AWhy don’t quiet carriages work, and how might they be make to? Quiet carriages on trains are a nice idea: travelers voluntarily make their phones silent, turn stereos off and keep chatter to a minimum. However, in reality, there is usually at least one silly babbler(喋喋不休的人) to break the silence.A couple of problems prevent peaceful trips. First, there is a sorting problem: some passengers end up in the quiet carriage by accident and are not aware of the rules. Second, there is a commitment problem: noise is sometimes made by travelers who choose the quiet carriage but find an important call hard to ignore.The train operators are trying to find answers. Trains in Queensland Australia, are having permanent signs added to show exactly what is expected; a British operator has invested in some technology to prevent phone calls.Microeconomics suggests another approach. Fining people for making a noise would surely dissuade(劝阻) the polluter and is a neat solution in theory, but it requires costly monitoring and enforcement. Another way would be to use prices to separate quiet and noisy passengers－in effect, creating a market for silence. A simple idea would be to sell access to the quiet carriage as an optional extra when the ticket is bought. Making the quiet coach both an active choice and a costly one would dissuade many of those who don’t value a peaceful ride.Charging may also solve the commitment problem. This is particularly tricky, as attitudes to noise canchange during the journey. Some passengers would pay the quiet premium but still chatter away when some vital news arrives. Schemes that reward the silent－a rating system among fellow passengers, for example －could help. The idea is that losing your hard-won reputation offsets the short-term gain from using the phone. But such a system also fails the simplicity test.A 2010 book by George Akerlof and Rachel Kranton argues that “norms”－feelings about how everyone should behave－also play a role in decision-making. Charging a price, even if just a token amount, means the quiet carriage becomes a service that fellow passengers have bought, not just a preference they have expressed. Perhaps different norms would come into play, encouraging calm. If not, a personal bubble is always an option: noise-canceling headphones start at around $50.1. According to the passage, what does microeconomics suggest?A. Finding the source of noise.B. Putting a price on noise.C. Avoid using a phone in the carriage.D. Investing more money in monitoring and enforcement.2. By “a personal bubble is always an option,” the author means ________.A. one can make his own choiceB. one sh ould respect others’ privacyC. one can create his own personal spaceD. one should stick to his personal budget3. This passage is mainly about ________.A. people’s favoured transportationB. effective methods of monitoring noise levelsC. possible solutions to noise in train carriagesD. common forms of misbehavior of passengersBThe great-grandmother is learning English with the help of her family when she is at the age of 91. She hopes to use the language at next year’s Olympic Games in Tokyo. Takamiz awa was one of the more than 200, 00 people who requested to volunteer for Tokyo’s 2020 Games. English is not required for service, but it is a useful skill for volunteers to have.But Takamizawa had not been able to learn the language when she was young. Takamizawa said that she was in high school when World War Two started. She said, “In my second year there, English was banned because it was the enemy language.”Takamizawa said her grandchildren helped persuade her that she was not too old to learn. “Whe n I talked to my grandchildren about my wish, they said, ‘It’s not too late. We will teach you one word a day’ ”. Natsuko is Takamizawa’s granddaughter and main English teacher. Natsuko sends a new English word to her grandmother’s phone every day. They al so often work together directly on phrases that Takamizawa will need for the Olympics. “Welcome to Tokyo, this is the Olympic stadium, how can I help you?” Takamizawa answers when asked to say an English phrase she has learned. Natsuko explains that she wa nted to give her grandmother something to enjoy. “I can clearly see her English is getting better. It’s my joy now.”The EF English Proficiency Index is a measure of the level of English spoken in a country. Japan ranks 49th among countries where English is not the first language. This situation is slowly changing as younger generations welcome English. However, Takamizawa believes real change will not happen unless Japanese people become more open to the rest of the world. With around 500 days to go until the games begin, the whole Takamizawa family is ready to welcome the world to Tokyo.4. Why couldn’t Takamizawa learn English when she was young?A. Because English was useless.B. Because she was too young to learn English.C. Because English was forbidden to learn.D. Because she was unwilling to learn English.5. What can we know from the third paragraph?A. Takamizawa gets strong support from her family.B. Takamizawa’s grandchildren love her a lot.C. Natsuko is Takamizawa’s granddaughter and only Engl ish teacher.D. Natsuko teaches Takamizawa English mainly by talking with her.6. What does the underlined phrase “This situation” in Paragraph 4 refer to?A. English is not the first language in Japan.B. The level of English spoken in Japan is relatively low.C. Younger generations in Japan welcome English.D. Japanese people become open to the rest of the world.7. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Where there is a will, there is a way.B. It is never too late to learn.C. The early bird catches the worm.D. Two heads are better than one.CIt is generally acknowledged that young people from poorer socio-economic backgrounds tend to do less well in the education system. In an attempt to help the children of poor families, a nationwide program called “Headstart” was started in the US in 1965. A lot of money was poured into it. It took children into pre-school institutions at the age of three and was supposed to help them succeed in school. But the results have been disappointing , because the program began too late. Many children who entered it at three were already behind their peers in language and intelligence and the parents were not involved in the process. At the end of each day, “Headstart” children returned to the same disadvantaged hom e environment.To improve the results, another program was started in Missouri that concentrated on parents as the child,s first teachers. This program was based on research showing that working with the family is the most effective way of helping children get the best possible start