According to a review of evidence in a medical journal, runners live three years 1 (long) than non-runners. You don’t have to run fast or for long 2 (see) the benefit. You may drink, smoke, be overweight and still reduce your risk of 3 (die) early by running.While running regularly can’t make you live forever, the review says it 4 (be) more effective at lengthening life 5 walking, cycling or swimming. Two of the authors of the review also made a study published in 2014 6 showed a mere five to 10 minutes a day of running reduced the risk of heart disease and early deaths from all 7 (cause).The best exercise is one that you e njoy and will do. But otherwise … it’s probably running. To avoid knee pain, you can run on soft surfaces, do exercises to 8 (strength) your leg muscles (肌肉), avoid hills and get good running shoes. Running is cheap, easy and it’s always 9 (energy). If you are time poor, you need run for only half the time to get the same benefits as other sports, so perhaps we should all give 10a try.1.____________2.____________3.____________4.____________5.____________6.____________7.____________8.____________9.____________ 10.____________二.（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分）(2018全国II卷)阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（1个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。

高三英语限时训练一、阅读理解ARainforests are disappearing at a surprisingly fast speed, largely due to human development over the past few centuries. Once covering 14% of land on Earth, rainforests now make up only 6%. Since 1947, the total area of rainforests has probably been reduced by more than half, to about 6.2 to 7.8 million square kilometers.Many biologists expect rainforests will lose 5-10% of their species every ten years. Rapid deforestation could cause many important rainforest habitats to disappear completely in the next hundred years.Such rapid habitat loss is due to the fact that 100 acres of rainforest are cleared every minute for agricultural and industrial development. In the Pacific Northwest’s rainforests, logging companies cut down trees for wood used in building while paper industries use the wood for pulp. In the Amazon rainforest, large agricultural industries clear large parts of forests for growing crops. In the Congo rainforest, roads and other infrastructure (基础建设) development have reduced habitat and cut off living areas for many rainforest species. Throughout both the Amazon and Congo, logging operations clear-cut to build roads or for other purposes. Some rainforests are threatened by large hydroelectric power projects. Development is encroaching on rainforest habitats from all sides.Economic inequalities increase this rapid deforestation. Many rainforests are located in developing countries with economies based on natural resources. Wealthy nations drive need for products, and economic development increases energy use. These needs encourage local governments to develop rainforest at a slow speed. Poor people who live on or near these lands are also motivated to improve their lives by changing forests into farmland.1. What feeling does the author want to convey by listing figures?A．Frustrated. B．Disgusted. C．Inspired. D．Concerned.2. What caused the reduction of habitat for many rainforest species in Congo? A．The demand for numerous products.B．The motivation from local governments.C．The construction of fundamental facilities.D．The cooperation with developing countries.3. What does the underlined part “encroaching on” in paragraph 3 mean?A．Tearing up. B．Relying on. C．Holding back. D．Benefiting from.4.

Then a deer came into view about 200 yards in front of them. “Dad, there’s a deer there!” Alexis said.As the car moved closer, Alexis heard a scream and saw an arm fly up near the deer’s head. Alexis reali zed the deer was attacking a woman. Sue, a 44-year-old mother, had been out for her morning run. The deer followed her and edged closer. “I knew I was in trouble,” Sue says. She went to pick up a stick for self-defense, and the deer charged. It lifted her with its antlers (鹿角) and threw her into the air. Sue could feel blood flowing down her leg.When Alexis and her father pulled up, the deer was throwing Sue like a doll. Alexis looked into the woman’s terrified eyes, and before her father had even stopped the car, the teenager jumped quickly out of the car and ran toward the deer. “I was kicking it to get its attention,” she says. Then her father, who had followed his daughter, tried to push the deer away from the women.Alexis helped Sue into the car, and then applied a piece of cloth to Sue’s injured leg. “We’re going to get you to a hospital,” Alexis said. Then she heard her father shout loudly. He had been knocked to the ground. Alexis took hold of a hammer from the car and ran to where her father lay on his back. She beat the deer’s head and neck, but the blows didn’t scare it away. “I was losing faith,” she says. “A couple more strikes, Alexis,” said her father. “You can do it.” Turning the hammer around, Alexis closed her eyes and beat the deer’s neck with all her strength. When she opened her eyes, the deer was running away. Alexis got in the driver’s seat and sped toward the nearest hospital.5. What was Sue doing when she was attacked by the deer?A．She was going to school. B．She was taking exercise.C．She was resting by the road. D．She was watering plants.6.

D．Strong.CThis new packaging material looks like conventional plastic, but it’s actually made from fish waste and algae(海藻)—unlike plastic, if it escapes into the ocean, a fish could eat it safely. The material, called MarinaTex, is the winner of this year’s James Dyson Award.“It began with my desire to work with waste,” says Lu cy Hughes, a recent graduate from University of Sussex, who once visited a fish processing factory to see the massive quantity of waste generated by the industry and found new ways to use it. She focused on fish skins and scales(鳞片). “When I had it in my h ands, I realizedthis has got potential,” she says. “It s super strong and flexible.” Hughes spent months experimenting with fish waste in her kitchen, running more than 100 experiments to find a binder(粘合剂) and a process that could hold together theprote ins in the fish skins and scales.“I had a lot of failed attempts. A lot of things either were too easily broken or too soft or easily went bad,” she says. She finally found a type of algae that can be locally got.The material can be used to replace oil-based plastic in packaging such as bags or the half-transparent windows used to show products in boxes. As her research continues, Hughes says that she’ll be studying how MarinaTex works and how long it could be used to store food.Unlike some “composable” p lastics, which need to be processed in an industrial composting(堆肥) facility to break down, the new material can break down in four to six weeks in a backyard compost bin. “All the ingredients are food-grade safe,” Hughes says. “So, this breaks down much l ike a piece of food would break down.；9. Why did MarinaTex win this year s James Dyson Award?A．It doesn’t go into the ocean.B．It is environmentally-friendly.C．It doesn’t produce any waste.D．It doesn’t look like conventional plastic.；10. What is the main idea conveyed in paragraph 2?A．Where Hughes got inspiration for the binder.B．How Hughes developed MarinaTex.C．What advantages MarinaTex has.D．Where the binder can be used.；11. What is yet to be found out?A．How long it takes for MarinaTex to break down.B．How long MarinaTex can be used to store food.C．Whether MarinaTex can replace oil-based plastic.D．Whether MarinaTex is better than half-transparent windows.；12. Where is the text most likely to appear?A．In a science fiction. B．In a government report.C．In a science magazine. D．In a government announcement.二、完形填空As a community worker, I came into serious conflict with my community last week, and things completely fell apart between me and my community.

But soon, the importance of English idioms was shown in an amusing experience.One day, I happened to meet an Englishman on the road, and soon we began to talk. As I was talking about how I was studying English, the foreigner seemed to be astonished. Gently shaking his head and shrugging his shoulders, he said, “You don‟t say!” “You don‟t say!” I was puzzled. I thought, perhaps this is not an appropriate topic. “Well, I‟d better change the topic.” So I said to him, “Well, shall we talk about the Great Wall? By the way, have you ever been there?” “Certainly, everyone back home will laugh at me if I leave China without seeing it. It was magnificent” He was deep in thought when I began to talk like a tourist guide. “The Great Wall is one of the wonders in the world. We are very proud of it” Soon I was interrupted again by his words：“You don‟t say!” I couldn‟t help asking, “Why do you ask me not to talk about it?” “Well, I didn‟t request you to do so,” he answered, greatly surprised. I said, “Didn‟t you say …you don‟t say‟?” Hearing this, the Englishman laughed to tears. He began to explain, “…You don‟t say‟ actually means …really?‟ It is an expression of surprise. Perhaps you don‟t pay attention to English idioms.” Only then did I know I had made a fool of myself. Since then I have been more careful with idiomatic expressions.Remember: what the English teachers said is always right to us students.36. A year ago, I paid no attention to English idioms because _______ .A．English idioms were not importantB．I was not careful with English idiomsC．My teacher didn‟t emphasize the im portance of themD．I had no interest in them37. At first, on hearing “You don‟t say,” I thought the foreigner meant ___ .A．he was not interested in the topicB．he was only interested in the Great WallC．I had talked too muchD．I had to stop talking38. The underlined word in the first paragraph probably means ____ .A．interesting B．important C．terrible D．unlucky39. After the Englishman explained the idiom, __________ .A．I thought the Englishman had made me a foolB．the Englishman became a real foolC．I felt very sillyD．I became more careful in everythingBParents often believe that they have a good relationship with their teenagers（青少年）. But last summer, Joanna and Henry noticed a change in their older son: suddenly he seemed to be talking far more to his friends than to his parents. “The door to his room is always shut.” Joanna noted.Tina and Mark noticed similar changes in their 14-year-old daughter. “She used to cuddle up（蜷伏）with me on the sofa and talk ,” said Mark . “Now we joke that she does this only when she wants something. Sometimes she wants to be treated like a little girl and sometimes like a young lady. The problem is figuring out which time is which. ”Before a ge 11, children like to tell their parents what‟s on their minds. “In fact, parents are first on the list.” said Michael Rita, author of Uncommon Sense for Parents with Teenagers. “This completely changes during the teen years.” Rita explained. “They talk to their friends first, then maybe their teachers, and their parents last.”Parents who know what‟s going on in their teenagers‟ lives are in the best position to help them. To break down the wall of silence, parents should create chances to understand what their children want to say , and try to find ways to talk and write to them . And they must give their children a mental break, for children also need freedom, though young. Another thing, parents should remember is that to be a friend, not a manager, with their children is a better way to know them.40. “The door to his room is always shut” suggests that the son .A. is always busy with his studiesB. doesn‟t want to be disturbedC. keeps himself away from his parentsD. begins to dislike his parents41. What troubles Tina and Mark most is that .A. their daughter isn‟t as lovely as beforeB. they can‟t read their daughter‟s mind exactlyC. they don‟t know what to say to their daughterD. their daughter talks with them only when she needs help42. Which of the following best explains “the wall of silence” in the last paragraph ?A. Teenagers talk a lot with their friends.B. Teenagers do not want to understand their parents.C. Teenagers do not talk much with their parents.D. Teenagers talk little about their own lives.43. What can be learned from the passage?A. Parents are unhappy with their growing children.B. Parents have suitable ways to talk with their teenagers.C. Parents should be patient with their silent teenagers.D. Parents should try to understand their teenagers.。

