with a smile.Unlike most children, this teenager was not shy of meeting a stranger. As a matter of fact, he turned out to be quite a chatterbox. Eliot had me laughing as I listened to the excitement in his voice..for, as you know, it was a big deal to find a toad (蟾蜍)! His descriptions were priceless as I asked the obvious questions concerning the capture(捕捉). He was pleased that I showed interest in his adventure and gladly explained its details.Since Eliot seemed so willing to invest in our budding friendship, I asked him a question, "Do you like banjo music?" He got very excited and answered me with a hearty "Yes!"I took out my banjo from the car, but when I sat next to him and started playing, Eliot looked at me with a puzzled expression. He asked me "What’s that?" in all seriousness.My dad and I smiled. The boy who just "loved" the banjo didn’t recognize that I was holding one and that what I was playing was "banjo music".I realized that his heart was in the right place. Eliot just wanted to please his new friend with that "Yes", thinking it was what I wanted to hear.Well anyway...Eliot likes the banjo for real now. And I like Eliot.28.When Eliot saw the author, he _______.A. came into the yard to greet the authorB. gladly introduced himself to the authorC. showed no interest in visiting a strangerD. was eager to get to know the author29.From the passage we know Eliot was ________.A. seriousB. shyC. talkativeD. dishonest 30.The underlined sentence in the fourth paragraph suggests_________.A.

Eliot was regretful for not making friends with the author31.Why did Eliot say he loved banjo music?A. Because he hoped that the author was in high spirits.B. Because he believed banjo music was very beautiful.C. Because he was really fond of such strange music.D. Because he hoped the author would teach him the music.DBenjamin Franklin clearly knew how to get things done. After scanning the long list of Benjamin Franklin’s achievements, one can only come to one conclusion that the American man probably never had a wasted day in his life. When he was 84 years old, he became a successful author, printer, politician, postmaster, inventor, musician, and diplomat.There's much we can leam from Benjarin Frankin's work habits and opinions on life that can increase our own productivity. Here are some ways Franklin overcame lazy, wasted days.Start a group and share knowledge. When Franklin was 21, he was a struggling printer in Philadelphia. To increase his connections and to learn more about his industry, he created a group. The group was in great need of books, but books were expensive. Franklin helped start a library where books were bought and lent to members. This sharing of knowledge, experience, and connections helped Franklin become a famous and respected printer in Philadelphia.Attack opportunities. "To succeed," Franklin w rote,” jump as quickly at opportunities as you can." We can all agree, but when an opportunity comes we often look the other way. It's because the opportunity isn't dressed the way we expect. We often think that the opportunity was only in the form of a golden egg or a million-dollar lottery ticket or a new job offer. But more often than not, the opportunity comes in smaller, less beautiful packages.Time is something in short supply. Franklin wrote“Lost time is never found again." This may sound like it came from the pen of a poet, but it's really an inspirational call to action. Franklin worked, created, and lived knowing that time is scarce. He never put off his work.While Franklin was an able inventor we can be sure that his notebook contained a few unsuccessful ideas . Franklin wrote,“ Do not fear mistakes. You will know failure. Continue to reach out.'32. Benjamin Franklin suceeded in many ways mainly because________.A.he was very clever and popularB.he could make good use of his timeC.he often shared knowledge with othersD.he could do many things at the same time33. The underlined word “ industry”in Paragraph 3 probably refers to ________.A.writingB. inventionC.musicD.printing34. For many people who want to succeed ,opportunities_________.A.are easy to catch hold ofB. are difficult to see and attackC. are often dressed the way we expectD.always come in the form of a golden egg35.From the last paragraph we can learn__________A.Franklin wrote a lot of famous poemsB. Franklin sometimes wasted timeC.Franklin never met with failuresD.Franklin learned from failures第二节 七选五(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。
