The stories of Sahara records its authors’ own life in the desert.BWhen I was a boy, our extended immigrant family would sometimes gather at my aunt’s tiny house summer. Relatives from all over the country would come in to visit. The adults would crowd together in the livingroom to talk and catch up on each other’s li ves. And the kids would be sent out into the front yard to play when dinner was slowly cooked for all of us.Those were the days before video games, smart phones, and motorized toys, so we often ended up playing anold game. I remember one of those moments especially. As I was the youngest and smallest of all the kids there, Igot caught first and couldn’t catch anyone else. My brothers and cousins were all too fast for me, and I grew more and more frustrated. I finally fell my face first into the dirt. I got up with tears forming in my eyes. Then I saw oneof my female cousins Susan standing there. She started to run but was going much slower than before. I easilycaught up and seized her. Then she turned to me, smiled, andsaid, I’m it! You’d better run! I ran off laughing with glee while she turned and started to chase others.Now I see how her act of kindness that day saved me from sadness and returned me to joy. It didnthat we hardly ever saw each other. I know we are family and she loves me.In her wonderful book Box of Butterflies, Roma Downey writes, “We are all one, we all belong to each other,Perhaps it is time that we all started to treat each other that way. Perhaps itand we are one big, beautiful family.”is time that we shared our love, our kindness, our laughter, and our joy with everyone without fear. Perhaps it istime to finally and forever bring this world together in one big family reunion.24.

A good deed is invaluable.CPlease take a few seconds and think of your personal biggest goal. Imagine telling someone you meet todaywhat yo u’re going to do. Imagine their congratulations and their high image of you. Doesn’t it fehould have kept your mouth shut, becauseout loud? Don’t you feel one step closer already? Well, bad news: you sthat good feeling will make you less likely to do it.Any time you have a goal, there is some work that needs to be done to achieve it. Ideally, you would not ben you tell someone your goal and he acknowledges(认可) it, satisfied until you’d actually done the work. But whepsychologists have found it’s called a “social reality”. The mind is kind of tricked into feeling that it’sthe actual hard work necessary.done. And then, because you’ve felt that satisfaction, you’re less motivated to doThis goes against the traditional wisdom that we should tell our friends our goals, right?In 1982, Peter Gollwitzer, a Professor of Psychology, wrote a whole book about this. And in 2009, he didsome new tests that were published. It goes like this: 163 people across four separate tests—everyone wrote downtheir personal goal. Then half of them announced their commitment(许诺) to this goal to the room, and half didn Then everyone was given 45 minutes of work that would directly lead them towards their goal, but they were told that they could stop at any time. Now those who kept their mouths shut worked the entire 45 minutes on average, and when asked afterwards, said they felt they had a long way to go to achieve their goal. But those who hadannounced it quit after only 33 minutes on average, and when asked afterwards, said that they felt much closer to achieving their goal.28. What do the words “social reality” in Paragraph 2 mean?A. Completion of the goal.B. Necessary hard work.C. People’s acknowledgement. D. A sense of satisfaction.29. What does Peter Gollwitzer try to tell us?A. Writing down the goal is very helpful.B. Achieving personal goal needs more time.C. Keeping the goal secret makes people work harder.D. Making the goal public makes people less satisfied.30. How did Peter Gollwitzer prove his idea about people’s goal?A. By giving figures.B. By giving examples.C. By making a survey.D. By making comparison tests.31. What will probably happen if you tell your friends your goal?A. You will be more confident.B. You will not gain satisfaction.C. You are less likely to realize it.D. You’ll be much more motivated.DCompared with solar and wind energy, which are booming, tidal(潮汐的) power is a loser in the clean-energy competition. But if you did want to build a tidal power station, there are few better sites than the mouth of theRiver Severn, in Britain. Its tidal range, the difference in depth between high and low tides, of around 15 metres isamong the largest in the world.Engineers and governments have been toying with the idea since at least 1925. But none of the suggestedprojects has materialised. Price is one objection. A study thought that tidal energy might cost between ￡216 and ￡368($306-521) per MWh of electricity by 2025, compared with ￡58-75 for seagoing wind turbines(轮机) and￡55-76 for solar panels. Environmentalists also worry that any plant would change the tides, making life harder for wildlife.An engineer called Rod Rainey thinks he has a way around both problems. He plans to replace the conventional turbines of previous plans with a much older technology. Specifically, he plans to span(横跨) theriver mouth with a line of water wheels. This is a design that dates back to the early days of the Industrial Revolution. Examples can be found fixed to the sides of old watermills(水磨).But there would be nothing old-fashioned about Mr Rainey’s wheels. Thirty metres high and sixty wide, they would be made from ordinary steel. Two hundred and fiftyof them, along