Where is this text most likely from?A．A diary. B．A guidebook.C．A news report. D．A story book.（二）During the COP27 climate conference (会议) in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt, an important deal on “loss and damage” was reached. This was a big step forward because at COP26 conference in Glasgow, Scotland, there were no talks on loss and damage at all. The plan is that richer countries will pay money into a special fund that will be used to help poor countries.Loss and damage means the damaging impact of climate change on developing countries. For nearly 30 years, poorer countries have been asking richer countries formoney to help to protect communities from the effects of climate change. Richer countries have produced the most greenhouse gases, but poorer countries are often the worst affected by extreme weather conditions because they are less well equipped to face extreme climate events.Brazil’s newly elected President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva made a speech about preserving the largest rainforest on Earth, the Amazon. During the last 50 years, more than 17% of the Amazon rainforest has been destroyed to make way for farms and towns. However, in his speech, Lula promised that there would be zero deforestation (伐树) in the Amazon by 2030. The conference didn’t just focus on world leaders. It brought together more than 45,000 people to discuss how climate change is affecting their lives. Climate refugees (难民) also had their voices heard. Tshilombo from the Kakuma refugee camp in Kenya said, “Refugees don’t only flee becaus e of war or conflict. It’s also about drought, the effects of climate change.”Some countries weren’t happy with the overall outcome of COP27 because decisions weren’t made on cutting the use of fossil fuels, such as coal, gas and oil, etc. The UK Governme nt’s Alok Sharma said, “I’m incredibly disappointed.”However, this deal was a great achievement for developing countries. Sherry Rehman, the climate minister for Pakistan, said, “I am confident we have tuned a comer in how we work together to achieve clim ate goals.”；4. What is a successful outcome of the COP27 climate conference?A．The deal on loss and damage.B．The deal on using fossil fuels.C．The deal on rainforest preservation.D．The deal on helping climate refugees.；5. What has made it difficult for developing countries to fight against climate change? A．More greenhouse gases.B．Massive deforestation.C．Shortage of money and supplies.D．Terrible weather conditions.；6. What can we infer from Paragraph 3?A．Climate change is influencing people’s live s.B．17% of the Amazon rainforest was destroyed.C．Many factors lead to the appearance of refugees.D．There will be less deforestation in the Amazon by 2030.；7. What would Sherry Rehman probably agree with?A．Never put off till tomorrow.B．Many hands make light work.C．Knowledge starts with practice.D．No way is impossible to courage.（三）What are you doing this weekend? Perhaps you're spending time with family, hanging out with friends, or maybe you're going to play a sport. All around the world, people chill out at the end of the working week and take part in leisure activities. In many countries, the weekend consists of Saturday and Sunday, while in others Friday and Saturday are the days of rest. In Afghanistan, Thursday and Friday form the weekend, while in one country, Brunei, Friday and Sunday are the days off.Have you ever stopped to wonder, though, exactly where it originated? And how is the concept going to change? The modern weekend took shape during the Industrial Revolution. In the early 19 century, in areas such as the north of England, people began to leave the countryside to work in towns and cities. There, new factories were springing up. Their working lives were once ruled by nature, with the amount of work depending on the changing seasons. Now, their employers demanded a different rhythm-a six-day week of up to 12 hours a day, followed by one day of rest.Campaigns for workers' rights appeared. By the end of the century they had managed to reduce the working week to five and a half days. This meant that working people could take an interest in hobbies such as photography, which was very new at the time. In the US in the 1920s, the industrialist Henry Ford helped to create the weekend. He gave all his workers Saturday and Sunday off work. His factories manufactured cars, and he wanted to allow his employees time to purchase and enjoy the cars they were producing.These days, in many countries, working a 40-hour week is normal. Many people have a nine-to-five job, but even that is rapidly changing. Technology enables more people to work from home and plan their own use of time. This means that an official period away from work is becoming less important. Perhaps in the future we will work fewer hours altogether. If we become more productive, we should be able to afford the same lifestyle by working fewer hours. It has been estimated, for example, that a worker in the US can achieve a 1950s standard of living by working just 1l hours a week. Some people have recommended a 21-hour working week to help with unemployment, climate change and inequality. However, a change like that may mean more leisure time but it will probably limit people's ability to earn money to enjoy it.8. What does the underlined word “originated” in the second paragraph me an? A．Relaxed. B．Started. C．Appeared suddenly. D．Stopped. 9. What happened as a result of campaigns on behalf of workers?A．People became more inventive.B．People worked fewer hours per day.C．People worked fewer hours overall.D．People found employment in leisure industries.10. The writer says an American businessman gave his workers time off so that A．he could produce more cars.B．they could spend money on cars.C．he didn’t have to pay them to drive.D．they would enjoy working with him.11. Why does the writer suggest the weekend may be less important now? A．Because we start work later than we used toB．Because nobody works over 40 hours a week.C．Because technology empowers individuals to arrange their own time. D．Because people are out control of their working week.二、七选五阅读Mondays are kind of annoying. 12 A recent survey says that most people get the pre-work “Sunday blues”. Starting your Monday feeling sad, anxious and unorganized is hardly the way to kick off a healthy week.The solution? Set aside a little time on Sunday to purposefully prepare yourself for the five days ahead, suggests women’s health expert Marsha Hudnall. 13Do some meal preparations.Figuring out what to have for dinner on weeknights can be surprisingly stressf ul. Stretching out a menu plan on Sunday and swinging by the grocery store for ingredients will help you eat well. Go a step further by chopping and cooking vegetables and a protein (like a roast chicken or scrambled eggs). 14 Or finally attempt a di fferent diet you’ve been meaning to try. For easy dinner planning, just order, and you’ll have a week’s worth of raw materials for delicious and healthy meals.Start a Sunday stress-relief habit.“To be healthy, we have to take care of body and mind,” says Hudnall. Stress has a major impact on health and our ability to concentrate. 15 Four ideas to try: a guided meditation with the help of an app; forest bathing－a practice known as shinrin-yoku in Japan, which basically means taking a long walk or hik e in a wooded area; gentle exercise like yoga; or time cuddling and playing with your pet.16Why not prepare your favorite clothes for Monday?

Enjoying a sunset with a romantic partner can make the occasion more special. The sunset watching spots on this list are perfect for Valentine’s Day — or anytime you want a little extra romance.Beauty by the SeaCartagena BayCARTAGENA, COLOMBIAA sunset cruise (航游) on the Bay of Cartagena is the perfect way to end your day when you are exploring the city that had its first residents in 4,000 B．C．This UNESCO World Heritage Site has beautiful beaches and a historic old town ready for arm-in-arm wandering. Anarchipelago, the beautiful Rosario Islands, is a one-hour boat ride from the mainland.Love and LightEiffel TowerPARISWhether you call it the City of Light or the City of Love, both nicknames for Paris hold true when you’re on top of the Eiffel Tower with your lo ved one at sunset. Watch the city lights come up as the sun goes down, champagne (香槟) in hand. Four restaurants are in this area.

What can people do in both Eiffel Tower and AI Faisaliah Tower?A．Watch city lights.B．Enjoy food.C．Explore beautiful beaches.D．Experience AI service.3. Where is the text probably taken from?A．An academic article.B．An educational website.C．A geography textbook.D．A travel brochure.BThe recent launch of ChatGPT, a chatbot created by Open AI for public use, has underlined the growing reach of digital technologies like artificial intelligence (AI) in working life. Like most technological revolutions that affect the workplace, chatbots can potentially create winners and losers and will affect both blue-collar and white-collar workers.ChatGPT is a natural language processing (NLP) tool that allows users to interact with the GPT-3 model using natural language. The model is trained on a great amount of data, which allows it to generate human-like responses to a wide variety of inputs.This type of AI can greatly benefit the productivity of skilled workers. Chatbots offer the possibility to automate (使自动化) boring and time-consuming tasks, such as writing standardized reports, meeting minutes and emails. Workers could therefore be freed to focus on more important and creative tasks. A chatbot virtual personal assistant could guide skilled workers through different projects or production processes. It can also generate original content and ideas, and potentially help to research and develop new products and services.But tools such as ChatGPT presents a real risk of skilled and semi-skilled workers losing their jobs. For example, chatbots can be developed to train employees in an organization, resulting in the unemployment of human trainers.Previous waves of technological change have created both winners and losers. Workers who are quicker to adjust to technological change will win by increasingly taking on tasks complementary (互补的) to AI while giving up automated ones.；4. This passage centers around the effects of AI like ChatGPT on .A．life B．entertainment C．sports D．work；5. Paragraph 2 mainly talks about .A．what ChatGPT is B．how ChatGPT is usedC．why ChatGPT is created D．who created ChatGPT；6. In paragraph 3, how many benefits of Chatbots are mentioned?A．2. B．3. C．4. D．5.；7. According to the text, faced with technological revolutions, workers hadbetter .A．continue ahead with their automated jobs and work harderB．do other things while keeping up with the automated onesC．adapt to the change by doing other things to form a good combination with AID．give up automated jobs and just learn as much AI knowledge as possibleCTo deal with a big environmental problem, chemists have been thinking small. Really small. Their new tiny robot has one purpose: to help clean up tiny bits of plastic (塑料的) polluting waterways across the world.Each new microrobot is no bigger than the tip of a sharpened pencil. They are magnetic (磁的) and shaped like stars. When sunlight hits them, they produce chemical reactions (化学反应) that push them through water in a specific direction. When the y find a piece of plastic, they catch it and start to break it down. When the lights go out, they let go and are free to be used again. In a new study, the scientists reported that these robots can either break down a piece of microplastic or hold onto it to be collected later.Chemist Martin Pumera at the Czech University of Chemistry and Technology in Prague led the project. He studies ways to build microrobots. He says: “Let’s make them do something useful.”Pumera chose to center on the problem caused b y microplastics. It’s a big problem. These are tiny bits of plastic, usually no wider than the top of a pencil eraser. And they’re everywhere — from the bottom of the ocean to air blowing onto ice at the top of mountains. They’ve turned up in drinking wate r, both bottled and tap water. Some studies found that too many pieces of plastic end up in the world’s waters. Plastic doesn’t easily degrade (分解) or fall apart. That’s always been one of its study points.Pumera says his final goal is to make cheap and environmentally-friendly robots that can be used anywhere in the world. He thought that at first they might be most useful in plants that treat wastewater. There they can remove plastic before it reaches open water.In lab experiments, the star-shaped swimmers catch each of four different types of plastic. And after a week exposed (暴露) to light, the robots had reduced the weight of the plastics. It wasn’t much — only by 3 percent. But that was a sign they were breaking the plastic down.In fact, Pumera says they still have a long way to go. There are many types of plastics. And even these microrobots are unlikely to succeed in degrading them all.The researchers also have not yet shown how safe this system is for the environment, although Pumera says that’s t heir next goal. The first real-world test will be in a waste water-treatment plant.；8. What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A．Microrobots. B．Stars.C．Pencils. D．Microplastics.；9. Paragraph 4 is mainly about .A．the experiment carried out by PumeraB．the functions that the microrobot holdsC．the places where microplastics usually turn upD．the reason why Pumera invented the microrobot；10. According to the passage microrobots .A．can break down plastics in the darkB．prove to be most useful in open waterC．do no harm to the environment at presentD．need further testing before they are put into use；11. What is the main purpose of the passage?A．To encourage people to find more solutions to pollutions.B．To present a new way of breaking down microplastics.C．To stress the importance of protecting the water.D．To explain a serious environmental problem.二、七选五阅读Camping is a fun and exciting experience, but to stay organized and safe, you must carefully prepare for the trip.12 . If it is just you or your family, things will become easier. However, if you are taking a group of friends, you’d better make sure you get insurance information and health information before you start. If someone is injured on the trip, the insurance information will make a huge difference in the care they receive. 13 . For example, for those who are suffering basic diseases, make sure they have enough medicines available.Then decide how long you will stay and figure out where you will be camping. If you do not know this, you will go through the trouble of purchasing and packing a tent when you were supposed to sleep in a cabin.14 . The food should be enough for three meals and an optional snack per day, as well as lots of water. Basically, ensure food safety. Foods like dairy products and meat go bad easily. 15 .At last, gather all of the other things on the “Things You’ll Need" list and try to pack them in a small, lightweight bag. 16 . Materials to deal with burns, cuts, and bumps should be prepared in it.A．Health information is also importantB．Stay calm when an accident happensC．Make sure they are fresh and safe to eatD．And never forget to pack up a first aid kitE．Firstly, decide with whom you are campingF．Taking exercise every day is a good way to keep healthyG．Of course, you’d better pack an appropriate amount of food三、语法填空17 most TV stations and video-streaming platforms try to attract viewers by producing star-studded(明星荟萃的)reality shows, Henan TV has gone viral(走红)by promoting traditional culture through Chinese dance.This year, Henan TV produced seven dance pieces 18 (highlight)traditional culture, such as Rhapsody on the Luo River Goddess(《洛神水赋》), a two-minute underwater dance, and Dragon Boat Festival and Guardian Warriors of Longmen(《龙门金刚》), a dance piece 19 (support)by AR technology against the backdrop of the Longmen Grottoes.Last month, Yao Wei, director of the TV station’s Innovation Center, was invitedto talk about how the TV station 20 (produce)the hit dance pieces at a three-day forum centering on the research of Chinese dance.The pieces made an emotional impact on audiences, most of 21 are members of Gen Z(people born between 1995 and 2009), Yao said.“It 22 (be)over forty years since the country’s reform and opening-up and the younger generations have grown up with a more open mindset. With plenty of resources and opportunities, they embrace Chinese culture and are proud of it,” said Yao. “ 23 we need to do is present Chinese culture and tradition in interesting ways for those young people.”Yao added that Henan TV has been producing shows highlighting traditional culture, such as traditional operas and kung fu, for nearly 30 years.“ 24 (appeal)to younger audiences, we are also changing our shows. One of the keys is to produce content with strong visual creativity,” Yao said. “For example, the latest technology and unconventional stage settings, like underwater scenes, have become our new ways of telling stories about traditional Chinese culture, rather than simply narrating history with traditional video content.”Another key to successfully 25 (reach)younger audiences is using social media platforms to promote their shows.“Social media 26 (shape)and driven by young people. It’s a powerful form of communication. When they take a quick scroll through their phones, they easily become interested in an eye-catching video,” Yao said.四、完形填空Mice are at their best at night. But a new analysis suggests researchers often test the nightly creatures during the day, which could alter results and create 27 across various studies, if they record time-of-day information 28 . Scientists assume that waking up lab mice in the daytime may twist research.Of the 200 papers examined in the new study, more than half cither failed to report the timing of behavioral testing or did so 29 . On the contrary, they found only 20percent reported 30 testing. The analysis was published in Neuroscience & Bio-behavioral Reviews.West Virginia University neuro-scientist Randy Nelson, the study's lead author, says this is likely a matter of human 31 . “It is easier to get students and schools to work duri ng the day than at night,” Nelson says. But that advantage 32 .“Time of day not only impacts the intensity of many 33 , including mice activity, aggressiveness of their behavior, and hormone levels,” but changes in those factors can only be 34 during certain parts of the daytime cycle, says University of Wyoming behavioral neuro-scientist William D．Todd. This means that “failing to report time of day of data collection and tests makes 35 of results extremely difficult,” adds Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center staff scientist Natalia Machado. Neither Todd nor Machado was involved in the new study.36 , the study researchers say it is critical that scientists report the timing of their work and consider the fact that animals' behavioral and physiological responses can 37 with the hour. As a first step, Nelson says, “obviously, taking time-of-day into consideration seems like 38 fruit in terms of line assing behavioral neuroscience research reliability, reproducibility and rigor (严谨性)University of Calgary psychologist Michael Antle, who was also not involved in the analysis, says such differences in how studies are run 39 a “reproducibility crisis” in science, with other laboratories unable to 40 study results. “Running a study at the wrong time,” he says, “could lead to us completely 41 a finding altogether.”27.

