Here are some things you should try before you are 18.★Learn to swimSeriously, this is so important that it can save your life. If you can’t swim well, you won’t be able to dowater sports like waterskiing, surfing and diving. Even taking a boat trip will be dangerous for you. Make sure you do it.★Try at least one kind of team sportsBeing a good team player is an important skill in life. You can’t just think of yourself, but have to work well with other people. Other advantages of team sports like basketball, football and baseball are that they keep you fit and healthy, and they are also great fun. Teams usually have a good social life too—you’ll go to lots of parties and make many friends.★Collect somethingOne of the best hobbies for under-18s is collecting things. You could collect kinds of stamps, or you could collect things that make you remember what you have done, like cinema tickets for films you have seen or letters from friends. The best way to collect is to have a special album to put your collection in and to write what each thing means to you. That way you won’t forget.1. The most important reason for learning to swim is that ________.A. you might feel wellB. it can make you healthyC. you might easily do lots of thingsD. it can save your life2. The writer tells us that one of the best hobbies is to ________ .A. collect somethingB. do some water sportsC. send letters to your friendsD. play basketball with your friends23. The passage is mainly about ________before you are 18.A. good habits to keepB. skills to haveC. things to doD. sports to playBTeens who have good, supportive relationships with their teachers enjoy better healthas adults, according to research published by an American research center.“This research suggests that improving students' relationships with teachers could have positive and long-lasting effects beyond just academic success," said Jinho Kim, a professor atKoreaUniversityand author of the study."Itcould also bring about healthimplicationsin the long run.”Previous research has suggested that teens' social relationships might be linked to health outcomes in adulthood. However, it is not clear whether the link between teen relationships and lifetime health is causal(因果的)-it could be that other factors, such as different family backgrounds, might contribute to both relationship problems in adolescence and to poor health in adulthood. Also, most research has focused on teens' relationships with their peers(同龄人), rather than on their relationships with teachers.To explore those questions further, Kim analyzed data on nearly 20,000 participants from the Add Health study, a national study in theU.S.that followed participants from seventh grade into early adulthood. The participant pool included more than 3,400 pairs of siblings(兄弟姐妹). As teens, participants answered questions, like “How often have you had trouble getting along with other students and your teachers?" As adults, participants were asked about their physical and mental health.Kim found that participants who had reported better relationships with both their peers and teachers in middle and high school also reported better physical and mental health in their mid-20s. However, when he controlled for family background by looking at pairs of siblings together, only the link between good teacher relationships and adult health remained significant.The results suggest teacher relationships are more important than previously realized and that schools should invest in training teachers on how to build warm and supportive relationships with their students. "This is not something that most teachers receive much training in," Kim said, “but it should be.”4. What does the underlined word “implications" in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. Recipes.B. Habits.C. Benefits.D. Risks.5. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?A. Poor health in adolescence.B. Limitations of the previous research.C. Teens' relationships with their peers.D. Factors affecting health in adulthood.6. What does Kim's research show?A. Good adult health depends on teens' good teachers.B. Good family background promises long-term adult health.C. Healthy peer relationships leads to students' academic success.D. Positive student-teacher relationship helps students' adult health.7. Where does this text probably come from?A. A health magazine.B. A medical report.C. A term paper.D. A family survey.COur house was across the street from a big hospital so we rented our spare upstairs room to outpatients (门诊病人). One evening, there was a knock at the door. I opened it to see a truly sick-looking man.His face looked terrible — it was swollen and red. Yet his voice was pleasant. He told me that he came for treatment and that he’d been hunting for a spare room since noon, but no one would give him one. “I guess it’s my face...”For a moment, I hesitated, but his next words convinced me: “I will sleep in this rocking chair on the porch. My bus leaves early in the morning.”The old man had a huge heart inside his tiny body. He told me that he fished for a living to support his daughter, his daughter’s five children and her disabled husband.He didn’t complain while telling me his story. He was grateful that no pain accompanied his disease, which was seemingly a form of skin cancer.The next morning, he said, “Can I come back and stay next time I need treatment?” I told him he was welcome to come again.On his next trip, as a gift, he brought a big fish and some large oysters (牡蛎). In the years that he stayed with us, there was never a time that he did not bring us gifts like these.My neighbour warned me that I could lose potential renters after the old man left.Maybe we did lose renters once or twice. But if they had known him, perhaps their illnesses would have been easier to bear. I know our family will always be grateful to have known him. From him, we learned what it was to accept the bad without complaint and the good with gratitude.8. Why did the author let the old man stay after hesitation?A. The old man looks terrible and frightening.B. The old man is pitifully undemanding.C. The old man could’t rent room from others.D. The old man talked happily with the author.9. Which of the following shows the old man had a big heart?A.He had a large family to raise.B. He could sleep in a rocking chair.C. He did’t care about his disease.D. He wanted to come back and stay the next time.10. What can we learn about the author from the last two paragraphs?A. He was grateful for the neighbour’s warning.B. He and his neighbor are good friends.C. He truly appreciated the old man.D. He lost potential renters happily.11. What can be a suitable title for the text ?A. Kindness makes the world beautiful.B. Happiness is around thecorner.C. No pains, No gains.D. Live positively.DUnderstanding the link between a clean environment and human life is not a new concept. In fact, it was noticed as early as ancient Rome. Today we see how green living has infiluenced our everyday lives. There is a growing community of people who embrace a zero waste lifestyle and make changes to the way they live to reduce their carbon footprint.Living a zero waste lifestyle means doing one’s best to achieve the aim of not sending anything to a landfill. People who adopt this lifestyle ultimately cut down on their waste by reducing what they need and want. They reuse what they own, sending few things to be recycled.Many people who adopt the zero waste lifestyle claim to be frustrated by the many harmful chemical substances found in beauty and cleaning products. They also find the uses of disposable items and excessive packaging. For example, how many times have we had to peel away layers of plastic wrap and cardboard before finally taking out the item which we had bought? Instead of buying pre-packed food and goods, those who identify with the zero waste philosophy tend to shop in stores that allow them to make purchases and bring their own cloth bags and glass jars to store their purchases.Many people may have the misconception that it is easier to live a zero waste lifestyle in the West.Nevertheless, Malaysian environmental journalist, Ms. Aurora Tin, has proven that a zero waste lifestyle is possible even in the Asian context. Instead of going to the supermarket to buy pre-packaged foods, Ms. Tin now visits the wet market and brings her own bags for vegetables. She has even stopped using store-bought toothpaste and makes her own toothpaste from coconut oil and baking soda. This lifestyle may be too big a change for the average person, but we could follow her suit to make gradual changes to our own lives.12. Which of the following is a zero waste lifestyle?A. Bringing a resuable container to take away food.B. Choosing appliances that cost less money.C. Turning off a device to stop using power.D. Classifying the garbage before throwing it away.13. What may disappoint a person who adopts a zero waste lifestyle?A. Recycable carboard.B. Excessive packaging.C. Glass jars to store purchases.D. Natural substances in cleaning products.14. What is the main idea of the last paragraph?A. How do people live a zero waste lifestyle.B. Why Ms. Tin chooses to live a zero waste lifestyle..C. We can also practice a zero waste lifestyle in Asia.D. It is easy to live a zero waste lifestyle in the West.15. What is the best title of the passage?A. Living a zero waste lifestyle.B. Going green ismore than a fashion.C. A zero waste lifetyle is easy to achieve.D. Making environmentally-conscious decisions.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

China Satellite Navigation OfficeBMasks that helped save lives during the Covid-19 pandemic(疫情)are proving a deadly risk for wildlife, with birds and sea creatures trapped in many facial coverings in animal habitats.Single-use masks have been found on the ground, waterways and beaches worldwide since countries required(heir use in public places to slow the pandemic's spread. Worn once, the thin protective materials can take hundreds of years to break down. "Face masks aren't going away any time soon-but when we throw them away, these items can harm the environment and the animals who share our planet," Ashley from anima! rights group PETA said.Monkeys have been found playing with used masks in the hills outsideMalaysia's capitalKuala Lumpur. And in an incident inBritain, a seagull was saved inChelmsfordafter its legs got caught in an abandoned mask for a week.However, the biggest influence is in the water. More than 1.5 billion masks made their way into the world's oceans last year, accounting for around 6200 extra tons of ocean plastic pollution, according to environmental group OceansAsia. “Masks and gloves are particularlyproblematicfor sea creatures," says George Leonard, chief scientist from NGO. "When those plastics break down in the environment, they form smaller and smaller particles (颗粒).Those particles then enter the food chain and influence the entire ecosystem,“ he added.Campaigners have urged people to deal with masks properly after using them.