in life. The four-year study included 380 families who were about to have their first child and represented different social-economic status, age and family structure. The program involved trained educators visiting and working with the parent or parents and the child. The program also gave the parents some guidance, and useful skills on child development.At three, the children involved in the “Missouri” program were evaluated with the children selected from the same socio-economic background and family situations. The results were obvious. The children in the program were more advanced in language development, problem solving and other intellectual skills than their peers. They performed equally well regardless of socio-economic backgrounds or family structure. The one factor that was found to affect the child,s development was the poor quality ofparent-child interaction. That interaction was not necessarily bad in poorer families.The “Missouri” program compares quite distinctly with the “Headstart” program. Without a similar focus on parent education and on the vital importance of the first three years, some evidence indicates that it will not be enough to overcome educational unfairness.8. What caused the failure of the “Headstart” program ?A. The large number of poor families.B. The disapproval from children.C. The late start of the program.D. The long period of time.9. What do we know about the “Missouri” program ?A. It focused on the children,s first school teachers.B. It helped the children return to the same home.C. It made the children improved in many aspects.D. It gave the parents advice on their development.10. According to the passage, what is likely to influence children,s performance ?A. The number of family members.B. The parent-child communication.C. The intelligence of their parents.D. The teacher-student relationship.11. How does the author develop the passage ?A. By listing figures.B. By making comparisons.C. By giving examples.D. By drawing conclusions.DWe’ve all been there: those times you need to argue your point of view to someone who you know disagrees with you. You immediately go to your keyboard and start to type out that 280-character tweet, the Facebook reply, or a paragraphs-long email. Surely the reason, logic, and strong power of your written words will convince whoever it is who disagrees with you to see your point of view. But new research suggests a different idea.That research was conducted by Juliana Schroeder, assistant professor of University of California, Berkeley, and her colleagues. In Schroeder’s study of almost 300 people, participants were asked to watch, listen, and read arguments about subjects they agreed or disagreed with. They were asked to judge the character of the communicator and the quality of the argument. Schroeder’s team found that the participants who watched or listened to the communicator were less dismissive (抵触的)of their claims than when they read that communicator’s same argument.The idea for her study came from a newspaper article about a politician. One of us read a speech that was printed in a newspaper from a politician with whom he strongly disagreed. The next week, he heard the exact same speech playing on a radio station. He was shocked by how different his reaction was toward the politician when he read the speech compared to when he heard it. When he read the statement, the politician seemed idiotic, but when he heard it spoken, the politician actually sounded reasonable.So in the workplace, speaking to someone in person often involves nothing more than walking a few doors down to their office. And that’s exactly what you should do if you need to con vince that boss or colleague of why your blueprint for the company or project is the right one.Only as a last way should you try to communicate with someone who you disagree with over social media. Twitter’s limited text allowance and social media users’ short attention make arguing your point anuphill battle.12. What’s the result of the research?A. Written words are more logical and reasonable.B. People prefer to communicate with key board.C. When reading an argument, the participants were less dismissive than hearing it.D. Oral, not written, communication works better.13. Why is the politician mentioned in paragraph3?A. To introduce the topic for discussion.B. To summarize the previous paragraphs.C. To explain why Schroeder conducted the research.D. To introduce the politician’s speech.14. What does the underlined word “idiotic’’in paragraph 3 mean?A. Wise.B. Practical.C. Silly.D. Special.15. What can we infer from the last two paragraphs?A. To persuade your boss, you need to walk to his office and leave a message.B. It’s difficult to fully explain your points due to social media’s limitation.C. Arguing over social media is more convenient than speaking in person.D. Communicating with others over social media is encouraged.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。

English is not the first language in Japan.B. The level of English spoken in Japan is relatively low.C. Younger generations in Japan welcome English.D. Japanese people become open to the rest of the world.7. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Where there is a will, there is a way.B. It is never too late to learn.C. The early bird catches the worm.D. Two heads are better than one.CIt is generally acknowledged that young people from poorer socio-economic backgrounds tend to doless well in the education system. In an attempt to help the children of poor families, a nationwide programcalled “Headstart” was started in the US in 1965. A lot of money was poured into it. It took children intopre-school institutions at the age of three and was supposed to help them succeed in school. But the resultshave been disappointing , because the program began too late. Many children who entered it at three werealready behind their peers in language and intelligence and the parents were not involved in the process. Atthe end of each day, “Headstart” children returned to the same disadvantaged home environment.To improve the results, another program was started in Missouri that concentrated on parents as thechild,s first teachers. This program was based on research showing that working with the family is the mosteffective way of helping children get the best possible start in life. The four-year study included 380families who were about to have their first child and represented different social-economic status, age andfamily structure. The program involved trained educators visiting and working with the parent or parentsand the child. The program also gave the parents some guidance, and useful skills on child development.At three, the