I met the Man of the Trees in summer ten years ago, when I was visiting Uncle Jita.Those were difficult times. People were cutting down our forest, and there was often flooding. Sometimes our water supply was dirty. When our pump(水泵)did have clean water, we had to wait in line for ages. When the pump wasn’t working, we had to walk five kilometres to the closest stream.But I was happy. I was going to see my favorite uncle. When the day finally arrived, Dad drove me to Uncle Jita’s house and left. Once he saw me, Uncle Jita announced, “Tomorrow we’re going to explore a magical place. Here is my camera, Amy. You can take photos of what you see.”The following day, we woke up and left early on a boat. The trip was exciting. But when we got off, there was ... nothing in front of us. “I don’t want to t ake pictures of this,” I complained.Uncle laughed,“Start walking, Amy. I promise you’ll be surprised.” After some time, I could see the outline of a forest in the distance. A little closer, there was a man waving to us.“That’s Kabir. The forest you see is his. He planted every single tree.” As we walked towards Kabir, Uncle explained that thirty years ago, the whole area was a wasteland. But one day Kabir decided to change all that and started planting trees. Thanks to him, part of the wasteland is now a paradise(天堂).Uncle introduced me to Kabir, who had gray hair and a determined face. “Jita told me you like animals. Are you ready to see some?” he asked. “Of course!” I replied. We continued walking and soon were under the trees. I turned my head and was amazed at the difference between the two places. All because of the efforts of one man.Like Uncle said, Kabir’s forest was magical. We saw deer, rhinos, and even tigers. During lunchtime, Kabir explained how, by planting trees, it was possible to stop the land from eroding(侵蚀).注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

Note that there are two more sentences than you need.Can just one person make a difference? You bet! In a community every person counts, and getting involved is not difficult. Take stock of your own talents and interests. Don't wait for someone else to act first. Take the initiative! Once you see what you can accomplish, you'll want to keep going.Here are just a few ways to make a difference in your community. How many more ways can you come up with?Clean up the community. People often throw litter in places where there is already litter. And the problem only becomes worse until someone gets fed up and does something. Could your neighborhood use a cleanup? Neighborhood cleanups are often sponsored by local businesses or schools. But if your community doesn't have a cleanup program, get together with friends to organize one. You could pick up garbage in a larger area twice a year, or you could clean a smaller area every few months.Include the isolated. Do you know anyone who is housebound? Almost all neighborhoods have a few people who have to stay at their homes. These people are often elderly and unable to leave their homes to perform simple tasks. By letting them "borrow" your legs and eyes, you can make them feel included. You can run errands for them like shopping or paying bills. They might like you to read to them if their eyesight is failing. Governments provide some of the services these people need, but programs cannot give them friendship; that's what communities are for!Reading clubs are popular all over Europe and North America. Members might read at home to prepare for discussion, or they might read aloud to each other and talk about what they just read. Either way, a book or article can spark lively discussion and this often challenges people to take action.A. Cleaning your community will have a positive effect on others in society.B. They find a need or an issue you really care about.C. But they belong to the community, too.D. Living in a clean neighborhood will be its own reward.E. Don't hesitate to take part in the community's activity.F. Round up some readers.二、语法填空阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

(用非限制性定语从句翻译) （汉译英）二、阅读AOne third of adults over 65 in America have never used the Internet, and half don’t even have Internet access at home. In San Francisco, “the center of tech”, 40% of older adults do not have basic digital literacy skills.This situation is becoming appalling as over 10,000 Americans turn 65 every single day. By 2050,22% of Americans will be 65 or older. Meanwhile, technology is developing very fast. This means that a large number of people will be unable to proficiently use emergent technology.Many people believe that seniors aren’t required to participate in our tech future because they’ll be retired and relaxed soon. But this is the farthest thing from the truth. Baby boomers are currently experiencing a different boom: With more people getting older than ever before, their life expediencies are also increasing dramatically. With medical advancements, the number of American people projected to live into their 90’s has doubled since 1965.However, they don’t have strong financial or educational support. This is not a problem; it’s a crisis. More than half of employees over 50 have been laid off in what’s being called ”forced retirement“. And few organizations ar e actively helping older employees make the transition from full-time jobs to part-time ones. For those fortunate enough to be employed, 3 out of 5 older workers experience prejudice.The easiest solution is to teach digital literacy. If baby boomers want to survive the forthcoming retirement crisis, they should get enough digital knowledge and skills to operate today’s tools and tomorrow’s platforms. With every crisis comes an opportunity. Tutoring, customer service, editing, research, book-keeping, and other virtual assistance-based work open the doors. But again, digital knowledge is first required to live in our high-tech society and gig economy. So try to get more online and navigate the growing number of sites and apps.；6. What does the underlined wor d “appalling” probably mean in paragraph2? A．Confusing. B．Terrible. C．Controllable. D．Inspiring.；7. What problem may baby boomers face?A．A crisis after retirement. B．Being knocked out in the future. C．Failing to receive good healthcare. D．Tending to double their life expediencies.；8. What is the last paragraph mainly about?A．The features of high-tech jobs. B．The way out for baby boomers. C．Potential industries in the future. D．The importance of developing technology.；9. What does the author advise baby boomers to do?A．Have a good sense of crisis. B．Avoid retiring at an early age. C．Look for many part-time jobs. D．Improve digital literacy actively.BThe words “protect animals” appear everywhere in books and on screens, because some animals are even in danger of dying out. But sometimes the reality can be a little different from what people read or watch.About 300 black bears were killed in Florida, the US, in October, 2015.It’s been the first bear hunt in the state since 1994.Local officers explained t hat the black bear population（a）had grown to 3,500 and become a menace to local people.In the past two years, bears have hurt at least four people in Florida.Months ago ,the Swiss government allowed the locals to kill a wolf.This was because the wolf killed 38 sheep, and it was a great loss to some local farmers. Days ago in China, three old men were caught by the police for killing a serow（鬣羚）, a kind of protected animal.They said they killed the animal because it ate the plants they grew.However, these stories don’t always mean that animal protection stops because of human interests especially when it is related to economic development.A man named Zhou Weisen set up a wild animal base in Guilin, Guangxi. He saved over 170 tigers and about 300 bears.His base also offered jobs to local people.“There may never be a standard answer to the question of whether we should give more attention to the environment or human development,”said Robert May, a British expert at Oxford University. “But we shouldn’t put ei ther one to one side, as the future is uncertain.”；10. What does the underlined word “menace”in paragraph 2 probably mean? A．Tradition. B．Threat. C．Benefit. D．Relief.；11. Why did the Swiss government allow the locals to kill the wolf?A．The wolf killed a serow.B．The wolf was caught by the police.C．The wolf ate the plants the farmers grew.D．The wolf caused economic loss to local farmers.；12. Why did the author mention Zhou Weisen’s story in paragraph 4?A．To show that animal protection stops.B．To prove animal protection is important.C．To explain protecting animals can bring economic development.D．To stress that animal protection must give way to human interests.；13. Which of the following might Robert May agree with?A．Human interests should be considered first.B．We should focus on the future rather than the present.C．Humans can kill animals when their interests are harmed.D．Keeping the right balance between the environment and human interests is important.三、七选五阅读I love learning foreign languages so much that I learn a new language every two years. When people find I’m a polyglot(通晓多种语言的人)，they always askme,“How do you do that?” Honestly, my answer will be, “I don’t know. I simply love learning languages.” 14 They want to know why they spend years learning even one language, never achieving fluency, and what’s the secret of being polyglots.15 And what do we have in common? I decided to find that out. I went to several events where language lovers gather to practice their languages, asked dozens of polyglots about methods they use, and heard dozens of approaches. Everybody seems to have a unique way to speak several languages fluently.16 All these polyglots talked about language learning as if it was great fun. They found ways to turn language learning from a boring subject into a pleasant daily activity. You should have seen their faces when they were showing me their colorful grammar charts and handmade flash cards. 17 The methods are various, but they make s ure it’s something enjoyable.I realized it’s actually how I learn. 18 Then interesting programs became my choice. So all is clear. If you don’t like writing words down on paper, type them in an app. If you’re a shy person, apply self-talk at home. This is how polyglots learn languages, and the best news is that it’s available to anyone willing to take the learning into their own hands.A．How can those with little talent be fluent?B．But people are never happy with the reply.C．There’s no shortcut t o learning languages for anyone.D．One of them even made recipes in a foreign language.E．That made me wonder, too, how other polyglots actually do it.F．When learning Spanish last year, I was bored with textbooks.G．Polyglots simply found ways to enjoy the language-learning process.四、语法填空Samuel Langhorne Clemens, more commonly 19 (know) as Mark Twain, was born on November 30, 1835 in Florida.