Punish those who wear single-use masks.D. Put used masks in the recycling box.CChinese paleontologists (古生物学家) have determined that, about 47 million years ago, subtropical forests once existed on the high-altitude Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.The conclusion, which appears in a paper published on Tuesday, was drawn based on the large number of fossils found in theBaingoinBasinat an altitude of nearly 5,000 meters during the second comprehensive scientific expedition to the plateau.A joint team from theXishuangbannaTropicalBotanical Gardenconducted the research on the fossils. By combining the findings and models, the team recreated the climate and altitude that existed 47 million years ago, showing that the central plateau had an altitude of just 1,500 meters and an annual average temperature of 19℃, says Su Tao, a researcher from the tropical botanical garden and first author of the paper.“It was covered by thick forest and was rich in water and grass. It is fair tocall it the ‘ShangriLa’ of ancient times,” Su adds.The researchers have also found over 70 plant fossils, the majority of which are most closely related to plant life in today's subtropical or tropical regions.“This is enough to show that the central part of the now high-altitude, freezing Qinghai-Tibet Plateau had flourishing subtropical plants 47 million years ago,” Su says.The findings provide new evidence for the study of the evolutionary history of biodiversity and the evolutionof the plateau's landscape, according to Zhou Zhekun, the paper's corresponding author and a researcher at the tropical botanical garden.Chinalaunched the second comprehensive scientific expedition to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in June 2017, 40 years after the first. Lasting up to 10 years, the expedition will conduct a series of studies focusing on the plateau's glaciers, its biodiversity and ecological changes, and will also monitor the changes in climate.8. How did the paper come to the conclusion?A. Through the observation of the Baingoin basin.B. Through the fossils found in scientific expedition.C. Through the drawing of a large number of fossils.D. Through the adventure on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau.9. What can be inferred according to Su Tao?A. The average altitude of the plateau was 1,500 meters.B. “Shangrila”means a place with abundant water and grass.C. The flourishing subtropical plants have covered the plateau.D. The fossils found by researchers are tropical or subtropical plants now.10. Where might the passage come from?A. The Times.B. The Wall Street Journal.C. Chinese National Geography.D. The Economist.11. What is the purpose of the passage?A. To instruct.B. To educate.C. To persuade.D. To inform.DIt was very cold and I had been watching a homeless man make himself comfortable in a “shelter” on the river bank. His “shelter” was a tarpaulin (油布)tied to rocks to keep the wind from blowing it away. He had been living there for over a month. I never saw him with warm clothing or food. I knew what I wanted to do.When I told my parents what I wanted to do they werealarmed. They said I could be putting myself at risk, taking a box to a homeless person at night! But I knew, in my deep heart, that I would be safe.I got a box. My parents watched as I added warm gloves, a heavy blanket ... into the box until it was full! Then, I put a Christmas card on top. It said, “Even though we hardly know each other, I want to wish you a Merry Christmas!” I put ten one-dollar bills inside it as well.My father insisted he went there with me as it was 10 pm on Christmas Eve. I said he could drive me but he had to stay in the car. He agreed.I took the box and walked towards his “house”. I called, “Sir, I have a Christmas box for you!”“Go away!” he shouted.“Sir,” I repeated.“Go away!” he shouted.“Why?” I asked him.He walked over and I expected to see an angry face. Instead I saw two of the most beautiful, gentle, blue eyes I have ever seen.“Merry Christmas!” I said.“Why are you doing this?” he asked.“Because you matter to me,” I said. With that I gave him the box.Tears came to his eyes and he thanked me. I got back to the car and watched him carry the box like it was filled with gold. I didn’t want to embarrass (使困窘) him by watching him any more so Dad and I left.12. The underlined word “alarmed” can best be replaced by _____.A. pleasedB. worriedC. disappointedD. surprised13.

天津南开中学2020年高三英语模拟真题及答案做为一名高三学生,模拟真题是我们备战高考的重要辅助工具之一。
本文将为大家提供天津南开中学2020年高三英语模拟真题及答案。
Directions: In this section, you are going to read a passage with ten statements attached to it. Each statement contains information given in oneof the paragraphs. Identify the paragraph from which the information is derived. You may choose a paragraph more than once. Each paragraph is marked with a letter. Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 1.【A】The journey to America was hard for the immigrants on my mother's side. When they arrived at Ellis Island, the gateway for immigrants from Europe, there was a long line. Each person had a little brass tag around his neck with his name and address on it. There were buttons to push, like in a doorbell (门铃), to signal if he was sick or well. Men went in one line, women in another. There were hundreds of people going, and they were told to keep in line by some doctors, sitting at a high platform. My mother’s parents were told to go to the left. They went to the left because they were sick. Then their own names were called out. They were told to hurry, because they were going to miss the train. This was because they didn'tcome through the door fast enough! Imagine this: they were so sick that they had to go to the hospital, and then were pushed on a big train! Later on,when Americans asked them what country they came from, they scratchedtheir heads-- they had to think hard-- because of the Irish background, and because they had themselves gone to the train station in Dublin. Which, I must say, is not on the way to New York, but several miles further and trip took hours.【B】In another direction, at the same time, my father's parents were leaving Russia. Immigration was hard too for them. They had to hurry. The family, in Morocco (洛哥), because they said it was so far away, would keep sending tickets for them, but they must come right away! The old couple stood on the deck (甲板), waving and weeping. They never saw each other again. I asked my father once why they couldn't go back and Russia wasn't one of the bad countries. My father said once you leave your country, no matter how much you cry and wish, that's it, you can never go back.【C】When I was a little girl, I thought Ellis Island was heaven. It was where miracles happened. Immigrants had to walk up lots of stairs to get to heaven. Lots of them fell and broke their heads on the landing. Forty per cent of the people who went had to stay and go home.【D】It was closed in 1952. Over twenty million tickets were sold for the price of one. In the eighty years it was in business, twelve million of the immigrants were put in hospitals. Forty thousand of them died. Some were sick, but most of them got sick on Ellis Island. The doctors sprayed (灭菌液)with some kind of soap. It didn't do any good. When the workers asked them to spray that's all they did, put a dirty thumb on the squirt hole (喷孔). The immigrants, who had always before been so scared of doctors, ran away from them. Finally they passed some kind of law. That was after my mother's parents were well.【E】There was a scabby (发痂的) man in a top hat-- the postman. He was paid five cents to bring a letter to the new candy store. It seems so silly even to say that. The candy store always received the box and used to put it on the counter with the lid open. It must have been difficult for my mother to put the box back into the counter. Then she opened the lid and took a look at some letters with handwriting. The writing wasn't clear if father was married or not, married or not. If not married, she would wear black, if married-- well, she did have a new dress to wear to her father's funeral.【F】You can't even begin to understand if you were never an immigrant. Because it wasn't just the passage. It was what had led to the passage. It was that order should have had something to do with the just of things. It was that your own world, from one moment to the next, could be drowning in like a star's forever dimming the sea.1. At Ellis Island, immigrants had to wear a brass tag with their names and addresses.2. My mother's parents got on the wrong train because they came in late.3. Before they left Russia, my father's parents got tickets from the family in Morocco.4. When the workers were spraying with soap, some immigrants ran away from them.5. Over twenty million immigrants came through Ellis Island in eighty years.6. Forty percent of immigrants never got farther than Ellis Island.7. The workers sprayed the immigrants with soap using a dirty thumb.8. The doctors at Ellis Island put twelve million immigrants in hospitals.9. The postman delivered a box of letters to the new candy store.10. After my mother's parents got well, a law was passed to protect immigrants on Ellis Island.参考答案:1. 【A】2. 【A】3. 【B】4. 【D】5. 【D】6. 【C】7. 【D】8. 【D】9. 【E】10. 【D】以上是关于2020年天津南开中学高三英语模拟真题及答案的相关信息。