children involved in the “Missouri” program were evaluated with the children selected from the same socio-economic background and family situations. The results were obvious. The children inthe program were more advanced in language development, problem solving and other intellectual skillsthan their peers. They performed equally well regardless of socio-economic backgrounds or familystructure. The one factor that was found to affect the child,s development was the poor quality ofparent-child interaction. That interaction was not necessarily bad in poorer families.The “Missouri” program compares quite distinctly with the “Headstart” program. Without a sim focus on parent education and on the vital importance of the first three years, some evidence indicates thatit will not be enough to overcome educational unfairness.8. What caused the failure of the “Headstart” program ?A. The large number of poor families.B. The disapproval from children.C. The late start of the program.D. The long period of time.9. What do we know about the “Missouri” program ?A. It focused on the children,s first school teachers.B. It helped the children return to the same home.C. It made the children improved in many aspects.D. It gave the parents advice on their development.10. According to the passage, what is likely to influence children,s performance ?A. The number of family members.B. The parent-child communication.C. The intelligence of their parents.D. The teacher-student relationship.11. How does the author develop the passage ?A. By listing figures.B. By making comparisons.C. By giving examples.D. By drawing conclusions.DWe’ve all been there: those times you need to argue your point of view to someone who you knowdisagrees with you. You immediately go to your keyboard and start to type out that 280-character tweet, theFacebook reply, or a paragraphs-long email. Surely the reason, logic, and strong power of your writtenwords will convince whoever it is who disagrees with you to see your point of view. But new researchsuggests a different idea.That research was conducted by Juliana Schroeder, assistant professor of University of California,Berkeley, and her colleagues. In Schroeder’s study of almost 300 people, participants were asked to watch,listen, and read arguments about subjects they agreed or disagreed with. They were asked to judge thecharacter of the communicator and the quality of the argument. Schroeder’s team found that the part who watched or listened to the communicator were less dismissive (抵触的)of their claims than when theyread that communicator’s same argument.The idea for her study came from a newspaper article about a politician. One of us read a speech thatwas printed in a newspaper from a politician with whom he strongly disagreed. The next week, he heard theexact same speech playing on a radio station. He was shocked by how different his reaction was toward thepolitician when he read the speech compared to when he heard it. When he read the statement, thepolitician seemed idiotic, but when he heard it spoken, the politician actually sounded reasonable.So in the workplace, speaking to someone in person often involves nothing more than walking a fewvince that boss ordoors down to their office. And that’s exactly what you should do if you need to concolleague of why your blueprint for the company or project is the right one.Only as a last way should you try to communicate with someone who you disagree with over socialshort attention make arguing your point anmedia. Twitter’s limited text allowance and social media users’　uphill battle.12. What’s the result of the research?A. Written words are more logical and reasonable.B. People prefer to communicate with key board.C. When reading an argument, the participants were less dismissive than hearing it.D. Oral, not written, communication works better.13. Why is the politician mentioned in paragraph3?A. To introduce the topic for discussion.B. To summarize the previous paragraphs.C. To explain why Schroeder conducted the research.D. To introduce the politician’s speech.14. What does the underlined word “idiotic’’in paragraph 3 mean?A. Wise.B. Practical.C. Silly.D. Special.15. What can we infer from the last two paragraphs?A. To persuade your boss, you need to walk to his office and leave a message.B. It’s difficult to fully explain your points due to social media’s limitation.C. Arguing over social media is more convenient than speaking in person.D. Communicating with others over social media is encouraged.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。

You can easily pick up and drop off your child thanks to the many parking spaces close to the entrance.Our servicesBig Ben Kids provides day care, preschool care and after-school care. Our activity programme includes language lessons, violin lessons, guitar lessons and much more. Activities are held indoors, but can also be external, such as swimming in the river, and field trips to the woods. Children learn dancing, making music, and the native language ——Dutch! They learn through play. Our curriculum is carefully designed in such a way that the children don’t eve n notice how much they learn each day. For them，it’s all about playing and having fun!What does Big Ben Kids offer your family?•Homelike environmentA warm and stimulating(趣味盎然的）atmosphere that allows children to grow and develop safely.• A truly international placeOur staff members come from all over the world, just like the families we serve. We are therefore acutely aware that our centers should be much more than places that simply care for children. We always go the extra mile to help families and try to bring everyone together to form a friendly international community.• Healthy mealsAt Big Ben Kids, we serve two warm, healthy, homemade meals each day. The snacks are nutritious as well, with lots of fruit and vegetables. Parents receive our menu every week in advance.1. Where does the center probably lie?A. Germany.B. France.C. Holland.D. Sweden.2. Who is the center mainly intended for?A. Foreign children.B. Preschool children.C. Native children.D. Athletic children.3. What are parents aware of about their children ahead of time?A. What activities their children join.B. What meals their children are served.C. How their children perform in class.D. Whether their children finish homework.BNorway shares a long eastern border with Sweden and is bordered by Finland and Russiato the north-east, and the Skagerrak Strait to ihe south 一Denmark on the other side of the strait. It has ail extensive coastline, facing the North Atlantic Ocean and the Barents Sea.For the last few years, Norway has registered the highest quality 6f life among the worlds nations. It is one of the