Between 1873 and 1889 he wrote seven novels 26 (include) his Mississippi River books.27 Twain’s life and career progressed he lost much of the humorous style of his earlier years.

Gold medal performances require some serious nutrition. Have you ever wondered what these successful athletes eat to stay in peak shape?Keri Glassman, a registered dietitian and founde r of Nutritious Life Meals, appeared on ―Good Morning America‖ today to give you a glimpse into the diets of some top athletes. Some of their meals could surprise you.Crazy Calorie CountGlassman said Olympians eat a lot of food－quantities that for ordinary people would constitute pigging out. One secret of swimmer Michael Phelps’ astonishing performance in the 2008Olympics in Beijing was consuming as many as 12,000 calories in one day.Athletes can eat like this and not gain any weight because their workouts are intense. According to Glassman, Phelps’ workouts can burn 4,000 to 6,000 calories in a day, and those calories must beadded in order to train the following day.Snacking SecretsSome athletes eat strange foods that improve their performance. Yohan Blake, the Jamaica sprinter and 100-meter world champion, has stolen champion sprinter Usain Bolt’s thunder on the track during the Olympic trials, Asked about how he gets his energy. Blake answered that he eats 16 bananas per day, Glassman said.Jonathan Horton, the lead gymnast on the US team, has a blood sugar problem. His solution is honey. When he starts to feel shaky at the gym, he takes honey to boost his energy, Classman said.Foods for RecoveryWhat are the best foods to help the body recover after harsh competition?For Olympic swimmer Ryan Lochte, the recovery meal is grilled chicken breasts with Alfredo sauce, whole-grain spaghetti and a salad with lemon juice and olive oil. Lochte, who recently cut out junk food, candy and soda, has undertaken a strength-training regimen(养生法)that involves flipping tractor tires, and tossing beer kegs, Glassman said.36. What’s the best title of this passage?A. Good Diet Makes a True Olympian.B. Olympians Have Olympic-size Appetites.C. Olympians’ Strange Eating Habits.D. The Diet of Some Top Olympic Athletes.37.

It is up to you to decide how to react to it. Learn how to deal with criticism and lead a happier and more relaxing life.Ask yourself how the criticism will affect you. Will you lose your job because of the criticism? Will you lose what is important to you because you are criticized? Will life stop existing if your opinions are not accepted? Surely not! So, don’t worry about it. Instead, remember that some criticism actually helps you make some improvements.You absolutely cannot stop what people say. What you can do, however, is to change the way you react to criticism. If you let it upset you, then the blame is on you. You have the right to decide what to do with the criticism you receive.Don’t be afraid to accept criticism. No on e likes to be told that he is wrong. Yet, every single person has, at one time or another, been blamed for something. Realize that it’s normal. You may have received some strong criticism, but it doesn’t mean that you are foolish, or that you don’t have th e ability to do something properly. If you are afraid to put your work out for others to see, you’ll never know if you are a capable person. Try not to think of it in that way and don’t take it seriously. If you can learn to be optimistic, you will remove some stress and nervousness about what people think, thus becoming happier.Consider where the criticism comes from. It may help you step back and examine what causes the criticism. Is the critic just trying to offer constructive criticism? It is much easier to accept correction or guidance from someone that has good intentions. This type of criticism is known as valid criticism, because there is a valid point or reason to it. On the other hand, there are critics that offer their advice just to be negative. This is commonly referred to as invalid criticism because it is often not of any use at all.Do your best. And if someone doesn’t like what you’ve done, so what? It’s either valid criticism or invalid criticism. But you have the power to decide how you will allow it to affect you.ABBCD DDADC CACADCDABC ACDAC BCDBA DBDBADBAAD1. substitute with2. reminded of3. get our way4. has a bad effect on5. object to6. submit to7. is bound to 8. split off from 9. was consistent with10.

The gardens themselves boast thousands of species of plants. This is a lovely place to relax and explore the beautiful surroundings.Parc des Buttes-Chaumont: over 24 hectaresIf you want to get off the tourist trail and hang out with true Parisians, this park is the perfect spot for a relaxing picnic or a leisurely wander. It is in the 19th district and is one of the largest parks in Paris. Cross its lake on the suspension bridge, or admire the waterfalls and attractive temples.Jardin du Luxembourg: over 25 hectaresThese beautiful gardens were first laid out in 1612 as the gardens of the Luxembourg Palace. They include a geometric forest, French and English style gardens, as well as a large pond. There is so much to see and do with activities especially for children, such as slides, rides and puppet shows, as well as leisure and sporting activities for adults. The gardens are home to more than one hundred sculptures.Le Parc de la Villette: 55 hectaresThis urban cultural park is so much more than just a park as it is home to numerous music venues, exhibition spaces and cafes. It is also home to no less than 12 gardens, which all follow different themes. The Passenger Gardens, for example, which are built on what was once the sheep market, support a variety of ecosystems, demonstrating the importance of biodiversity.1. Which green space probably suits students who are interested in botany?A．Jardin des Plantes. B．Parc des Buttes-Chaumont.C．Jardin du Luxembourg. D．Le Parc de la Villette.2. Which is special about Jardin du Luxembourg?A．They used to be royal gardens. B．They are Parisian favourite gardens. C．They feature American style gardens. D．They house a variely of African animals.3.

They have developed a very thin and gold-based transparent coating (涂层) that can convert sunlight into heat, which can be applied to glass and other surfaces to prevent them from fogging.The special coating is developed using titanium oxide and gold particles. It selectively absorbs infrared radiations (红外线照射) from the sunlight and creates a heating effect that is powerful enough to keep fog away from the surface of an object.The coating basically employs heat to stop fogging. The coating absorbs a large part of the infrared radiation, which causes it to heat up-by up to 8℃.Previously, products like anti-fogging sprays create a very thin film of water on the surface to remove fog. The problem with such surfaces is pollution. Along with water, the sprays also attract dirt, dust, oil, and various other dirty substances, and just a little dirt on the surface makes it useless. However, the new coating repels (排斥) water. Furthermore, the coating is significantly thinner, which makes it more transparent as well as flexible. It is heated passively and requires, during daytime, no additional energy source.Gold might be expensive, but the researchers stress that their coating requires solittle that the material costs remain low. Their coating is produced with standardized and readily scalable methods, all cost-effectively. However, although this product can work at very low levels of solar irradiation, it does rely on a certain amount of light.The researchers will develop the coating further for other applications. In the process, they will examine whether other metals work just as well as gold. There is no need to fear. However, this would cause a car or a building to heat up more in the summer. The researchers have already filed a patent. Hopefully, this groundbreaking product will soon be available on the market.；4. How does the new coating work to remove fog?A．By reflecting part of sunlight selectively.B．By keeping cool air away from the object.C．By creating a thin film of water on the surface.D．By absorbing infrared radiations to heat the coating.；5. Why does the author mention previous anti-fogging products?A．To stress the advantages of the new coating.B．To introduce the inspiration behind the new coating.C．To prove the difficulty of creating anti-fogging products.D．To explain the reason for the anti-fogging coating being popular .；6. What is the limitation of the new coating?A．It is considerably expensive.B．It depends on sunlight to work.C．It takes too much time to produce.D．It is difficult to clean and maintain.；7. What do the researchers plan to do next?A．Apply for a patent for the invention.B．Develop the product for more practical uses.C．Explore the environmental impact of the coating.D．Seek a cheaper material as an alternative to gold.CAn exhibition of vivid photographs and a restored documentary give fresh insight into the Antarctic explorer, who died a century ago.One hundred years ago, the leader of the last great expeditio n of the heroic age of polar exploration died from a heart attack as his ship, Quest, headed for Antarctica. The announcement of the death of Ernest Shackleton on 30 January 1922 was greeted with an outpouring of national grief.This was the man, after all, who had saved the entire crew of his ship Endurance —which had been crushed and sunk by ice in 1915 — by making a daring trip in a tiny open boat over 750 miles of polar sea to raise the alarm at a whaling station in South Georgia.It remains one of the greatest rescue stories of modern history and led to the idolising of Shackleton in the United Kingdom, a reputation that survived undamaged for the rest of the century. As his contemporary Raymond Priestley, the geologist and Antarctic explorer, later put it: “When disaster strikes and all hope is gone, get down on your knees and pray for Shackleton.”And here and now in 2022, his death is being marked with an elaborately illustrated exhibition —Shackleton’s legacy and the power of early Antarctic pho tography — which opens at the Royal Geographical Society (RGS), and which includes a range of images and artefacts from his expeditions. Additionally, a digitally remade version of South, a documentary film of Shackleton’s 1914-16 Endurance expedition, is being screened at the British Film Institute.The film and most of the exhibition’s finest images are the handiwork of Frank Hurley, who sailed with Shackleton and who was one of the 20th century’s greatest photographers and film-makers. Both film and exhibition feature striking camera work and provide vivid accounts of the hardships that Shackleton and his men endured as they headed off to explore Antarctica.Even after he survived the great expedition, he still longed for another trip to Antarctica, and after long negotiations set sail in Quest, from England, with the aim of circumnavigating (环航) Antarctica, Shackleton was by now very ill and had suffered at least one heart attack. On 2 January 1922, he wrote in his diary: “I grow old and tired but must a lways lead on.” Three days later he had a major heart attack and died a few hours later. He is buried on South Georgia, scene of his greatest triumph.“Shackleton was an inspirational leader. He had an innate sense of what was possible and achievable. He also had a huge personality but led by example. At the same time, he was sensitive to the needs of the individuals he was leading. For example, after Endurance broke up, his men had lost their protection and shelter. Their social fabric had been destroyed. There would have been disagreement. Yet Shackleton succeeded in keeping them together and made sure they survived.”8. People were overcome with grief when Ernest Shackleton died because .A．it was a huge pity that such a brave explorer should ha ve died from a heart attack B．he was the man that wrote about one of the greatest rescue stories of modern history C．he came to his entire crew’s rescue and symbolised hope in extreme circumstances D．there was no one to pray to anymore when disaster came and there was no hope9. What can we learn about the exhibition?A．It presents Shackleton’s 1914-16 Endurance expedition with powerful Antarctic photos.B．It celebrates the 100th anniversary of the great explorer Ernest Shackleton’s birth. C．It consists of vivid photographs, artefacts, and documentaries of Ernest Shackleton.D．It is created by Frank Hurley, who witnessed Shackleton’s heroic acts with his own eyes.10. Which of the following is NOT true about Ernest Shackleton according to the passage? A．He was the leader of a heroic exploration to the South pole, who died from a heart attack off shore.B．He saved the crew members of the sunken Endurance by travelling to raise the alarmin a tiny boat.C．He is universally recognised as the greatest Antarctic explorer who has enjoyed enduring fame.D．He was inspirational, practical, responsible, sensitive towards his men, but had a strong character.11. What does “Their social fabric had been destroyed. ” in the last paragraph most probably mean?A．What they wore would not be accepted by others upon returning.B．They could no longer socialise with others even if they went back.C．The ship could not keep them together even if they survived.D．They could not function socially as they had when there was shelter.二、七选五阅读Do you want lots of success in school and in your friendship?