2019-2020学年下学期英语统练·1一、阅读理解(本大题共20小题,共50.0分)AHow to Drop a Pant Size in a Week Dropping one pant size in seven days is a difficult task,but with dedication,exercise and the right diet,you can make it happen.Increase your water consumption.Thirst is often misinterpreted as hunger,and if you are drinking the right amount of water,you will find it much easier to avoid snacking.Look to drink at around eight or nine glasses of water every day.Lower your calorie count.You can use a calorie calculator to determine how much you need to take in to maintain or lose weight If you take in fewer calories than you burn each day,you will lose weight as a result.As a rule,an average-sized woman needs to take in less than 1.300 calories per day for extreme weight loss,as you'll naturally burn around 2,000.Exact measurements differ based on age,height,weight and activity level.Cut the junk food.Chips,soda and candy seem harmless if taken as snacks,but can seriously affect your weight loss,Limit yourself to one or two snacks per day and switch your usual snack foods for baby carrots,apples and grapes.Break up your meals.If you want to lose weight,try eating four or five small meals per day instead of two or three large ones.This makes it easier for your body to process what you are consuming.Divide your required calories by the number of meals you'll be eating to determine how large each meal should be Space your meals out two or three hours apart-try meals at breakfast,mid-morning,lunch,afternoon and dinner.Doing intense aerobic (需氧的)exercise.You have to encourage your body to bum calories if you want to drop pounds and inches.Running is by far the fastest calorie burner,with the potential for 986 calories per hour.If you're unable to run,use an elliptical machine (椭圆机),jump rope,or participate in a high-impact aerobics class.1.When you are thirsty,you may mistake it as a sign ______ .A. to drink somethingB. to eat somethingC. to sleep for a whileD. to do some exercise2.If you want to lose weight,you need to ______ .A. burn fewer caloriesB. eat as much as usualC. eat less than you burnD. measure your weight first3.Of the following,which might be beneficial for losing weight?______A. Fruits.B. Hamburgers.C. Steak.D. Ice cream.4.Why are you advised to eat four or five small meals each day?______A. Because you are always hungry.B. Because it's easier for digestion.C. Because it will keep you occupied.D. Because you need more space.5.Where might this passage come from?______A. A travel guide.B. A science report.C. A medical textbook.D. A health magazine.BBoomerang children who return to live with their parents after university can be good for families,leading to closer,more supportive relationships and increased contact between the generations,a study has found.The findings contradict research published earlier this year showing that returning adult children trigger a significant decline in their parents' quality of life and wellbeing.The young adults taking part in the study were "more positive than might have been expected about moving back home-the shame is reduced as so many of their peers are in the same position,and they acknowledged the benefits of their parents' financial and emotional support.Daughters were happier than sons,often slipping back easily into teenage patterns of behaviour,the study found.Parents on the whole were more uncertain,expressing concern about the likely duration of the arrangement and how to manage it.But they acknowledged that things were different for graduates today,who leave university with huge debts and fewer job opportunities.The families featured in the study were middle-class and tended to view the achievement of adult independence for their children as a "family project".Parents accepted that their children required support as university students and then as graduates returning home,as they tried to find jobs paying enough to enable them to move out and get on the housing ladder."However",the study says,"day-to-day tensions about the prospects of achieving different dimensions of independence,which in a few extreme cases came close to conflict,characterised the experience of a majority of parents and a little over half the graduates".Areas of disagreement included chores,money and social life.While parents were keen to help,they also wanted different relationships from those they had with their own parents,and continuing to support their adult children allowed them to remain close.6.What is the finding of the previous research?______A. Boomerang children made their parents happier.B. The parents were looking forward to their children's return.C. The parents' quality of life became worse than before.D. Boomerang children never did any housework.7.The underlined word "trigger" in Paragraph 2 may be best replaced by ______ .A. causeB. defeatC. ariseD. allow8.What is the attitude of the college graduates towards returning home?______A. They are ashamed of turning to their parents for help.B. They are glad that they could come back.C. They are doubtful about whether they should return.D. They are proud to be independent from the family.9.What can be inferred as the reason for the "boomerang children" phenomenon?______A. The children want to keep in closer touch with their parents.B. The parents are willing to provide support to their children.C. It is harder for the children to secure a satisfying job.D. There is more house work needed to be done by the children.10.What is the side effect of the boomerang children phenomenon?______A. Both parents and children enjoy a more harmonious relationship.B. Neither parents nor children want to do the chores at home.C. Not only parents but also children want to be independent.D. There are occasional quarrels between parents and children.CA famous Anglican Church stands in a quiet corner of Dunedin in New Zealand's South Island.Built in 1865,it is the city's oldest church still in use.Countless couples have gathered here to marry.It's where morning tears are shared,friendships formed and comfort given during times of loss.As with many churches,its walls are graced with a collection of beautiful stained-glass windows.Known as the"John Allen window",one window portrays the short life of a local man,John Allen,who died in 1915 in the Gallipoli campaign in Turkey.John was the son of Sir James Allen,who as Minister of Defense,helped plan and administer New Zealand's World War I strategy,which saw 100,000 troops sent to fight.With the war over and his son dead,Sir James chose to install a window in the church,with which the Allen family had strong ties.Divided into two parts,one depicts (描绘)St.George,the patron saint (守护神)of soldiers,while the other has an angel of peace,along with the words at the bottom,"John Hugh All Gallipoli,6th June,1915".Two trees with local birds on the branches can be seen and a kiwi walks at the bottom- reminders that John was a lover of birds."There are many war memorials in the church," says the church."However the 'John Allen window' stands out;it touches people because of the beautiful design,the New Zealand birds and because John's story,of a life so full of promise ending tragically in the war,reflects the lives and stories of so many others involved in World War I."11.What does the word"portrays"in paragraph 2 most probably mean?______A. Starts.B. Changes.C. Treasures.D. Represents.12.Sir James Allen built the"John Allen window"to ______ .A. celebrate the end of World War IB. honor the troops in the Gallipoli campaignC. remember his son's sacrifice to the countryD. show the family's close ties with the church13.What might be the main theme of the pictures on the window?