wealthiest countries in the world. Norwegians can also expect to get a good education, the job they wan! — unemployment is only 4 percent according to recent data updated in January,2019 — enjoy good health and live a long life. Its achievement today is completely unexpected for many people, especially senior citizens there. Just 80 years ago Norwegians were moving to the USA in their thousands in search of a better life. The rise in oil prices in the 1970s changed all that. On a per-capita(人均的) basis, Norway is the world’s largest producer of oil outside of the Middle East.When you arrive in Oslo, the capital of Norway, for the first don't expect to be met byDubai-style skyscrapers, and rows of Ferraris and Porsches. In 2018, Norway became one of the few countries where over 5 in every 100 passenger cars on the roads is a plug-in electric one. Norwegians also work hard and are always near the top in research on global worker productivity rates. Bui in today’s high-tech world where work seems to follow us wherever we go, the people of Norway are redefining(重新定义)what wealth means. Laws just recently passed by the government attach great importance to family and time off.Also, the country is saving for the future. Every dollar earned from oil is put straight into its pensions ——worth billions of dollars. At a time when most other western countries are wondering how they will finance the pensions of a growing retired population, Norway is sitting pretty.1.Where is the Skagerrak strait?A.Near the Barents Sea.B.On the east of Finland.C.Near the north of Norway.D.On the north of Denmark.2.What leads to Norway’s succe ss?A.Its huge reserve of oil.B.Its low unemployment rate.C.Its quality education.D.Its pleasant natural environment.3.What can be inferred about Norway from paragraph 3?A.Norwegians are seeking modern life.B.It is modest about its wealth.C.It puts much focus on the traffic.D.Norwegians try to keep away from high technology.4.What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph convey?A.Norway’s future should be considered.B.Norway wouldn’t like to make changes.C.Norway has accumulated enough pensions.D.Norway's retired population is decreasing.CThere are only a few truly pleasant smells to wake to in the morning. For me, it's the smell of freshly brewed coffee. Just a sniff of it makes me jump out of bed and rush to the kitchen for a gulp of the hot black liquid.If you're a big fan of coffee, you'll understand that opening a new packet of coffee releases an amazing smell-fresh, roasted coffee beans. And you'll be able to identify the beans' origin-Colombia, Vietnam or Brazil. Tim Hayward is a food writer and coffee shop owner; he believes the smell is absolutely vital. "When you walk into the coffee shop in the morning and that smell hits you, you're getting physiological responses."I know from experience when I walk into a cafe, my mouth begins to water and it's the smell that makes me feel good. However, this feeling sometimes turns to disappointment. This is particularly the case when I order a coffee to go in a tall paper cup and sip the liquid through a hole in the lid. Yes, it's convenient, but is it really the right way to appreciate it?You walk into the coffee shop, you get the smell, but when you actually take the drink out, you are drinking it from something that is designed to deliver the hot liquid directly past yourtongue, but prevent any smell coming up to your nose. As well as eliminating the smell, takeaway coffee cups create a lot of waste and the vast majority of them still don't get recycled. So maybe now is the time to really wake up and smell the coffee by drinking from a cup in a cafe, chatting with friends and saving the planet!1.In which aspect does the author agree with Tim Hayward?A.People drink coffee first thing in the morning.B.Coffee beans' origin makes all the difference.C.Some people are addicted to drinking coffee.D.It's the smell of coffee that really matters.2.What does the author complain about?A.The process of making coffee.B.The high temperature of coffee.C.The design of the paper coffee cup.D.The inconvenience of buying coffee.3.Which can replace the word "eliminating" underlined in Paragraph 4?A.Creating.B.Removing.C.Increasing.D.Changing.4.What can be the best title of the text?A.Wake up and smell the coffeeB.Try to be a real lover of coffeeC.Drink coffee to save the planetD.Choose takeaway coffee for convenienceDOn average, Americans spend about 10 hours a day in front of a computer or other electronic devices(设备) and less than 30 minutes a day outdoors. That is a claim made by David Strayer, a professor of psychology at the University of Utah. In his 2017 TED Talk, Strayer explained that all this time spent with technology is making our brains tired.Using an electronic device to answer emails, listen to the news and look at social media puts a lot of pressure on the front of the brain, which, Strayer explains, is important for critical(有判断力的) thinking, problem-solving and decision-making.So, it is important to give the brain a rest. And being in nature, Strayer claims, helps get a tired brain away from too much technology. More than 15, 000 campers from around the world attended an international camping festival in September. That is when friends and family take time off and escape to nature for several days. They take walks, climb, explore, swim, sleep, eat and play. Camping may be just what a tired brain needs.Take Carl for example. He lives in West Virginia and enjoys camping. He says that staying outdoors makes him feel at ease. It also prepares him for the work he must do. Kate Somers is another example who also lives in West Virginia. She says she enjoys camping with her husband arid two children. She calls it a "regenerative” experience.At the University of Utah, David Strayer has studied both shortterm and long-term exposure to nature. He found that spending short amounts of time in nature without technology does calm the brain and helps it to remember better. However, he found, it is the long-term contact with nature that does the most good. He and his research team found that spending three clays in nature without any technology is enough time for the brain to fully relax and reset itself.1.What is David Strayer's opinion?A.Americans dislike outdoor activities.B.Electronic equipment should be quitted.C.New technologies are a double-edged sword.D.Electronic equipment brings great convenience.2.Why does Strayer insist we go outdoors?A.To try another lifestyle.B.To refresh our brain.C.To make better decisions.D.To play with our family and friends.3.What does the underlined word "regenerative" mean?A.Reborn.B.Memorable.C.Remarkable.D.Tiring.4.Which is the proper title for the passage?A.Electronic Equipment Harms theB. Good Rest Develops Good MemoryC.Tips on Using New TechnologiesD.Being in Nature Is Good for the Brain二、七选五阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