But it’s not clear that these benefits come specifically from vitamin C．The Age-Related Eye Disease Study found that a daily supplement containing 500 mg of vitamin C can help slow the progress of macular degeneration, an age-related eye disease that causes vision loss. But we don’t know what benefits, if any, are provided by vitamin C in particular.Many people take vitamin C supplements in unnecessarily high doses to prevent or treat various conditions for which its effectiveness is unproved. The vitamin C supplements have variously been said for staving off sunburn and improving the appearance of wrinkles. None of these benefits have been confirmed in scientific studies.Perhaps the best-known and most widely promoted use of high-dose(高剂量)vitamin C is to prevent or treat the common cold. Most of the evidence shows that high-dose vitamin C will, at most, shorten a cold by one day. In ordinary circumstances, vitamin C has no preventive value, although a few studies have reported a 50% reduced risk of developing colds among people taking vitamin C in extreme circumstances-for example, skiers, marathon runners, and soldiers working in extreme conditions.The recommended vitamin C dosage per day for healthy women is 75 mg per day. For adults, the highest safe daily intake is likely to be 2, 000 mg per day. Vitamin C is water-soluble, so any amount more than you need will not be stored in the body. It’s safe in almost any amount from foods, and supplements in recommended amounts are also regarded as safe for most people. In some people, high doses-more than, say, 2, 000 or 3, 000 mg per day-can cause a variety of symptoms. People with kidney conditions should take no more than 1, 000 mg a day.；4. What can we learn about vitamin C in the first paragraph?A．It can be of better effect in higher doses.B．It can be a cure for age-related eye disease.C．It can help slow the progress of some illness.D．It can reduce the risks of the mouth cancer.；5. What function does vitamin C have intreating the common cold?A．It can help people save plenty of money.B．It can stop soldiers from catching a cold.C．It may reduce a cold by one day at most.D．It may prevent the common cold efficiently.；6. How much Vitamin C are healthy women advised to take per day?A．75 mg.B．500 mg.C．2, 000 mg.D．3, 000mg.；7. Where is this text probably taken from?A．An exam paper.B．A travel journal.C．An art guidebook.D．A science magazine.CThis year will have been the warmest in the UK, the Met Office has said. Although for many people the record from the year that attracted the most attention was that the summer heatwave reached 40. 3℃, the organization said that more significant was a figure 30 degrees lower-the average temperature over the course of the year.Although the exact temperature will need to be confirmed in the new year, the Met Office predicted that 2022 is going to exceed (超过)the previous record for the warmest annual average, which was 9. 88C in 2014. Apart from this month, every other month in the UK in 2022 was warmer than average. New Ye ar’s Day 2022 was the warmest on record, exceeding 16℃ in North Wales. Dr. Mark McCarthy, head of the National Climate Information Centre, said: “While many people will remember the summer’s extreme heat, what hurts people most, especially the elderly, this year is the relatively consistent heat through the year. ” Although this summer was the fourth warmest on record, it was the first in which the temperature exceeded 40℃.McCarthy said that we can expect to see increasingly warmer summers as a consequenc e of climate change. “The warm year is in line with the impacts we expect as a result of human-related climate change, ”he said. “Although it doesn’t mean every year will be the warmest on record, climate change continues to increase the chances of increas ingly warm years over the coming decades. ”Rebecca Newsom, head of politics at Greenpeace UK, said: “These aren’t the kind of records you want to be breaking. Record-breaking investment in the renewable technologies will get us out of this mess.At present though, Britain is ready for rain, with forecasters warning of difficult driving conditions caused by wet weather over the next few days. Although temperatures will stay mild for much of the UK, the Met Office warned that the rainfall will hit England and Wales this Saturday and Sunday.；8. What will make this year special in the UK?A．The most visitors will be attracted.B．The warmest year will take place.C．The biggest success will be achieved.D．The highest temperature will be 30℃.；9. What can be inferred from Paragraph 2?A．Every month in the UK was warmer than average.B．Next summer may be the first summer to exceed 40℃.C．Many elderly men may go to hospital for the high heat.D．New Year’s Day was the warmest on record in England.；10.

I have, however, struggled to think of an answer. Yes, we do have our own national dishes. 12Fish and chips, as you could guess, is made up of battered fish and chips. It is often accompanied by mushy peas (豌豆糊), which consists of peas mashed up to form a thick paste. The majority of British people really do love this dish but it is not something that we would eat, say, on a weekly basis. 13 British people associate this dish with the seaside and it’s something that will usually be eaten on a day trip there.14 This is made up of roast meat, usually chicken or beef, accompanied by roast vegetables and a meat sauce. It is usually eaten on a Sunday, perhaps for a special family dinner.Although we do have our traditional dishes, we do not eat these on a daily basis. On a daily basis many British people will eat rice or pasta dished. 15 You can see this by looking at the range of international foods in the supermarket or at the va riety of different restaurants you can find on our high streets.16 However, perhaps unlike other countries, we tend to prefer to cook recipes influenced by other cuisine.A．We eat them as the seasons change.B．But how much do we actually eat them?C．In conclusion, we do have our national dishes.D．Another favourite British dish is the roast dinner.E．Our diet has been greatly influenced by other countries.F．It’s also not usually something that you would cook at home.G．You’ll be served a traditional dish if you get invited for dinner at a British family’s home.三、完形填空The public library is one of the greatest inventions humankind has ever imagined and actually made happen. Libraries are a (an) 17 , quiet place where all people can hang out and read, without having to 18 anyone anything. Apart from being a place that is full of 19 to borrow, libraries are something that offers 20 and warmth. A post on Twitter celebrating the wonderfulness of libraries 21 this point perfectly.“Today a woman with developmental disabilities came into the library, and she was 22 ,” wrote a Twitter user. “She didn’t 23 her address, but her phone number was in her pocket on a piece of paper with Elmo on it. She kept saying, ‘The library is a safe place.’We called and her guardians (监护人) came right over. It seemed that they were not worried at all. Apparently this happens pretty 24 . They even stayed long enough for her to 25 some new books and Sesame Street DVDs. The library is a safe place indeed.”The post 26 others to share their own stories of libraries being safe places for them, and it’s enough to 27 even the hardest of hearts. For people who grew up in dysfunctional (功能失调的) homes, the library can be a safe heaven of calm and kindness. For people lacking financial means, the library is a space that provides free education and free entertainment, as well as a free indoor place to go. This is the reason why 28 people grouped to libraries when they have nowhere else on earth---the only place that doesn’t 29 money. We cannot understate Literal lifesavers.