______A. Freedom and equality.B. Peace and war.C. Human and nature.D. Marriage and family.14.What might be the best title for the text ______ .A. A Brave SoldierB. Window on a LifeC. Cruelty of the WarD. A Grand ChurchDWe spend a great amount of time listening to music.Most college students listen to music at least three or four times a week,and more than 50 percent of them go to at least one concert peryear.According to new research,we may be born liking music,because human beings are born to find certain combinations of sounds attrative.For example,young chidren can recognize a familiar Song even when its key is changed.Similarly,they respond with more emotions to their mothers' singing than to their mothers' speech.Careful analysis of mothers' chid-dircted songs indicates that each mother's songs remain stable from one"performance"to the next,and this may encourage children's engagement with the songs.Research with adults suggests that music catches our attention by activating(激活)brain pathways that are most suited to processing music than to processing other kinds of sound.Specifically,music appreciation relies on the auditory cortex(听觉皮层)on the right side of the brain,which is specialized to process sound that characterizes music-in contrast to the left auditory cortex,which processes the stop-and-start bursts of sound that characterize speech.Although some Psychologists remain skeptical about whether music may have powerful effects on our thinking,a number of studies have shown that listening to music can increase people's spatial reasoning abilities Furthermore,It is clear that music can greatly influence our emotions.Personally significant music activates areas of the brain associated with pleasure and reward,the same areas that are activated by sex and good food.Researchers do not agree about how humans' abilties to process and enjoy music have come into being.Anyway,the next time you enjoy listening to a piece of music,remember that the most complex pieces of audio equipment are the ones between your headphones.15.Which of the following might belong to the"certain combinations of sounds"in paragraph2?______A. A song.B. A debateC. A quarrel.D. A dialogue.16.It can be learned from paragraph 4 that ______ .A. no doubt music can increase people's thinking abilityB. music simply gives people positive emotionsC. only music can give people pure pleasure and rewardD. music has a great influence on human beings17.According to the passage,the most complex pieces of audio equipment lie ______ .A. at a collegeB. in a concertC. in the brainD. in the headphoneEA great number of species make their home in the vast waters of the Atlantic Ocean.Although the entire ocean makes up an ecosystem,many smaller habitats are found within,including an open-water habitat off the coast of the Northern Atlantic Ocean known as the Sargasso Sea.Sargassum is an alga(海藻)that floats in masses that can continue for miles.The waters of the Gulf Stream push the water in a northward move into this area.This constant move and varying temperature support the accumulation of the brown-colored seaweed.The Sargasso Sea is so enormous that one method of information collection has not been enough for scientists to obtain an accurate picture of what takes place within this ecosystem.Researchers have needed to employ several methods of sampling.Methods such as dragging nets over the surface of the water and videotaping beneath areas of sargassum have served scientists well.Information collected has shown that the Gulf Stream pushes brown algae from open water into the Sargasso Sea area,creating a diverse floating habitat in an area that would otherwise not support that wildlife.In the most recent study of the sargassum community off the shores of North Carolina,eighty-one fish species were documented as using the area as a microhabitat.This is an increase from previous studies.The types of fish found here are both commercially and environmentally important.The South Atlantic Fishery Management Council is working to regulate the harvesting of sargassum.The Council hopes to have the area classified as an Essential Fish Habitat.Which would afford it certain protections.Further research needs to be done before scientists understand how to best protect the Sargasso Sea as well as understand how it goes about supporting so many important types of wildlife.18.The author uses "enormous" in paragraph 2 to stress that ______ .A. the Atlantic Ocean is really amazing in terms of its size and areaB. what the researchers do is highly respected by scientific communityC. the research work is complex because a large area must be coveredD. a large amount of money for the Sargasso Sea research is needed19.It can be inferred from the phrase"needed to be done"in paragraph 4 that the author thinks______ .A. the Sargasso ecosystem is worth our attention and needs more studyB. the scientific community has ignored this complex ecosystemC. the Sargasso Sea is becoming a problem and needs removingD. new methods for researching the ecosystem must be found instantly20.The text is mainly about ______ .A. diversity of wildlife in the Atlantic OceanB. different habitats of sea animalsC. methods of information collectionD. the Sargasso Sea as an entire ecosystem二、单选题(本大题共15小题,共15.0分)21.---Shall we put off the experiment till next week?--- .I don't think our teacher will be happy with it.()A. Never mindB. Sure,go aheadC. Yes,better notD.

A magazine.BScientists often compare coral reefs(珊瑚礁) to underwater rainforests, yet unlike the leafy plant base of a forest, corals are animals. The soft creatures are naturally half-transparent and get their brilliant color1 from algae(藻类) living inside them. When corals experience stress from hot temperatures or pollution, theyhaltthe interdependent relationship with algae, typically pushing them out and turning white. Corals are still alive when they are white, but they're at risk and many eventually die, turning dark brown.Scientists around the world are looking for means to protect and maybe increase corals. One common option is to create more protected areas — essentially national parks in the ocean. Beyond nature preserves, some conservationists are looking to more hands-on methods. One research center in the Florida Keys is exploring a form of natural selection to keep corals remaining. The reef system in the Keys has been hit hard by climate change and pollution, which is especially tough, because corals there help support fisheries worth $ 100 million every year.To keep the wild ecosystem alive, Erinn Muller, the center's director, and her team are harvesting samples of the corals that survived the environmental stress naturally, keeping them to make them reproduce, and then reattaching them to the reef. They have 46,000 corals on plastic frames under the sea. So far, the center has regrown over 70,000 corals from five different species on damaged reefs.In The Bahamas, Ross Cunning, a research biologist at Chicago's Shedd Aquarium, focuses on corals with genes that could make them natural candidates for restoration projects. He published a study of two Bahamian reefs, one that survived an extreme 2015 heat wave, and one that didn't. "We think their ability to deal with these higher temperatures is built into their genes," says Cunning. There's evidence of corals evolving more quickly to resist rapidly warming climate. The big question scientists need investigate, adds Gunning, is how much more heat corals can adapt to.4. What does the underlined word "halt" in the first paragraph mean?A. End.B. Develop.C. Strengthen.D. Weaken.5. What do Muller and her team do to save corals?A. Restore the damaged reefs.B. Grow corals by hand underwater.C. Create more protected areas.D. Move corals to unpolluted areas.6. What do Gunning's words suggest?A. Many corals have been genetically improved.B. Cooling down the waters is key to rescuing corals.C. Reasons for corals surviving heat waves are shocking.D. The highest temperature corals can survive is unclear.7. Which can be a suitable title for the text?A. Relationship between corals and algaeB. Efforts made to save coralsC. Impact of climate warming on coralsD. Survival crisis faced by coral reefsCEver wondered if dogs can learn new words? Yes, say researchers as they have found that talented dogs may have the ability to grasp new words after hearing them only four times.While previous evidence seems to show that most dogs do not learn words, unless eventually very well trained, a few individuals have shown some extraordinary abilities, according to a study published in the journal Scientific Reports.