AIn 1812, the year Charles Dickens was born, there were 66 novels published in Britain. People had been writing novels for a century—most experts date the first novel to Robinson Crusoe in 1719—but nobody wanted to do it professionally. The steam-powered printing press was still in its early stages; the literacy（识字）rate in England was under 50%. Many works of fiction appeared without the names of the authors, often with something like “By a lady.”Novels, for the most part, were looked upon as silly, immoral, or just plain bad.In 1870, when Dickens died, the world mourned him as its first professional writer and publisher, famous and beloved, who had led an explosion in both the publication of novels and their readership and whose characters — from Oliver Twist to Tiny Tim—were held up as moral touchstones. Today Dickens’ greatness is unchallenged. Removing him from the pantheon（名人堂）of English literature would make about as much sense as the Louvre selling off the Mona Lisa.How did Dickens get to the top? For all the feelings readers attach to stories, literature is a numbers game, and the test of time is extremely difficult to pass. Some 60,000 novels were published during the Victorian age, from 1837 to1901; today a casual reader might be able to name a half-dozen of them. It’s partly true that Dickens’ style of writing attracted audiencesfrom all walks of life. It’s partly that his writings rode a wave of social, political and scientific progress. But it’s also that he rewrote the culture of literature and put himself at the center. No one will ever know what mix of talent, ambition, energy and luck made Dickens such a singular writer. But as the 200th anniversary of his birth approaches, it is possible — and important for our own culture—to understand how he made himself a lasting one.1．Which of the following best describes British novels in the 18th century?A．They were difficult to understand.B．They were popular among the rich.C．They were seen as nearly worthless.D．They were written mostly by women.2．Dickens is compared with the Mona Lisa in the text to stress________.A．his reputation in FranceB．his interest in modern artC．his success in publicationD．his importance in literature3．What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?A．To remember a great writer.B．To introduce an English novel.C．To encourage studies on culture.D．To promote values of the Victorian age.BEl Nifio, a Spanish term for “the Christ child”, was named by South American fisherman who noticed that the global weather pattern, which happens every two to seven years, reduced the amount of fishes caught around Christmas. El Nifio sees warm water, collected over several years in the western Pacific, flow back eastwards when winds that normally blow westwards weaken, or sometimes the other way round.The weather effects both good and bad, are felt in many places. Rich countries gain more from powerful Nifio, on balance, than they lose. A study found that a strong Nifio in 1997 helped American’s economy grow by 15 billion, partly because of better agricultural harvest, farmers in the Midwest gained from extra rain. The total rise in agricultural in rich countries in growth than the fall in poor ones.But in Indonesia extremely dry forests are in flames. A multi-year drought (干旱）in south-east Brazil is becoming worse. Though heavy rains brought about by El Nino may relieve the drought in California, they are likely to cause surface flooding and other disasters.The most recent powerful Nino, in 1997-98, killed around 21,000 people and caused damage worth $36 billion around the globe. But such Ninos come with months of warning, and so much is known about how they happen that governments can prepare. According to the Overseas Development Institute (ODI), however, just 12% of disaster-relief funding in the past two decades has gone on reducing risks in advance, rather than recovery and rebuilding afterwards. This is despite evidence that a dollar spent on risk-reduction saves at least two on reconstruction.Simple improvements to infrastructure (基础设施）can reduce the spread of disease. Better sewers (下水道）make it less likely that heavy rain is followed by an outbreak of the disease of bad stomach. Stronger bridges mean villages are less likely to be left without food and medicine after floods. According to a paper in 2011 by Mr Hsiang and co-authors, civil conflict is related to El Nino’s harmful effects—and the poorer the country, the stronger the link. Though the relationship may not be causal, helping divided communities to prepare for disasters would at least reduce the risk that those disasters are followed by killing and wounding people. Since the poorest are least likely to make up for their losses from disasters linked to El Nino, reducing their losses needs to be the priority.4．What can we learn about El Nino in Paragraph 1?A．It is named after a South American fisherman.B．It takes place almost every year all over the world.C．It forces fishermen to stop catching fish around Christmas.D．It sees the changes of water flow direction in the ocean.5．What may El Ninos bring about to the countries affected?A．Agricultural harvests in rich countries fall.B．Droughts become more harmful than floods.C．Rich countries’ gains are greater than their losses.D．Poor countries suffer less from droughts economically.6．The data provided by ODI in Paragraph 4 suggest that_________.A．more investment should go to risk reductionB．governments of poor countries need more aidC．victims of El Nino deserve more compensationD．recovery and reconstruction should come first7．What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?A．To introduce El Nino and its origin.B．To explain the consequences of El Nino.C．To show ways of fighting against El Nino.D．To urge people to prepare for El Nino.CFor Western designers, China and its rich culture have long been an inspiration for Western creative.“It’s no secret that China has always been a source(来源) of inspiration for designers,” says Amanda Hill, chief creative officer at A+E Networks, a global media company and home to some of the biggest fashion(时尚) shows.Earlier this year, the China Through A Looking Glass exhibition in New York exhibited 140 pieces of China-inspired fashionable clothing alongside Chinese works of art, with the aim of exploring the influence of Chinese aesthetics(美学) on Western fashion and how China has fueled the fashionable imagination for centuries. The exhibition had record attendance, showing that there is huge interest in Chinese influences.