2023届高三英语晚自习限时训练【3月30日晚，限时：不超过65-70分钟】一、阅读理解（一）Located in the tropical forests in Xishuangbanna, southwest China’s Yunnan province, the Asian Elephant Breeding and Rescue Center (AEBRC) is dedicated to giving careful and effective protection to wild elephants.Though the jungles provide rich sources of food and water for the elephants, they can also pose a threat to them if they become ill or injured, making it difficult for them to survive in the wild.In August 2015, a baby elephant that was less than one month old was abandoned by her herd at the d oorway of a farmer’s house in Simiao, Pu’er city. Vets from the AEBRC came and took the animal to their center for treatment. She was found to have intra-abdominal infections and heart failure. She was also at risk of blood poisoning.The baby elephant finally recovered after proper treatment by the keepers at the center. However, without the presence of her mother, she became malnourished (营养不良) due to a lack of breast milk. At that time, she weighed only 76 kilograms, much smaller than an average newborn elephant. The vets decided to feed her goat milk, and as she was born in the Chinese Year of the Goat, the elephant was named Yang Niu (“Yang” is Chinese for goat, and Niu means girl). The elephant is now about 6 years old, 1.8 meters tall and weighs 1.3 tonnes.Currently, there are 11 rescued Asian elephants living at the center and being cared for by 27 keepers, who spend more than 10 hours with them each day. Thanks to these efforts, the population of Asian wild elephants in the province has reached 300 from 150 over the past 30 years.The local government has designated (指派) a place as a source of food for the elephants so that they do less damage to villagers’ crops while looking for food. They’ve also monitored the elephants using technologies such as drones to keep track of their activities and prevent encounters between villagers and the elephants. The local government has also purchased commercial insurance for residents to compensate them if the elephants attack them.；1. What can be a threat to elephants’ survival according to the text?A．Lack of food sources. B．Illegal hunting.C．Physical problems. D．Destruction of forests.；2. What does the example of a baby elephant stress?A．The recovery of Yang Niu.B．The efforts made by keepers.C．The risks facing baby elephants.D．The importance of mother elephants.；3. What does the author mainly talk about in Paragraph 5?A．The number of elephants endangered.B．The urgency of rescuing wild elephants.C．A steady growth of elephant population.D．A rising trend of animal overprotection.；4. Why has the government designated a place for elephants?A．To keep track of their activities.B．To prevent them from damaging crops.C．To save them the trouble of looking for food.D．To ensure the growth of the elephant population.（二）No one can resist the temptation (诱惑) of snacks. But at the same time, you may be underestimating how many calories a snack contains. What would happen if you had a bag of crisps (炸薯片) a day? Eating an extra packet of crisps a day could lead to a weight gain of 6. 35 kg after a year, The Times reported.People underestimate the number of calories in their snacks, with experts warning that eating a bag of crisps every day could lead to a stone of weight gain in a year. A survey of around 2 ,000 adults found that about three quarters underestimated the impact of what a small reduction could have. One in ten believed that cutting 200 calories a day would not affect weight. At the same time, many people didn’t seem to know exactly how many calories were in their snacks. When it came to snacks, people struggled, with 95 percent guessing that half a sharing bag of tortilla chips had 214 calories on average, almost half the true figure of 447.Can’t we resist buying snacks? The food environment is to blame. Even though we all know snacking is bad for our health, we can’t help but fill our shopping carts with snacks.Don’t always blame yourself for poor self- control, and supermarket shelves also have to carry this “pot” half.Hugo Harper, head of Nesta’s health team, said the pressure to resist high-calorie snacks should not be put on consumers and that our food environment needed. to be changed, He said,“Our environment has a real impact on what we eat, from advertisements and supermarket promotions to what ‘s available in our local corner shops.Hugo added,“If we had fewer cues to snacks, or were pushed to buy fewer high calorie snacks, we should be able to see real change.”New rules coming into force next month will restrict promotions on foods high in fat, sugar and salt in big shops.；5. What does the author intend to do in paragraph 1?A．List some reasons. B．Introduce the topic.C．Put up an argument. D．Raise a question.；6. What can we know from the survey?A．One in ten people cut 200 calories a day.B．Many people knew how many snacks they ate.C．No one knew the calories the snacks contained.D．Most people lacked the awareness of snacks’ impact.；7. What may cause people to buy more snacks according to the text?A．The food environment. B．Living conditions. C．Consumption ability. D．Supermarket management.；8. Which of the following may be the best title for the text?A．A packet of crisps contains many caloriesB．People can resist the temptation of snacksC．The harm of snacks is beyond your imaginationD．2,000 adults got involved in a consumption survey二、七选五阅读Have you had a talk with someone, and think you are paying attention to him or her, only to realize shortly afterwards that you can’t remember what he said? Oh, perhaps you fail to focus while he is speaking and miss the message that he is trying to deliver. 9 : TVs, radios, traffic noises, telephones, laptops and so on which can make it difficult to listen with our full attention.But how can we listen more effectively? 10 . Professor Jon Kabat-Zinn said, “It’s time for mindful listening to come in. Mindfulness means paying attention in a particular way, with a purpose, at the present moment and non-judgmentally.”11 ? Jon Kabat-Zinn describes three key elements of mindful listening that we can use to improve our listening skills.First of all, be present. When we listen mindfully, our focus should be on the person we are listening to without distractions. 12 . By doing so, we can understand a situation from someone else’s point of view. After all, we often see the world through our own experiences. Finally, listen to our own cues. Our cues are the thoughts, feelings and physical reactions that we have when we feel anxious or angry, and they can hold back ideas and perspe ctives that we’re uncomfortable with. Mindful listening can help us to be more aware of our cues. 13 .In conclusion, the rule is straightforward: simply “Listen”! Listen carefully and attentively. Pay full attention to the other person, and don’t l et other thoughts, like what we are going to say next, distract us.A．Then think in others’ shoesB．Researchers seem to have got itC．How can we deal with mindful listeningD．Modem life is actually full of distractionsE．But how can we apply mindful listening to our lifeF．Next, reflect on the experience you’ve gone throughG．Besides, it allows us to choose not to let them ruin communication三、语法填空阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

A study in 2019 found that the possibility of terrible events like Hurricane Maria hitting Puerto Rico is now almost five times higher due to climate change.The storms were similar in many ways but had their own features. Maria was a Category (类别) 4 hurricane whose speed was up to 155 mph, while Fiona, a Category 1 storm when it landed Puerto Rico, was gentler, with winds of up to 85 mph, which later increased to 115 mph as the storm progressed through the island.And yet, the heavy rain caused by Fiona brought Puerto Rico to its knees. According to the data by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the slow moving storms brought 15.80 inches of rain over a 5-day period, slightly more than Maria at 14.72 inchesThis confirms another long-held thought that, with climate change, horrible storms will not only become more common but also wetter.That’s because the increase in temperatures is leading to more loss of water from the sea and warmer air can hold more water vapor (水蒸气). The average temperature all over the world has already increased by nearly 1.2℃ due to climate change and for each 1℃ of warming, the air’s ability to hold water is thought to increase by about 7%. The latest research suggests that the increase may be three times higher, at 21%.；4. What was a direct cause of more storms in Puerto RicoA．Loss of forests. B．Puerto Rico’s location.C．Human activity. D．Climate change.；5. Compared with Maria, what’s the feature of Fiona progressing through Puerto RicoA．It brought less rain. B．It moved a bit slower.C．It caused a longer power cut. D．It brought more deaths.；6. What do the figures in the last paragraph showA．Rainfall increases with temperature rising.B．Puerto Rico is a place raining all the time.C．Storms are common in Puerto Rico.D．Slower storms cause more damage.；7. What’s the best title for the textA．Puerto Rico: Survival of PeopleB．Puerto Rico: Frequent FloodsC．Climate Change: Wetter Puerto RicoD．Climate Change: Disasters on Their Way to Puerto RicoCSheneman, a 33-year-old artist, was first diagnosed with diabetes(糖尿病) around five years ago, and she says it was a wake-up call. Since then, health has become a huge part of her life.What she realized while battling this condition, though, is that a lot of people weren’t aware of what she went through on a daily basis. “Which is crazy to think about because there are so many diabetics out there,” she said. So, Sheneman came up with an art project that would offer a deep understanding of what diabetics go through.On April 1, she started her journey, a 470-mile walk, from her college town of Cincinnati, Ohio, and her plan is to make it to her hometown of Memphis, Tennessee, by the end of the month.Throughout this journey, people will be able to watch her glucose(葡萄糖) levels through an app that’s connected to her glucose monitor, the Dexcom G6. The monitor provides real-time alerts when her glucose levels vary too high or low.This journey is more than just showing people how physically difficult this walk is. “I want them to understand what it looks like to be diabetic and constantly checking and making sure that you’re eating the right things,” she said, adding that “just something as simple as stress can raise your blood sugar.”Sheneman was told by health professionals to do something simple, like walking every day. However, Sheneman, who grew up backpacking, wanted to test the limits of what was possible. “I think it’s important to understand that being a diabetic is not necessarily limiting you,” she said. “There’s just the most difficult part that you have to get over.”8. Why did Sheneman start the art projectA．To raise people’s awareness of diabetes. B．To raise money for all the diabetics.C．To advertise for her hometown. D．To get sympathy for herself.9. What should Sheneman pay special attention to during the journey A．The reactions and concerns of others. B．The app connected to the Dexcom G6.C．The variation of her glucose levels. D．The physical difficulty the walk causes.10. Which of the following best describes the life of a diabetic like ShenemanA．Colorful. B．Cautious.C．Artistic. D．Adventurous.11. What message does Sheneman seem to convey in the last paragraph A．Sport helps gain confidence in fighting diseases.B．We don’t have to follow the doctor’s advice.C．Nothing can stop one achieving their goals.D．Our path in life will not always be smooth.二、七选五阅读We know that choosing a college major can be very tough. But have no fear! Your choice of major will not lock you into a specific career for the rest of your life. Here’s what you need to know about college majors before you choose.What is a major12 Beyond general college requirements, you’ll also take a group of courses in a subject of your choosing such as Chemistry, Literature, or Political Science.How important is my majorThe major you choose will neither predict nor guarantee your future. Many graduates find jobs that have nothing to do with what they studied in college. If you intend to earn a professional degree after college, you will probably need certain courses. 13 .When do I choose a majorThis varies widely across schools and programs. 14 . Others require that you decide upon a major by the time that you set foot inside your first class.15Definitely. One of the most exciting aspects of college life is that it introduces you to new subjects and arouses new passions. However,keep this in mind: every major has necessary coursework. If you change your major late in the game, it may take more than the traditional four years to earn a degree.What are minors and double majorsIf one field of study doesn’t satisfy your intellectual appetite, consider a minor. A minor is similar to a major in that it’s an area of academic concentration. 16 A double major provides you with an understanding or two academic fields. It allows you to become familiar with two sets of values and views while it also requires you to fulfill two sets of requirements.A．Can I change my mindB．Is my major time-consumingC．It’s your specialized area of study in college.D．Most students find one major is more than enough.E．Some schools may give you one year or more to decide.F．The only difference is that it doesn’t require as many classes. G．Many future science doctors major in non-science related fields.三、完形填空The year 2020 was a hard year.

She mailed some packages and sent others to the doorsteps of those who were 24 to her home secretly. In order not to be 25 , she even dressed up herself in black and wore a mask so if people had 26 on doors, they wouldn't know it was her.All the effort to remain anonymous didn't 27 much of the time because Wybenga's 28 was recognized by some friends.