“We wanted to know under which conditions the gifted dogs may learn novel words” said researcher xuekw Claudia Fugazza from theEötvösLorándUniversityinHungary. For the study, the team involved two gifted dogs, Whisky and Vicky Nina. The team exposed the dogs to the new words in two different conditions.In the exclusion-based task, presented with seven known toys and one new toy, the dogs were able to select the new toy when presented with a new name. Researchers say this proves that dogs can choose by exclusion when faced with a new word, they selected the only toy which did not have a known name.However, this was not the way they would learn the name of the toy. In fact, when they were presented with one more equally new name to test their ability to recognize the toy by its name, the dogs got totally confused and failed.The other condition, the social one, where the dogs played with their owners who pronounced the name of the toy while playing with the dog, proved to be the successful way to learn the name of the toy, even after hearing it only 4 times. “The rapid learning that we observed seems to equal children’s ability to learn many new words at a fast rate around the age of 18 months,” Fugazza says. “But we do not know whether the learning mechanisms(机制) behind this learning are the same for humans and dogs. ”To test whether most dogs would learn words this way, 20 other dogs were tested in the same condition, but none of them showed any evidence of learning the toy names, confirming that the abilityto learn words rapidly in theabsence of formal training is very rare and is only present in a few gifted dogs.8. What was the purpose of the study published in Scientific Reports?A. To better train dogs’ ability to learn new words.B. To further confirm previous evidence about dogs.C. To prove extraordinary memory abilities of gifted dogs.D. To explore favorable conditions for gifted dogs’ new-word learning.9. How did the dogs react when exposed to two new names in the first condition?A. Slow to understand.B. Quick to learn.C. At a loss.D. In a panic.10. What was found about dogs’ new-word learning in the social condition?A. Learning through playing applied to most dogs.B. The social condition helped dogs learn new words.CDogs’ new-word learning turned out to be less effective.D. Dogs shared similar learning mechanisms with children.11. Which of the following is the best title for the text?A. Gifted Dogs Can Learn New Words Rapidly.B. Dogs Identify Newly-named Toys by Exclusion.C. Dogs Can Acquire Vocabulary through Tons of Training.D. Gifted Dogs Have Similar Learning Abilities to Humans.DMy wife and I recently completed a day-long tour of the Great Wall with Jessie. In addition to being very knowledgeable about the history of theareas that we toured, she spoke excellent English and was able to answer all of our questions. Her driver was very experienced and polite, and we really enjoyed being able to have a customized tour that avoided the tourist traps and forced shopping that seem to be a part of the larger group tours.The attractions themselves were fantastic. I was a little worried that the snowy weather might impact our trip to the Great Wall, but everything went fine, and there weren’t many people out at all that day. I suggest wearing strong shoes—the Great Wall is really a hike. And in snowy or rainy days, the surfaces are pretty slippery (滑的)! Seeing this area in winter was really unique, and the snow made for great pictures. Jessie kept us entertained with stories and facts about the construction of the Wall, and always pointed out great spots for taking pictures. Even though she’s in fantastic shape, she cared about our level of fitness and often stopped to let us catch our breath.When we got back to our hotel, Jessie gave us a great recommendation for dinner and some tips for our planned stops the next day. If I find myself in Beijing in the future, I will certainly be contacting Jessie for more tour opportunities, and I’ve already recommended her to some friends who are visiting the area later in the year. I can’t say enough about how kind and knowledgeable she was, and she really gave us a great tour experience.12. What can we infer about Jessie?A. She is a tour advisor.B. She is a tour guide.C. She is a foreign traveler.D. She is a skilled driver.13. When did the writer visit the Great Wall?A. In spring.B. In summer.C. In autumn.D. In winter.14. What did the writer think of his tour?A. Adventurous.B. Disappointing.C. Satisfactory.D. Improvable.15. What is the probable title for the text?A. A Wonderful Tour Day with JessieB. An Extraordinary Tour CompanyC. The Great Wall, an Excellent AttractionD. Jessie, a Kind and Knowledgeable Guide第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

La Tomatina﹣The World's Biggest Food FightOn the last Wednesday of every August,the Spanish town of Bunol hosts Ea Tomatina﹣the world's largest food fight.A week﹣long celebration leads up to an exciting tomato battle as the highlight of the week's events.The early morning sees the arrival of large trucks with tomatoes﹣official fight﹣starters get things going by casting tomatoes at the crowd.The battle lasts little more than half an hour,in which time around 50,000 kilograms of tomatoes have been thrown at anyone or anything that moves,runs,or fights back.Then everyone heads down to the river to make friends again﹣and for a much﹣needed wash!Melbourne Food and Wine FestivalAustralia's cultural capital has hosted this 20 years,a showcase of the continent's culinary(烹调用的)mastery

the beginning of La Tomatina.40.In which food festival you may meet cooks?A.Melbourne Food and Wine FestivalB.La TomatinaC.Stilton Cheese RollingD.Fiery Foods Festival.In business,there's a speed difference:It's the difference between how important a firm's leaders say speed is to their competitive strategy and how fast the company actually moves.The difference is important regardless of industry and company size.Companies fearful of losing their competitive advantage spend much time and money looking for ways to pick up the speed.In our study of 343businesses,the companies that chose to go,go,go to try to gain an edge ended up with lower sales and operating incomes than those that paused at key moments to make sure they were on the right track.What's more,the firms that"slowed down to speed up"improved their top and bottom lines,averaging 40% higher sales and 52% higher operating incomes over a three﹣﹣year period.How did they disobey the laws of business physics,taking more time than competitors yet performing better?They thought differently about what"slower"and"faster"mean.Firms sometimes fail to understand the difference between operational speed (moving quickly) and strategic speed(reducing the time it takes to deliver value).Simply increasing the speed of production,for example,may be one way to try to reduce the speed difference.But that often leads to reduced value over time,in the form of lower﹣﹣quality products and services.In our study,higher﹣﹣﹣companies with strategic speed always made changes when necessary.They became more open to ideas and discussion.They encouraged new ways of thinking.And they allowed time to look back and learn.By contrast,performance suffered at firms that moved fast all the time,paid too much attention to improving efficiency,stuck to tested methods,didn't develop team spirit among their employees,and had little time thinking about changes.Strategic speed serves as a kind of leadership.Teams that regularly take time to get things right,rather than plough ahead full bore,are more successful in meeting their business goals.That kind of strategy must come from the top.41.What does the underlined part"gain an edge"in Paragraph 2 mean?A.Get an advantageB.Increase the speedC.Reach the limit.D.Set a goal.42.The underlined part"the laws of business physics"in Paragraph 3 means .A.spending more time and performing worseB.spending more time and performing betterC.spending less time and performing worseD.spending less time and performing better43.What can we learn from the text?A.How fast a firm moves depends on how big it is.B.How competitive a firm is depends on what it produces.C.Firms guided by strategic speed take time to make necessary changes.D.Firms guided by operational speed take time to develop necessary team spirit.44.According to the author,what is the key to deciding strategic speed?A.Pausing at key momentsB.The size of companyC.The bossD.The quality of the products45.Which could be the best title for the text?A.Improve quality?Serve better.B.Deliver value?Plough ahead.C.Reduce time?Move faster.D.Need speed?Slow down.46.