“China is impossible to overlook,” says Hill. “Chinese models are the faces of beauty and fashion campaigns that sell dreams to women all over the world, which means Chinese women are not just consumers of fashion —they are central to its movement.” Of course, not only are today’s top Western designers being influenced by China—some of the best designers of contemporary fashion are themselves Chinese. “Vera Wang, Alexander Wang, Jason Wu are taking on Galliano, Albaz, Marc Jacobs—and beating them hands down in design and sales,” adds Hill.For Hill, it is impossible not to talk about China as the leading player when discussing fashion. “The most famous designers are Chinese, so are the models, and so are the consumers,” she says. “China is no longer just another market; in many senses it has become the market. If you talk about fashion today, you are talking about China—its influences, its direction, its breathtaking clothes, and how young designers and models are finally acknowledging that in many ways.”8．What can we learn about the exhibition in New York?A．It promoted the sales of artworks. B．It attracted a large number of visitors.C．It showed ancient Chinese clothes. D．It aimed to introduce Chinese models.9．What does Hill say about Chinese women?A．They are setting the fashion. B．They start many fashion campaigns.C．They admire super models. D．They do business all over the world.10．What do the underlined words “taking on” in paragraph 4 mean?A．learning from B．looking down on C．working with D．competing against 11．What can be a suitable title for the text?A．Young Models Selling Dreams to the WorldB．A Chinese Art Exhibition Held in New YorkC．Differences Between Eastern and Western AestheticsD．Chinese Culture Fueling International Fashion TrendsDCalifornia has lost half its big trees since the 1930s, according to a study to be published Tuesday and climate change seems to be a major factor(因素).The number of trees larger than two feet across has declined by 50 percent on more than 46, 000 square miles of California forests, the new study finds. No area was spared or unaffected, from the foggy northern coast to the Sierra Nevada Mountains to the San Gabriels above Los Angeles. In the Sierra high country, the number of big trees has fallen by more than 55 percent; in parts of southern California the decline was nearly 75 percent.Many factors contributed to the decline, said Patrick McIntyre, an ecologist who was the lead author of the study. Woodcutters targeted big trees. Housing development pushed into the woods. Aggressive wildfire control has left California forests crowded with small trees that compete with big trees for resources(资源).But in comparing a study of California forests done in the 1920s and 1930s with another one between 2001 and 2010, McIntyre and his colleagues documented a widespread death of big trees that was evident even in wildlands protected from woodcutting or development.The loss of big trees was greatest in areas where trees had suffered the greatest water shortage. The researchers figured out water stress with a computer model that calculated how much water trees were getting in comparison with how much they needed, taking into account such things as rainfall, air temperature, dampness of soil, and the timing of snowmelt(融雪).Since the 1930s, McIntyre said, the biggest factors driving up water stress in the state have been rising temperatures, which cause trees to lose more water to the air, and earlier snowmelt, which reduces the water supply available to trees during the dry season.12．What is the second paragraph mainly about?A．The seriousness of big-tree loss in California.B．The increasing variety of California big trees.C．The distribution of big trees in California forests.D．The influence of farming on big trees in California.13．Which of the following is well-intentioned but may be bad for big trees?A．Ecological studies of forests.B．Banning woodcutting.C．Limiting housing development.D．Fire control measures.14．What is a major cause of the water shortage according to McIntyre?A．Inadequate snowmelt. B．A longer dry season.C．A warmer climate. D．Dampness of the air.15．What can be a suitable title for the text?A．California’s Forests: Where Have All the Big Trees Gone?B．Cutting of Big Trees to Be Prohibited in California SoonC．Why Are the Big Trees Important to California Forests?D．Patrick McIntyre: Grow More Big Trees in California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。

While other kids ate candy for breakfast, I had to have cereal, eggs and toast. Others had cokes and candy for lunch, while we had to eat a sandwich. As you can guess, my supper was different than the other kids’. But at lea st I was not alone in my suffering. My sister and two brothers had the same mean mother as I did.My mother insisted on knowing where we were at all times. She had to know who our friends were and what we were doing. We had to wear clean clothes every day. Other kids always wore their clothes for days. We reached the height of disgrace because she made our clothes herself, just to save money.The worst is yet to come. We had to be in bed by 9:00 each night and up at 7:45 the next morning. So while my friends slept, my mother actually had the courage to break Child Labor Law. She made us work. I believed she lay awake all night thinking up mean things to do to us. Through the years, our friends’ report cards had beautiful colors on them,black for passing, red for failing. My mother, however, would merely be content with black marks. None of us was allowed the pleasure of being a dropout.She forced us to grow up into educated and honest adults. Using this as a backgroun d, I’m now trying to bring up my three children. I’m filled with pride when my children think I am mean because now I thank God every day for giving me the meanest mother in the world.26. From the passage we can learn that the writ er’s mother was __________.A. not generous at allB. very strict with her childrenC. very mean with money mattersD. very cruel to her children27. Which of the following things did the writer hate to do most? wA. Eating differently from other kids.B. Wearing clean clothes made by motherC. Going to bed early and getting up earlyD. Letting mother know where they were28. It can be inferred from the passage that____________.A. the writer worked hard and usually got good grades in studiesB. mother was punished for breaking the Labor LawC. all the other kids studied better than the writerD. the writer’s family lived a miserable life29. Which of the following statements is Not true according to the passage ?A. Mother practised economy in running her homeB. The writer is very thankful for her motherC.