高三英语晚自习限时训练【阅读理解+七选五+语法填空+应用文写作+读后续写】一、阅读理解AChester is one of the best cities in the UK. As soon as you arrive in Chester you will appreciate the city’s unique atmosphere and sense of history. Founded by the Romans over 2,000 years ago, much of the Roman influence remains and Chester’s city walls ar e the most complete in Britain. Combined with history and heritage(遗产), Chester is a dynamic city full of bars, pubs, clubs, hotels and restaurants for you to discover, tempting you to visit again and again.Travelling to Chester?Chester is easily accessible by many means of transport — whether you are travelling by rail, car, bus or plane. Please check our route planner below to help you plan your journey to Chester. Onceyou arrive in the city there are numerous car parks; however, during rush hours the easiest way to travel in Chester city centre is via park and ride facilities, which are parking lots with public transportation.Hotels?From bed & breakfasts to the luxury of Chester’s only five star hotel, Chester has all covered. Whether your trip is for business or pleasure your room is just a click away!Sightseeing and Tours?One of the best ways to see Chester is by a guided tour and you have a variety to choose from. Whether you choose the traditional guided walk, to be guid ed around Chester’s historical landmarksby bus or to take a boat down the River Dee, you will sure enjoy the delights of Chester.1. What can we know about Chester from the first paragraph?A．It is a newly built city.B．It is the best city in the UK.C．It is rich in the deep culture and modern touch.D．Many of its city walls were completed by British people.2. What is the most convenient way to get around Chester city centre during rush hours?A．By bus. B．By bicycle.C．By rail. D．By taxi.3. What had you better do to have a better understanding of Chester?A．Choose a bus tour. B．Join a guided tour.C．Take a traditional walk. D．Swim down the river.BWalk into any waiting area and you will see people of all ages on the phone. It is rare to see people sitting and simply thinking while waiting for the next part of the day or night. We have also observed people playing with their mobile phones while having dinner with others or in the presenceof their families. It seems that everyone is experiencing FOMO (fear of missing out) or a strong addiction to electronic devices.Why do adults, middle school students, and even young children turn to electronics while waiting?A recent study by Hatano et al. (2022) found that in different cultures people underestimate how enjoyable and attractive simply thinking might be. In a series of studies on university students in both Japan and the United Kingdom, the participants rated their level of expected enjoyment and engagement in simply thinking and then rated their actual level of enjoyment and participation in thinking after the waiting period. During the waiting period, the participants only had the option to think. They were not allowed to take electronics into the waiting area. The participants were not necessarily happy about thinking. Instead, they underestimated the benefits related to thinking and thought that thinking was aversive before the waiting period, which only allowed thinking without electronic products. After this waiting period, they admitted that thinking was more interesting and easier than expected.Thinking can include problem-solving, goal-setting, and a variety of other creative tasks. These outcomes can be extremely productive and satisfying. Perhaps it is time for parents and educators to teach chil dren about the importance of paying attention to one’s thoughts. We need to be better role models and put down our own phones when there is an opportunity to simply wait and think. We need to provide these opportunities for both ourselves and our children.；4. What’s the purpose of the author describing the scene about people’s using electronics?A．To introduce the importance of electronics.B．To tell what bad influences electronics have.C．To voice his views on thinking while waiting.D．To explain why we should have better ways of communication.；5. What does the underlined word “aversive” in paragraph 2 mean?A．Satisfactory. B．Boring. C．Worried. D．Meaningful.；6. What should parents and educators do according to the text?A．Provide opportunities for children.B．Pick up the phones while waiting.C．Underestimate the benefits of thinking.D．Tell children about the significance of thinking.；7. Which can be a suitable title for the text?A．Why should we put our phones down?B．How can electronic products affect us?C．How do we think freely by using phones?D．Why does thinking while waiting make people smart?CIn the past 30 years, the non-profit organization Friends of Trees planted trees along the streets of Portland, Oregon. Now, a new study shows that each tree planted was connected with significant reductions in non-accidental and cardiovascular (心血管的) mortality (死亡率).Evidence pointing to a connection between exposure to nature and lower mortality is obvious. Between 1990 and 2019, Friends of Trees planted 49,246 street trees. The research team looked at the number of trees planted in a given area in the past 5, 10 or 15 years. They connected this information with mortality due to cardiovascular, respiratory (呼吸的) or non-accidental causes in that same area, using data from the Oregon Health Authority. The results showed that in neighborhoods in which more trees had been planted, mortality rates were lower. This connection was significant for cardiovascular and non-accidental mortality, particularly for males and people over the age of 65.Furthermore, the connection got stronger as trees aged and grew: The reduction in mortality rate connected with trees planted 11 to 15 years before was double that observed with trees planted in the past 1 to 5 years. This means that older trees are connected with larger decreases in mortality, and that protecting existing grown trees may be particularly important for public health. This study doesn’t provide a direct opinion into how trees improv e health. However, the result that larger trees have a greater health effect than smaller ones is telling, because larger trees are better at absorbing air pollution, moderating temperatures, and reducing noise.“We observed the effect both in green and l ess green neighborhoods, which suggests that street tree planting benefits both,” said Geoffrey H. Donovan, first author of the study. “Be-sides, the benefits of tree planting greatly outweigh (大于) the cost. Our results provide an important evidence-base f or clear measures (e. g. planting trees) to increase the lifetime of urban people.”；8. How long did it take Friends of Trees to plant 49,246 street trees?A．5 years. B．10 years. C．15 years. D．30 years.；9. What do we know about the study from paragraph 3?A．Women gain no benefit from trees.B．Tree planting can cure respiratory diseases.C．Older trees contribute more to public health.D．Newly planted trees can better improve public health.；10. What does Donovan suggest doing?A．Protecting trees in forests. B．Planting more street trees.C．Joining Friends of Trees. D．Getting more benefits from nature.；11. How does the author mainly develop the topic of the text?A．By listing numbers. B．By stating results.C．By describing processes. D．By raising questions.二、七选五阅读Is it time to ditch sugar?It’s no secret that sugar can cause issues if you’re indulging (放任) in a little too much of the sweet stuff. Still, most Americans are eating too much sugar. The harmful effects it can have on your physical health are well studied. 12 .Sugar can affect your moodYou probably turn to a doughnut (甜甜圈) or soda for an extra boost during a long day. Yet sugar may not be such a positive pick-me-up after all. Recent research indicates that sugary treats have no positive effect on mood. 13 .One study published in 2017 found that consuming a diet high in sugar can increase the chances of mood disorders. A more recent 2019 study found that regular consumption of saturated fats (饱和脂肪) and added sugars were related to higher feelings of anxiety in adults over age 60.14It’s hard to avoid reaching for comfort foods, especially after a difficult day. But the cycle of consuming sugar to manage your emotions may only make your feelings of sadness, tiredness, or hopelessness worse. Multiple studies have found a link between diets high in sugar and depression.15 . These can lead to depression and may even increase the long-term risk of developing a mental health disorder in some people.Sugar destroys your brain powerEmerging research has found that diets high in sugar can damage cognitive functioning, even in the absence of extreme weight gain or too much energy intake. A 2015 study found that consuming high levels of sugar-sweetened drinks made neurocognitive functions like decision making and memory worse. 16 . But a more recent study found that healthy volunteers in their 20s scored worse on memory tests and had poorer appetite control after just 7 days of eating a diet high in saturated fat and added sugars.Although more studies are needed to solidify the effects on mental health of sugar consumption, it’s important to consider how diet can affect your well-being.A．Sugar can weaken your ability to deal with stressB．Granted, the research was done on ratsC．Overconsumption of sugar triggers imbalances in certain brain chemicalsD．Sugar can increase your risk for developing depressionE．In fact, sugar may have the opposite effect over timeF．However, the effect on mental health is worth taking a second lookG．If you’re dying for sweets, here’s what to eat instead三、语法填空阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。