(10分)My grandma whom we all called Nanny was a solid,first﹣generation,Italian immigrant.She came to this country with her family on a tiny ship during World War I when she was only 8years old.During the trip she survived stormy seas,little food,and an attack by a German U﹣boat.After getting here,her large family worked hard to build a new life in America.They never had much money but were rich in love.One day,when I was about 5or 6years old,my parents and brothers went on a trip.It was just me and Nanny in the house for the weekend.Nanny seemed so happy to be taking care of me all by herself.She made me a special breakfast that first morning.However,all I could do was to complain about how the food was not how Mom always made it.Nanny quietly put down the plate and went into the living room.I followed a minute later and saw that she hadtears in her eyes.It was the first time I had ever seen my strong and proud grandmother cry and I was the one who had caused it.I walked over to Nanny,climbed on her lap,and for the first time in my short life I did something else too.I apologized without being told to and asked Nanny to forgive me.She smiled,rubbed my head,and told me I was a good boy even though I didn't feel like one then.That memory just like my Nanny's love will stay in my heart forever.It is a sign of both strength and wisdom.Asking for forgiveness helps us to learn,to grow,and to love.46.Nanny's family immigrated to America mainly because .A.they suffered starvation in their homelandB.they wanted to start a rich life in the new landC.they tried to get away from the terrible climateD.their country was in war and they needed peace47.The boy complained to Nanny that the food .A.wasn't cooked the way his mom didB.was served a bit later than usualC.was prepared in a special wayD.was just to his parents'taste48.When seeing Nanny crying in the living room,the author felt .A.surprisedB.ashamedC.shockedD.annoyed49.The author mainly wants to tell us that .A.forgiveness can be beneficial to people asking for itB.hardships can make children more indifferentC.grandparents are more tolerant than their grandchildrenD.family ties can sometimes be misused50.What kind of person is Nanny in author's eyes?A.Joyous and jealousB.Hardworking and carefulC.Strong﹣willed and wiseD.Kind and sensitive.Wouldn't it be wonderful to travel to a foreign country without having to worry about the headache of communicating in a different language?In a recent Wall Street Journal article,technology policy expert Alec Ross argued that,within a decade or so,we'll be able to communicate with one another via small earpieces with built﹣in microphones.That's because technological progress is extremely rapid.It's only a matter of time.Indeed,some parents are so convinced that this technology is imminent that they're wondering if their kids should even learn a second language.It's true that an increase in the quantity and accuracy of the data loaded into computers will make them cleverer at translating"No es bueno dormir mucho"as"It's not good to sleep too much."Replacing a word with its equivalent (同义词)in the target language is actually the"easy part"of a translator's job.But even this seems to be a discouraging task for computers.It's so difficult for computers because translation doesn't﹣or shouldn't ﹣involve simply translating words,sentences or paragraphs.Rather,it's about translating meaning.And in order to infer meaning from a specific expression,humans have to interpret a mass of information at the same time.Think about all the related clues that go into understanding an expression:volume,gesture,situation,and even your culture.All are likely to conveyas much meaning as the words you use.Therefore,we should be very skeptical of a machine that is unable to interpret the world around us.If people from different cultures can offend each other without realizing it,how can we expect a machine to do better?Unless engineers actually find a way to breathe a soul into a computer,undoubtedly when it comes to conveying and interpreting meaning using a natural language,a machine will never fully take our place.51.What does the underlined word"imminent"in Paragraph 2probably mean?A.Ready.B.Approaching.C.Helpful.D.Advanced.52.Why is it hard for computers to replace a word with its equivalent?A.Their data is not adequate enough.B.The real meaning of words can vary.C.Their accuracy needs big improvement.D.A soul hasn't been breathed in them.53.What view does the author hold about translation?A.Proper translation can be tough for humans.B.Slight distinctions matter little in translation.C.Some machines will interpret our world properly.D.Cultures deserve more attention than words used.54.What is the best title for the text?A.An Expert's Precise PredictionB.The Complexity of TranslationC.Who Will Be a Better TranslatorD.Will Language Barrier Actually Fall55.What is the author's attitude the modern technology?A.UnclearB.ObjectiveC.OptimisticD.Negative.第三部分:写作第一节:阅读表达阅读短文,按照题目要求用英语回答问题.Some years ago industries had more freedom than they now,and they did not need to be as careful as they must today.They did not need to worry a lot about the safety of the new products that they developed.They took little notice of the health and safety of the people who worked for them.Often new products were dangerous for the people who used them and conditions in the work place had very bad effects on the health of the workers.Of course,sometimes there were real disasters which attracted the attention of governments and which showed the need for changes.Also scientists who were doing research into the health of workers sometimes produced information which governments could not ignore.At such times,there were inquiries into the causes of the disasters or the problems.New safety rules were often introduced as a result of these inquiries; however,the new rules came too late to protect the people who died or who became seriously ill.Today many governments have special departments which protect customers and workers.In the U.S,for example,there is a department which tests new airplanes and gives warnings about possible problems.It also makes the rules that aircraft producers must follow.Another department controls the foods and drugs that companies sell.A third department looks at the places where people work,and then reports any companies that are breaking the laws whichprotect the health and safety of workers.Of course,new government departments and new laws cannot prevent every accident or illness,but they are having some good results.Our work places are safer and cleaner than before.The planes and cars which we use for travel are better.Producers are thinking more about the safety and health of the people who buy and use their products.56.What had bad effects on the health of the workers?(No more than 6words)57.In what ways do the departments protect customers and workers?(No more than 20words)58.Please explain the underlined phrase"took little notice of"in the first paragraph in English.(No more than 5words)59.What is the passage mainly about?(No

According to the National Geographic, the Southern Ocean includes most of the waters surrounding Antarcticaout to 60 degrees south latitude(纬度)."Encircled by the powerfully swift ACC, it is the only ocean to touch three others and to completely embrace a continent rather than being embraced by them," Sylvia Earle, a marine biologist and oceanographer, told the Daily Mail.Those familiar with the Southern Ocean know it's unlike any other. "Anyone who has been there will struggle to explain what's so charming about it, but they'll all agree that the glaciers are bluer, the air colder, the mountains more awful and the landscapes morecaptivatingthan anywhere else you can go," Seth Sykora-Bodie, a marine scientist at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, told National Geographic.National Geographic hopes their revised maps will bring public awareness to the region, thereby encouraging Southern Ocean conservation—but its significance is beyond that."We think it's really important from an educational standpoint, as well as from a map-labeling standpoint, to bring attention to the Southern Ocean as a fifth ocean," Alex Tait, National Geographic Society geographer, told The Post. "So when students learn about parts of the ocean world, they learn it's an interconnected ocean, and they learn there are these regions called oceans that are really important, and there's a distinct one in the icywaters around Antarctica."4. Why is the Southern Ocean different from other oceans?A. It has never been explored before.B. It surrounds the Antarctic all around.C. It is enclosed by the fast-flowing ACC.D.