The passage was written in a way of _________ tone.A. humorousB. hatefulC. ridiculousD. criticalBAs is reported, 113,000,000 Americans have at least one bank-issued credit card. They use credit cards in stores, restaurants, and hotels, at home, across the country, and even abroad. More and more of these credit cards can be read automatically, making it possible to withdraw or deposit money in different places, whether or not the local branch bank is open. For many of us the "cashless society" is not on the horizon----it's already here.While computers offer these conveniences to consumers, they have many advantages for sellers too. Electronic cashregisters(记录器) can do much more than simply ring up sales. They can keep a wide range of records, including who sold what, when, and to whom. This information allows businessmen to keep track of their list of goods by showing which items are being sold and how fast they are moving. Decisions to reorder or return goods to suppliers can then be made. At the same time these computers record which hours are busiest and which employees are the most efficient, allowing personnel and staffing assignments to be made accordingly. And they also identify preferred customer for promotional campaigns. Computers are relied on by manufacturers for similar re asons. Computer analyzed marketing reports can help to decide which products to emphasize now, which to develop for the future and which to drop. Computers keep track of goods in stock, of raw materials on hand, and even of the production process itself.Many other companies, from theaters to magazine publishers, from gas station to milk processors, bring better and more efficient services to consumers through the use of computers.31. According to the passage, the credit card makes its ownerto _______________ .A. withdraw as much money from the bank as he wishesB. obtain more convenient services than other people doC. enjoy greater trust from the storekeeperD. cash money where he wishes to32. From the last sentence of the first paragraph we learn that ______________.A. in the future all the Americans will use credit cardsB. nowadays many Americans do not pay in cashC. it is now more convenient to use credit cards than beforeD. credit cards are mainly used in the United States today33. The phrase “ring up sales” most probably means _______________.B. computer industry will not develop fasterC. computers will bring about more convenience to people’s lifeD. computers can only used in banksCDesigned specifically for kids that live online, Discovery announced a new fun and interactive homework tool that uses the power of broadband and media to help achieve academic breakthroughs at home. It’s COSMEO.With a click of a mouse, kids have instant access to the only online video destination for homework help, report research and learning games.

faces in China．D．How the author overcomes difficulties in learning Chinese．CMorgan Holmes had taken part in Boy Scouts of America activities for a few years，but she only became a full member recently．This was because the Boy Scouts began accepting girls from fifth grade to 12th grade into a new program called Scouts BSA．It brings girls the opportunities boys have，including becoming Eagle Scouts，the highest rank of the Boy Scouts．“I'm loving it，”Morgan，now 17，said．“I finally get to wear the uniform now．”Six middle school girls have joined Morgan in Troop48 in Scouts BSA．Some were members of Girls Scouts，and some have brothers in the Boy Scouts．Now brothers and sisters can take part in activities．Morgan knows Boy Scouts activities well．Starting when she was 14，Morgan went on high-adventure outings like hiking 1 00 miles and shooting guns．But she’d never been able to progress to become an Eagle Scout．Now Morgan’s goal is to reach the top rank of Eagle Scout．She regularly runs a mile to build up her body．Now，she’s planning on camping in the snow．“The journey to get there is really exciting，”she said．Since Boy Scout activities are led by the Scouts themselves，Morgan，as the oldest girl，will be organizing activities and teaching the girls to tie knots and other skills．One of those girls in Troop48 is Nicolette U1rich，who is also in the Girl Scouts．Her mother，Sasha Ulrich，said she sees，the Boy Scouts as more leadership oriented and the Girl Scouts as more culturally oriented．This will be shown by all upcoming gathering where girls will learn about different food and cultures from around the world．“Girl Scouts is a great group and she’11 continue to do that．”Sasha said．“But she also wanted the opportunities provided by the Boy Scouts．”9．What did Morgan want to do after becoming a full member of Boy Scouts?A．She wanted to join in the activities with her brother．B．She wanted to challenge herself to become，all Eagle Scout．C．She wanted to compete with boys in all activities.D．She wanted to hike long distances and shoot guns with boys．10．What is the best word to describe Morgan?A．Communicative B．Helpful C．Creative D．Adventurous 11．What does Sasha Ulrich think of Boy Scouts?A．It is more culturally oriented．B．It helps to build teamwork．C．It helps to improve leadership．D．It is more interesting than Girl Scouts．DOne step too farScientists have been trying to figure out how to alter the genes of humans for many years now，and it looks like they’ve finally cracked(破解)the code．