Tabor and his wife,Elizabeth McCourt, better known as ―Baby Doe‖. Their history is fast becoming one of the legends of the Old West.Horace Austin Warner Tabor was a school teacher in Vermont. Then he moved west to the small Colorado mining camp known as California Gulch, which he later renamed Leadville when he became its leading citizen. ―Great deposits of lead are sure to be found here.‖ he said.As it turned out, it was silver, not lead, that was to make Leadville’s fortune and wealth. Tabor knew little about mining himself, so he opened a general store, which sold everything from boots to salt, flour, and tobacco. It was his custom to ―grubstake‖ pr ospective miners, in other words, to supply them with food and supplies, or ―grub‖, while they looked for ore（矿石）, in return for which he would get a share in the mine if one was discovered. He did this for a number of years, but no one that he aided ever found anything of value.Finally one day in the year 1878, so the story goes, two miners came in and asked for ―grub‖. Tabor had decided to quit supplying it because he had lost too much money that way. These were persistent, however, and Tabor was too bus y to argue with them. ―Oh help yourself. One more time won’t make any difference,‖ He said and went on selling shoes and hats to other customers. The two miners took $17 worth of supplies, in return for which they gave Tabor a one-third interest in their findings. They picked a barren place on the mountain side and began to dig. After nine days they struck a rich vein of silver. Tabor bought the shares of the other two men, and so the mine belonged to him alone. This mine, known as the ―Pittsburgh Mine,‖ ma de $1,300,000 for Tabor in return for his $17 investment.Later Tabor bought the Matchless Mine on another barren hillside just outside the town for $117,000. This turned out to be even more fabulous than the Pittsburgh, yielding $35,000 worth of silver per day at one time. Leadville grew. Tabor became its first mayor, and later became lieutenant governor of the state.36. Leadville got its name for the following reasons EXCEPT that________.A. Tabor became its leading citizenB. great deposits of lead is expected to be found thereC. it could bring good fortune to TaborD. it was renamed37. The underlined word ―grubstake‖ in Paragraph 3 means________A. to supply miners with food and suppliesB. to open a general storeC. to do one’s contribution to the development of the mineD. to supply miners with food and supplies and in return get a share in the mine, if one was discovered.38. We can infer that Tabor’s life career is ________A. purely luckyB. based on his managing theory of ―grubstake‖C. through the help from his wifeD. because he planned well and accomplished targets step by step39. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A. Tabor’s Life.B. A legend of the Old WestC. Lead Makes Leadville’s FortuneD. The Best InvestmentBPupils remember more and behave better when 3D images are usedin lessons, research suggests. They are quicker to learn and absorb newconcepts, and display higher levels of concentration.Professor Anne Bamford, of the University of the Arts, London,studied the effectiveness of 3D content in 15 schools across sevencountries, including the UK. Pupils in 3D classes could remember more than those in the 2D classes after four weeks, improving test scores by an average 17 percent compared with eight percent for 2D lessons. They gave more detailed answers to the tasks and were more likely to think in 3D, using hand gestures and mime (模仿动作) to answer the test questions successfully.The teachers commented that the pupils in the 3D groups haddeeper understanding, increased attention span, more motivation andhigher engagement in the lessons.Children are used to 3D with the rise of computer games that use thetechnology—90 percent of those in the study had seen a 3D film.Schools would need 3D-enabled projectors（投影仪）, laptops with goodpicture capabilities, 3D software and glasses for children to introduceanimations (动作) into classrooms.But Danny Nicholson, an educationist, said the technology would be impractical to use in schools and could be costly. He said, ―While I think the idea of 3D technology is very interesting, I worry that 3D is a bit of an expensive gimmick (小玩意儿). There are a few cases where a true 3D image might help, but most of the time, good 2D models that can be moved , would be just so effective.‖In Colorado, the US, one school district is already in the process of having 1,000 3D projectors fixed in classrooms. And the University of Caledonia, which carries out scientific research into the Lake Tabon Basin, has used 3D presentations with Grade Six pupils. Those who watched the 3D presentations were more engaged and reported a general increase in their interest in science compared with students who watched the 2D version.40. Danny Nicholson tends to think that .A. many pupils prefer 2D modelsB. 3D is a bit expensive for some schoolsC. true 3D images would not help in classesD. 3D technology has a bright future in classes41. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. 3D classes will soon be given in one school district in Colorado.B. Teachers will use the 3D technology through specific training.C. Many pupils are now more interested in science than before.D. 3D technology will replace 2D models in the future.42. What is the text mainly about?A. 2D models are always more effective than 3D images.B. The differences between 3D and 2D images.C. How schools can make full use of 3D technology.D. Pupils behave better when 3D images are used in classes.CNorthern Lights TourLocated in the middle of the northern lights belt, Tromso can offer some of the highest levels of northern lights activity on earth. Perhaps Tromso is the world's best place for a Northern Lights Tour.Join one of our Northern Lights Holidays this winter. It could become one of the greatest experiences in your life.DESTINATION Troms county, Norway.PRICE $450 per personWHEN 2th September until 31st March.PICK-UP Each evening at 6 PM pitside your hotel.DROP-OFF Earliest at 12 AM. When we have a sighting we often stay out later, at no extra cost.SIZE OF GROUP Maximum 8 participants is recommended and normal, but not absolute. A small group allows more freedom in terms of chasing the northern lights.INCLUDED- Transportation each day in a comfortable car- A meal each day- All necessary equipment such as snowshoes, flashlight, water-filled bottle, woolen underwear, a war, hat, warm shoes, warm stockings, and reindeer skin to lie on, if needed.- A guide who will do anything necessary to find the northern lights.EXCITING CHASEA Northern Lights Holiday means an intense and exciting chase – to the coast or deep into the wild, perhaps even to the Finnish border. Each day on a Northern Lights Tour we contact meteorologists shortly before departure to get accurate information. In order to find out where we will have best chances to see the northern lights.WE GUARANTEE A GREA T TRIPThe northern lights are unpredictable, but we guarantee that we will do everything to find it. Patience is a keyword on Northern Lights Tour.ECO-TOURISMWe offer ecologically sustainable and responsible tours. Travelling in small groups is an essential part of the ecotourism concept, as small groups have lesser impact on nature and will not disturb the wildlife unnecessarily.43. A small group is preferred for the following reasons EXCEPT that _______.A. a small group is free to run after the northern lightsB. a small group has less effect on natureC. a small group can save the travel costD. a small group will not disturb wildlife44. The underlined word ―it‖ refers to ―________‖.A. the northern lights tourB. patienceC. equipmentD. the northern light45. We can infer that ________.A. if tourists stay out late, they have to pay moreB. every tourist group is not sure to see the northern lightsC. every tourist group get the money back if they don’t see the northern lightsD. the northern lights can be seen every day from 20th September to 31st March46. The passage is most likely to be taken from a(n) ________.A. advertisementB. news reportC. science textbookD. tourist brochureDIn the case of mobile phones, change is everything. Recent research indicates that the mobile phone is changing not only our culture, but our very bodies as well．First, let's talk about culture. The difference between the mobile phone and its parent, the fixed-line phone, is that a mobile number corresponds to a person, while a landline goes to a place. If you call my mobile, you get me. If you call my fixed-line phone, you get whoever answers it．This has several implications（含义）. The most common one, however, and perhaps the thing that has changed our culture f orever, is the ―meeting‖ influence. People no longer need to make firm plans about when and where to meet. Twenty years ago, a Friday night would need to be arranged in advance. You needed enough time to allow everyone to get from their place of work to the first meeting place. Now，however, a night out can be arranged on the run. It is no longer ―see you there at 8‖，but "text me around 8 and we'll see where we all are."Texting changes people as well. In their paper, ―Insights into the Social and Psycho logical Effects of SMS Text Messaging", two British researchers distinguished between two types of mobile phone users: the ―talkers‖ and the ―texters‖－those who prefer voice to text messages and those who prefer text to voice.They found that the mobile phone's individuality and privacy gave texters the ability to express a whole new outer personality. Texters were likely to report that their family would be surprised if they were to read their texts. This suggests that texting allowed texters to present a self-image that differed from the one familiar to those who knew them well．Another scientist wrote of the changes that mobiles have brought to body language. There are two kinds that people use while speaking on the phone. There is the ―speakeasy‖: the he ad is held high, in a self-confident way, chatting away. And there is the ―spacemaker‖: these people focus on themselves and keep out other people.Who can blame them? Phone meetings get cancelled or reformed and camera- phones intrude（侵入）on people's privacy. So, it is understandable if your mobile makes you nervous. But perhaps you needn't worry so much. After all, it is good to talk.47. According to the two British researchers, the social and psychological effects are mostly likely to be seen on ________.A. talkersB. the ―speakeasy‖C. the ―spacemaker‖D. texters48. We can infer from the passage that the texts sent by texters are________.A. quite revealingB. well writtenC. unacceptable by othersD. shocking to others49. According to the passage, who is afraid of being heard while talking on the mobile?A. TalkersB. The ―speakeasy‖C. The ―spacemaker‖D. Texters50. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A. The SMS EffectB. Cultural Implications of Mobile Phone UseC. Changes in the Use of the MobileD. Body Language and the Mobile Phone四、任务型阅读(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)Scientists, doctors and mental health professionals have been studying the connection between colors and mood for years. Many now believe that colors can not only bring about emotional reactions, but can also correct mood. Colors behave in three basic ways: active, passive and neutral (中和的).Active colors are warm colors, including yellow, orange and red. These colors bring confidence. Warm colors can also bring cheerful attitudes. Yellows and golden colors work well in offices, kitchens and study areas. Reds heat up a room. Passive colors or cool colors make people calm, quiet and satisfied. Bedrooms, private areas and bathrooms are great places for blues and greens. Beige, gray and white are thought of as neutral colors. They help to put the focus on other colors or serve to tone down colors that might otherwise be overpowering on their own.You can easily change the look or feel of a room by making good use of different colors. Mixing and matching colors is an excellent way to balance color and emotion, and provide a welcoming feel for guests.To create a feeling of warmth and comfort in a room, use bright, warm colors like yellow, orange and red. These colors are good choices for rooms that appear cool due to limited sunlight. Yellow adds cheerfulness to dull rooms. You can add yellows to rooms which are not closely related to happy thoughts, such as kitchens and laundry room. In rooms where there's plenty of sunshine, cool colors can provide a calming environment. Sage greens and sky blues are perfect for bedrooms, playrooms and activity areas. Neutral colors, such as pale gray, white and beige, send a peaceful message to your brain. It's not a coincidence that most doctor's offices, coffee shops and mental health centers are decorated in neutrals.To make your wall color choices better, pick out furniture that will provide a visual contrast.

But some are moving into their own places as social norms (规范) develop.When Alan, a civil servant willing to challenge and reform this conventional stereotype (陈规), decided to move out of his family home in Singapore, it still took the 27-year-old a month to talk about the topic with his parents. He feared they wouldn’t understand. After all, Alan’s home was a pleasant place. The family’s three-bedroom condominium (公寓) wasn’t far from the city-state’s central business district. There was homemade dinner on the table each night, and his laundry was always donefor him. “There wasn’t a push factor, just pull factors,” he says. “I’d lived with my parents my whole life, so I just wanted to experience what it’s like being by myself, you know?”In the West, leaving home is just another milestone in adulthood. Yet in most Asian societies, things are different. Culturally, moving out is sometimes considered as showing disrespect to your parents, which makes it even challenging and praiseworthy. In Singapore, living at home until marriage is a common practice; an estimated 97% of unmarried individuals lived with their parents in 2013.While the trend is in part driven by deep-rooted ideas of filial piety (孝道), it’s also linked to government policies on accommodation for young people. Most Singaporeans live in public housing units, apartments funded by the state that are known as HDBs. About 90% of those who live in HDBs own their home.Those who can’t buy HDBs can rent via the private property market — but costs are much higher. “These cost restrictions,” says Dr Chua, a professor of sociology, “effectively keep most young, unmarried people living at home with their parents.”Yet Alan, who now rents a flat in Hougang with two friends from junior college, is among the courageous young pioneers resisting the long-time cultural norm. These commendable young people are deciding that the price of the freedom to organize their own life is worth it and stepping out of their home.；4. What can we know from the second and third paragraphs?A．The East and the West are very different in most aspects.B．Alan decided to live separately mainly due to some objective reasons.C．The majority of single young people followed social customs in living in 2013. D．In the East, it is culturally acceptable for the young to live separately from the elderly.；5. What mainly causes most single young people to live with their parents in Singapore?A．Their parents’ expectations.B．Their personal wish.C．The home environment. D．The traditional culture and housing prices.；6. What is the author’s attitude towards the young Singaporeans like Alan moving out? A．Confused. B．Positive. C．Indifferent. D．Doubtful.；7. What is the best title for the text?A．Young Singaporeans’ Relationship with Their ParentsB．Young Singaporeans Fighting Against Old Social CustomsC．Young Singaporeans Striking Out Their Way to IndependenceD．Young Singaporeans’ New Way to Solve High Housing PricesCEradajere Oleita thinks she may have a partial solution for two of our country’s continuous problems: garbage and poverty. It’s called the Chip Bag Project. The 26-year-old student and environmentalist from Detroit is asking a favor of local snacklovers: Rather than throw your empty chip bags into the trash, donate them so she can turn them into sleeping bags for the homeless.Chip eaters drop off their empty bags from Doritos, Lay’s, and other favorites at two locations in Detroit: a print shop and a clothing store, wher e Oleita and her volunteer helpers collect them. After they clean the chip bags in soapy hot water, they cut them open, lay them flat, and iron them together. They use materials from old coats to line the insides. It takes about four hours to make a sleepi ng bag, and each takes around 150 to 300 chip bags, depending on whether they’re single-serve or family size. The result is a sleeping bag that is “not allowed water to enter, not heavy, and not difficult to carry around,” Oleita said. Since its start in 2020, the Chip Bag Project has collected more than 800, 000 chip bags and created 110 sleeping bags since last December.Sure, it would be simpler to raise the money to buy new sleeping bags. But that’s only half the goal for Oleita — whose family moved to the United States from Nigeria a decade ago with the hope of achieving a better life－and her fellow volunteers. “We are devoted to making an impact not only socially, but environmentally,” she says.And, of course, there’s the symbolism of saving bags that would otherwise land in the trash and using them to help the homeless. It’s a powerful reminder that environmental injustice and poverty often go hand in hand. As Oleita stated, “I think it’s time to show connections between all of these issues.”8. What’s the aim of the Chip Bag Project?A．To draw the snack lover’s attention to the homeless.B．To change the chip bags into sleeping bags for the homeless.C．To recycle the garbage to remove the poverty for the country.D．To help solve the environmental pollution caused by chip bags.9. What can we learn from Para. 2?A．Chip eaters can place the empty bags wherever they want.B．Eradajere Oleita collects the empty chip bags independently.C．The sleeping bags are tough but not easy to carry around.D．The procedure of making a sleeping bag needs masses of chip bags.10. What does the words mean by Oleita in Para. 3?A．The environmental issues should be stressed.B．Poverty should be lifted out of the homeless.C．The Chip Bag Project will impact the society and environment.D．The Chip Bag Project will be devoted to achieving a better life.11. What can be inferred from the text?A．Chip bags are always used to help the homeless.B．Chip bags are only useful in addressing the environmental problems.C．The issues of environment and poverty will be stressed in the future. D．Environmental injustice and poverty are disconnected with each other.二、七选五阅读It is very important to keep fit and stay healthy. A lot of people fail to believethe good that daily exercise does to health and only begin to do so when they suffer from health problems. 12Regular(经常的)exercise helps you keep in good shape. Maybe, you are one ofthe many overweight people struggling with problems of body shape, yet you do not want to do anything about that. Sometimes you see very nice clothes, but they don’tfit you because of your body size. 13Doing exercise keeps you thinking quickly at all times. It’s a perfect way of developing the strength of your mind. 14 Besides, there is a reason why most athletes are usually happy.