New Discovery under the SeaCMany Americans experience surprise (or disappointment) when they wake up on Christmas Day. They might be surprised or disappointed by a family member’s actions. They might be happy or unhappy about a Christmas gift. Imagine a child expects to get an Xbox or PlayStation for Christmas. On Christmas morning, they quickly open their gift. Inside is an English grammar book. They might feel disappointed. The Everyday Grammar team would prefer the new English grammar book. But if you are like most young people, you would probably rather have a new video game.Today, we are going to explore those feelings-feelings of surprise and disappointment. In other words, we are going to explore how speakers show that reality was better or worse than their expectations.Many languages use words to express expectation. Speakers also use words to express how events are not happening as expected. This idea is known as “counter expectation”.Do not worry about the term. Just remember that it means that speakers use words to show that reality is countering their expectations.English has many words that serve this purpose. Three of the most common are the words “even”, “still” and “actually”. You will often hear them in informal, everyday speech. Speakers use these words to show disappointment. The pitch of their voice tells you what they mean. Let’s study examples of each word.Speakers often use the word "even” to show disappointment or surprise. Imagine a young child that expects a phone call from a family member-perhaps an uncle or grandparent. The phone call never comes. The child might say the following: “What’s wrong with him? He didn’t even call me on Christmas day.” Americans sometimes use “still” for showing how reality does not quite meet their expectations: “You’re still here? It’s over! Go home. Go!” Another common word that shows surprise or disappointment is “actually”: “I can’t believe it! Uncle Bob actually stole her Christmas gift.”8. What might most young Americans prefer as a Christmas gift according to paragraph 1?A. A newly made video game.B. An English grammar book.C. A new designed school bag.D. A unique jacket from their parents.9. What does the underlined phrase “counter expectation” in paragraph 3 mean?A. Expression of disappointment.B. Something expected to happen.C. The same with one’s expectation.D. A result against what is expected.10. What do the three words “even”, “still” and “actually” have in common?A. They are easy to understand.B. They express disappointment.C. They show delighted feelings.D. They are used most at Christmas.11. What’s the last paragraph mainly about?A. Expectations from loved ones.B. Different uses of the three words.C. Examples of the use of the three words.D. Emotions of disappointment and surprise.DMark Bertram, 46, lost the tips of two fingers at work in 2018 when his hand became trapped in a fan belt. “It's life-changing but it's not life-ending,” he says. “Doing work is harder now. Everything is just a little different.”After two surgeries and occupational therapy, Bertram decided to make light of his condition by asking Eric Catalano, a tattoo (纹身) artist, to create fingernail tattoos. The idea made everyone in the studio laugh—until they saw the final result. “The mood changed,” Catalano recalls from his Eternal Ink Tattoo Studio. “Everything turned from funny to wow.”When Catalano posted a photo of the tattoos, a pair of fingernails that looked so real that no one could believe their eyes, he had no idea the image would eventually be viewed by millions of people around the world.The viral photo pushed Catalano, 40, further into the world of paramedical (辅助医疗的) tattooing. Now people with life-altering scars come from as far away as Ireland to visit his shop. They enter Eternal Ink looking for the artistic healing they saw online. Using flesh-toned (肉色的) inks and a needle, Catalano transforms his clients' view of themselves.Leslie Pollan, 32, a dog breeder in Oxford, was bitten on the face by a puppy in 2014. She underwent countless surgeries to correct a scar on her lip.“Plastic surgery gave me no hope,” she says. “So I looked for other options.” She ultimately traveled six hours to meet with Catalano. He hid Pollan's lip scar, giving her back a piece of her confidence.“ You don't understand until you've been through it,” Pollan says. “It made me have a different look on life.”Catalano performs up to eight reconstructive tattoos. While he charges $100 per regular tattoo, he doesn't charge for paramedical tattoos. “Financially, it doesn't make sense,” Catalano says. “But every time I see that emotion from my customers, I'm 100 percent sure this is something that I can't stop doing.”12. What best describes people's attitude when first hearing of fingernail tattoos?A. Indifferent.B. Ridiculous.C. Confident.D. Surprised.13. What did Catalano do to help Leslie Pollan?A. He drew an artistic puppy.B. He inked scars on her face.C. He created a lip tattoo.D. He performed plastic surgeries on her.14. What can we infer from the passage?A. Cosmetic surgery is of no use.B. Tattoos earn Mark Bertram a good fame.C. Catalano is a kind and generous person.D. Fingernail tattoos are popular around the world.15. What could be the best title for the text?A. A Life-changing EventB. Miracle TattoosC. An Amazing ArtistD. A Promising Business第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

D. World-class.BJanet Fein, aged 84, received her bachelor's degree from the University last week, having waited a long time for her chance to reach that goal.Growing up in the Bronx area ofNew York City, Fein worked at a dress manufacturer after graduating early at the age of 16. After getting married, she spent 18 years staying home with her children. She held several jobs through her life, including 20 years as a secretary at a hospital until her retirement at age 77.Fein has had a full life. But even then, she was not ready to take it easy and rest during a well-earned retirement. She decided to major in sociology because she felt it was “substantial.”Fein took part in a state program that lets people who are 65 and older take free classes at public universities in Texasand kept going to class even as her health conditions worsened. During her studies, it became necessary for her to use a walker to get around and she required oxygen. She also developed knee problems. So, Fein took online classes to finish the last part of her degree requirements.Sheila Rollerson, Fein' scollege advisor, and Carol, the professor told the media that Fein never showed signs of giving up even with all of her difficulties. She would speak up a lot in class and it just made for a more interesting class.Fein has also inspired Renee Brown, one of Fein's caregivers. At 53, Renee plans to begin nursing school to further her career. “Renee, you can do it. If I can do it you can do it, and you will feel so good about it,” Brown remembers what Fein told her.4. What is the second paragraph mainly about?A. Janet Fein's growthB. Janet Fein's aimC. Janet Fein's job experiencesD. Janet Fein's regrets5. What does the underlined phrase “substantial” in paragraph 3 refer to?A. InterestingB. ValuableC. EasyD. Affordable6. What can be learned about Fein according to the passage?A. Fein lived on little money after her retirement.B. Fein had a problem with her arms while at universities.C. The Internet played a role in Fein's university education.D. The good health helped Fein get her bachelor's degree.7. What is Janet Fein like according to the passage?A. Hardworking and humorous.B. Determined and generous.C. Positive and patient.D. Inspiring and perseverant.CThe first patient who died on my watch was an older man with a faulty heart. We tried to slow it down with treatment, but it suddenly stopped beating completely. Later, whenever I would have a case like that one, I found myself second-guessing my clinical management. However, it turns out that thinking twice may actually cause more harm than good.In a working paper, Emory University researchers found that when doctors delivering a baby have a bad result, they are more likely to switch to a different delivery method with the next patient, often unnecessarily and sometimes with worse results.Because doctors make so many decisions that have serious consequences, thefalloutfrom second-guessing appears especially large for us. A 2006 study found that if a patient had a bleed after being prescribed (开药) warfarin, the physician was about 20% less likely to prescribe later patients the blood thinner that prevents strokes (中风). However, if a patient was not on warfarin and had a stroke physicians were still no more likely to prescribe warfarin to their other patients.These findings highlight interesting behavioral patterns in doctors. In the blood-thinner study, doctors were more affected by the act of doing harm (prescribing a blood thinner that ended up hurting doctors were more affected by the act of doing harm(prescribing a blood thinner that ended up hurting a patient) and less affected by letting harm happen (not prescribing a blood thinner and the patient having a stroke). Yet a stroke is often more permanent and damaging than a bleed.But this phenomenon is not unique to medicine. ''Overreaction to Fearsome Risks'' holds true for broader society.For instance, sensational headlines about shark attacks on humans in Florida in 2001 caused a panic and led the state to prohibit shark-feeding expeditions. Yet shark attacks had actually fallen that year and, according to the study, such a change was probably unnecessary given the extremely small risk of such an attack happening.Humans are likely to be influenced by emotional and often irrational (不理性的) thinking when processinginformation, bad events and mistakes. As much as we don't want to cause an unfortunate event to happen again, we need to be aware that a worst situation that can be imagined doesn't necessarily mean we did anything wrong. When we overthink, we fail to rely on thinking based on what we know or have experienced. Instead, we may involuntarily overanalyze and come to the wrong conclusion.I have treated dozens of patients who presented with the same illnesses as my first patient, who died more than a year ago. Instead of second-guessing myself, I trusted my clinical instinct (本能) and stayed the course. Every one of those patients survived. You should trust your instinct in your life, too.8. The first two paragraphs suggest that________.A. bad medical