But while this may seem like a great step forward in science，some also believe that it’s one step back when it comes to ethics．In August，a group of scientists from the US and South Korea worked together to successfully edit a human embryo and remove a genetic mutation(突变)that would have led to heart disease，reported The Guardian．This was achieved with the help of CRISPR，a gene-editing tool that allows scientists to“cut and paste”human DNA．Although this was the first example of an embryo’s genes being changed successfully，the benefits of gene editing have already been tested in living patients．In 2015，a five-month-old girl from the UK was saved after doctors used edited cells to fight off her cancer．As of today，she’s alive and well．And in the US last year，scientists managed to remove HIV cells from several patients by editing the genes inside their bodies．Some people hope that in the future，diseases or birth detects could simply be “edited out”．However，others believe this could lead to so-called designer babies，giving parents the option to choose everything from eye color to intelligence．“You could find wealthy parents buying the latest‘upgrades’for their children，leading to even greater inequality than we already live with，”Marcy Darnovsky，director of the SanFrancisco Center for Genetics，told BBC News．In spite of these ethical concerns，experts say it’s not possible to create the“perfect”human being．Despite the progress scientists have made，We don’t understand human genes enough to give all unborn child great brainpower or amazing singing abilities．“Right now，we know nothing about genetic enhancement，”Hank Greely，a director of sciences at Stanford University，US，told The New York Times．“We’re never going to be able to say，honestly，‘This embryo looks like it would score high on the two-part SAT．’”So it looks like if we want good exam results，or to impress people with our piano skills，we’11 have to stick with the old fashioned method of plain hard work—at least for now．12．The underlined word“alter”in Paragraph 1 probably means________．A．record B．change C．remove D．increase13．Why do some people consider human gene editing a step backwards?A．They don’t think it is an effective way to light diseases．B．They are concerned that it could lead to genetic mutations．C．They think it could lead to designer babies and increased inequality．D．They worry that it could make parents abandon children with birth defects．14．What was the first successful example of human embryo gene editing?A．A genetic mutation related to heart disease was removed by scientistsB．A newborn baby with cancer was saved by edited cells．C．HIV cells were removed from patients’bodies．D．Some birth defects were simply edited out．15．What can we conclude from the text?A．Gene editing is regarded as the perfect way to treat birth defects．B．There is still a long way to go to fully understand human genes．C．Gene editing could help enhance human intelligence in the near future．D．Scientists are pessimistic about the future of gene editing．第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

BIn the trailer (拖车式房屋)，Sischo was refreshing the snails ‘(锅牛）accommodations--an ongoing routine that takes days of careful work. He had found a dozen of Achatinella bulimoides--a third of the world's population of the species. Once every individual was accounted for, he cleaned the cage and packed in new leaves. The work took much trouble, but the responsibility, he said, was like “a heavy weight sitting on you.”The trailer is very vulnerable. It’s designed to keep away would-be thieved, and to resist hurricanes. But a fire could easily destroy it, or a disease could sweep through it. Last September , a mystery pathogon（病原体）appeared to have entered the trailer on leaves fed to the snails, killing almost an entire species. As sad as the event was, there’s no good way to insure against future catastrophe. The snails can’t simply be spread among zoos or other facilities: they need special equipment, experienced handlers, and a diet of native Hawaiian plants.Consequently, it can be hard for the snails' minders to relax, even when they are outside the trailer. “How do you switch off when your decisions mean existence or extinction?" Sischo said. While action lightens the burden, yet with animals whose natural history is largely unknown, that action can be dangerous. "If you do it wrong, the snails die.”Snails are neither intelligent nor beloved. Sischo's friends sometimes tease him about being "the strange snail guy' ; strangers ask why he cares. It's hard to convince people, but he insists that if he can just get them in the trailer, they will understand why the Achatinella bulimoides are worth saving. "People melt," he said“When you show them that the entire population is in this chamber, it hits them."4. What is the trailer used for?A. Accommodating guestsB. Sheltering snailsC. Planting vegetables.D. Alarming thieves.5. What does the underlined word “vulnerable" mean in paragraph?A. Quite.B. Safe.C. Easily affected.D. Well protected.6. What is the snail minders' attitude towards their job?A. Relaxed.B. Confident.C. CautiousD. Disapproving7. Which of the following could be the best title for the text?A. The Last of Its KindB.