outcomes affect doctorsB delivering babies can be difficult workC. some doctors are not very experiencedD. doctors sometimes make silly mistakes9. In the blood-thinner study, doctors________.A. tend to prescribe less effective medicineB. are more concerned about the patients' safetyC. become less confident in writing a prescriptionD. believe a stroke is more treatable than a bleeding10. What does the underlined word ''fallout'' in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. ResultB. BenefitC. DifferenceD. Absence11. The author will probably agree that________.A. we should not doubt our own decisionsB. our experience will pave way for our futureC. humans are emotional and irrational on the wholeD. instincts don't necessarily lead to wrong directionsDThe cumulative rainfall in Henan province during the four days was the highest since the province has records, the provincial meteorological service said. The rain was heaviest in the provincial capital, Zhengzhou, for a short period on Monday and Tuesday. Northern, western and central parts of Henan also experienced downpours, the service said. Zhengzhou's biggest one-hour precipitation (降水量) —201.9 mmbetween 4 and 5 pm on Tuesday—was also the highest on the Chinese mainland. The previous record was 198.5 mmin the village ofLinzhuang in Zhumadian in August 1975, the National Meteorological Center said. The city's precipitation duringthe four days exceeded that of its average annual precipitation, the center said.Chen Tao, chief forecaster at the National Meteorological Center, said abundant water vapor (水蒸气) brought by Typhoon In-Fa and the province's special geographical features led to Henan's rain. “Partly affected by the typhoon, large amounts of water vapor have been transported to China's inland areas, including Henan,” he said.From Thursday to Monday, rain was forecast to continue in Henan. However, rainfall will gradually subside in Zhengzhou and the province's northern and central regions, though the storms will increase the risk of mountain torrents and other geological disasters. By Monday, lighter rain is forecast for parts of Henan, the provincial weather service said. However, local authorities are still urged to bevigilantand prepare to prevent or cope with flooding and other possible disasters.Predicting such weather events remains a challenge worldwide because it involves many meteorological phenomena, the center said. “The formation of this kind of extreme weather, including rainstorms and high temperatures, is complex,” Chen said. “We still lack effective solutions and methods for such forecasting”, he said. “We are now putting a lot of effort into tackling the difficulty. We believe that as the technology improves, we can better forecast the events.”12. What message does the author mainly want to convey in the first paragraph?A. heavy rain fell in Zhengzhou.B. The rain in Henan lasted four days.C. Zhumadian also suffered the similar heavy rain.D. Henan experienced the biggest rainfall of all time.13. What can be indicated from Chen Tao's words?A. It is not easy to forecast the extreme weather.B The rain of Henan is mainly caused by Typhoon In-Fa.C. The center hasn't put a lot of effort into solving the problem.D. Rainstorms and high temperatures can account for the heavy rain.14. What does the underlined word “vigilant” probably mean?A. Relaxed.B. Alert.C. Reluctant.D. Communicative.15. Where might the text be most probably taken from?A. history book.B. A novel.C. A news report.D. A science magazine.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

One was marked with Chip’s name and a greeting for his Special day, November 5.“So,” when he came running out the door, she said, “You must be Chip!” And he said,“Yes.” She said, “Today’s your birthday?” And he started smiling. Shelley said, “So, let me see if I can find you something for your birthday.”She checked her pocket and surprised him with a gift: a dollar bill and four quarters.On this day, the 42-year-old postwoman made one little boy very happy. “He was very excited,” said his mom, Bonnie. “He came running back in the house just waving his money.” Chip is saving up to buy a Spider-man action figure.“Our family has had money problems since I lost my job. Gestures like that are valuable memories.” Her hope is that Chip and his eight-year-old sister, Bennett, will remember this when they grow up. “Not the ugly that is out there right now, but the good and the kind and the giving.”A photo of a smiling Chip and Shelley next to the mail truck has been shared widely on social media. Shelley said she was just trying to give back, because people are often nice to her eight-year-old son, Joshua.On a recent day, Chip heard the mail truck and rushed out again, this time to deliver an envelope with a thank-you card for his favorite mail carrier. Since that day, the families have kept in contact. Shelley has struggled to find someone who can take care of her son, and Bonnie has agreed to watch him at her home while his mom is on her mail route.4. Why did Chip rush out when he heard the mail truck the first time?A. To thank the postwoman.B. To get a gift box mailed to him.C. To receive birthday wishes from the driver.D.

She offers to deliver the mails for her.B. She often helps drive her mail truck.C. She looks after her son when she is at work.D. She posts pictures of her mail truck on social media.CThe idea came to him when he least expected it. Alvin Irby was at a barbershop when he saw one of his former students sitting in the shop with a bored look on his face. That’s when Irby realized that by pairing barbershops and books, he might be able to inspire young boys to read.Alvin Irby, a former kindergarten and first-grade teacher, knows how important it is for young children to read. He also knows that young boys in particular often don’t have adult male role models who inspire them to read. “Many young boys may literally never see a man reading in school during the years when they’re learning to read because there are so few male elementary school teachers,” Irby toldMashable.That’s where the barbershops come in. Four years ago, Irby launched Barbershop Books as a way to not just get books into the hands of young boys, but also to create community reading spaces in a place where kids go frequently. Since itsinceptionin 2013, the program has created kid-friendly reading spaces in 50 barbershops in 12 states throughout the United States.Irby isn’t the first person to see the connection between barbershops and books and boys. Hair stylist Courtney Holmes, launched a program a few years ago offering free haircuts to kids as long as they read to him while he cuts their hair.That’s the kind of environment that Irby wants to promote with his program. The reading spaces created by Barbershop Books help to spark an interest in books by showing kids that reading is about more than just spelling and vocabulary skills, it’s about making reading a low-stress activity that can help them relax, laugh and have fun.“Our belief is that if we can create positive reading experiences early and often for young boys, then they will choose to read for fun,” Irby noted, adding, “This is really what Barbershop Books is about, getting young boys to say three words: I’m a reader.”8. What happened to Alvin when he was at a barbershop?A. He found it easy for young people to get bored.B. He offered a barbershop to his former student.C. He thought of a way to encourage young readers.D. He realized the importance of reading for young boys.9. What is the function of Barbershop Books?A. To attract more customers who love films.B. To provide free haircuts to book lovers.C. To show the influence of reading on children.D. To create a reading environment fbr children.10. It can be inferred from the passage that ________.A. reading is a low-stress activity that is relaxingB. Barbershop Books is only suitable for young boysC. Irby attaches great importance to school educationD. Barbershop Books can arouse (引起) young people’s interest in reading11. What does the underlined word “inception” in the 3rdparagraph mean?A. discovery.B. success.C. popularity.D. beginning.DImust have always known reading was very important because the first memories I have as a child deal with books. There was not one night that I don’t remember mom reading me a storybook by my bedside. I was extremely inspired by the wonderful way the words sounded.I always wanted to know what my mom was reading. Hearing mom say, “I can’t believe what’s printed in the newspaper this morning,” made me want to grab it out of her hands and read it myself. I wanted to be like my mom and know all of the things she knew. So I carried around a book, and each night, just to be like her, I would pretend to be reading.This is how everyone learned to read. We would start off with sentences, then paragraphs, and then stories. It seemed an unending journey, but even as a six-year-old girl I realized that knowing how to read could open many doors. When mom said, “The C-A-N-D-Y is hidden on the top shelf,” I knew where the candy was. My progress in reading raised my curiosity, and I wanted to know everything. I often found myself telling my mom to drive more slowly, so that I could read all of the road signs we passed.Most of my reading through primary, middle and high school was factual reading. I read for knowledge, andto make A’s on my tests. Sometimes, I would read a novel that was assigned, but I didn’t enjoy this type of reading.I liked facts, things that are concrete. I thought anything abstract left too much room for argument.Now that I’m growing and the world I once knew as being so simple is becoming more complex, I find myself needing a way to escape. By opening a novel, I can leave behind my burdens and enter into a wonderful and mysterious world where I am now a new character. In these worlds I can become anyone. I don’t have to write down what happened or what technique the author was using when he or she wrote this. I just read to relax.We’re taught to read because it’s necessary for much of human understanding. Reading is an important part of my life. Reading satisfies my desire to keep learning. And I’ve found that the possibilities that lie within books are limitless.12. Why did the author want to grab the newspaper out of mom’s hands?A. She wanted mom to read the news to her.B. She couldn’t wait to tear the newspaper apart.C. She couldn’t help but stopmom from reading.D. She was eager to know what had happened.13.