with the supporting structures, would be floated into place and secured to the seabed, creating a line 15km long. Together, they could supply power at anaverage rate of 4GW. That is about as much as two biggish nuclear power stations would manage. Substitutingone of the wheels with a set of locks would provide a shipping channel about twice the width of Panama Canal, permitting upstream ports such as Avonmouth and Cardiff to continue operating.32. What is special about the mouth of the River Seven?A. The tidal range there is about 15 meters.B. It has the largest tidal range in the world.C. The tidal power station has been built there.D. Its power plant makes life harder for wildlife.s initial attitude towards tidal power?33. What was people’A. Opposed.B. Supportive.C. Controversial.D. Doubtful.34. What are the locks used for?A. Support.B. Transportation.C. Securing wheels.D. Producing electricity.35. What’s the best tittle for the text?A. Rainey invented turbines.B. Rainey’s tidal power station.C. Tidal power in the River Seven.D. An old idea might be made practical.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

The Bermuda native is in the midst of a trip that will take him to every state in the nation, mowing lawns (修剪草坪).Five years ago, Smith came across a senior man mowing his lawn and stopped to help, "When I came across the elderly man, my life changed,” he said. After that, Smith went on to create the Raising Men Lawn Care Service (RMLCS) to mow lawns for the elderly, disabled, single moms and former soldiers free of charge. As part of providing free yard work, the organization teaches children about serving their communities and lawn mower safety.A key component of RMLCS is its 50-yard challenge, which sets a goal for children nationwide to mow 50 lawns for free in their community. When a kid signs up for the challenge, the group sends he / she a white shirt with the Raising Men logo (标识),shades and ear protection. The participants receive a different colored shirt after every 10th lawn they mow. When they have completed the task for 50 yards , they receive a special visit from Smith or someone with RMLCS. They give the volunteer a new lawnmower, free of charge, and cut other lawns with them.Since this challenge started in 2016, 12 kids have already completed the challenge. And both boys and girls are part of it. At present they have 130 kids nationwide taking part in this challenge, including 7 in Bermuda and the UK and one in Canada. So it's spreading worldwide. Even the Queen of England took notice—the governor of Bermuda presented Smith with an award late last year on behalf of her.It was also last year that Smith came up with the 50 States 50 Lawns campaign Now he's on the road again24. What is the purpose of the Raising Men Lawn Care Service?A. To educate children to work hard.B. To offer free lawn cutting service.C. To make lawnmowers of high quality.D. To train professional lawn mowing workers.25. What will a child be rewarded if he or she completes the 50-yard challenge?A. A visit to RMLCS.B. The Raising Men logo.C. A white shirt and ear protection.D. A new lawnmower from RMLCS.26. Why is the Queen of England mentioned?A. To praise the Queen for her care.B. To prove Smith is respected by everyone.C. To show Smith's behavior got recognized.D. To introduce where Smith's motivation came from.27. What can be the best title for the text?A. Mow lawn in order to travelB. Lawn mowing—a new trendC. Choose mowing lawns to helpD. Smith—a man loving mowing lawnsCWhen your guests step into your home, should you, or shouldn't you, ask them to remove their shoes? Are shoe bacteria something we should really be worried about in our homes?The average shoe harbors （窝藏）hundreds of thousands of bacteria per square inch. The bottoms of our shoes are essentially a meet-and-greet for these bacteria, and with each step we take, we pick up newones. Wherever you go, you're going to be picking up them. But exactly what types of bacterial communities are hanging out on our shoes, and do they present a health threat? Almost all shoes were coated with all kinds of bacteria. While many types are harmless to humans, some can cause severe diseases, such as skin infections, and infections of the blood and the heart.But despite the horrifying picture, there isn't anything too serious to worry about. While many of us might want to take a house-cleaning step at the thought of shoes, the reality is that the load of bacteria our shoes bring indoors isn't typically high enough to make the average healthy person very sick. For a healthy individual, bacteria on shoes likely have no risk.Another point is that most of us don't spend a lot of time on the ground, where shoe bacteria stay. The exposure makes the poison. So if you're not exposed to it, you're not going to get sick from it. In some cases, layers of bacteria coating the floor can enter the air we breathe, lifted by the wind from a window. That might increase infection risk. But the greatest threat really lies on the ground. We should be more worried about a child crawling （爬）around on the floor. For a healthy adult, it's not too big of an issue.For the average household, shoe bacteria don't have an immediate risk. Healthy bacteria keep us healthy and protect us from other bacteria that can cause us illness. For most healthy persons, however, you can make the decision of taking your outdoor shoes off as much based on preference and habit.28. What can we infer about bacteria from paragraph 2?A. Most types of bacteria can cause us illness.B. It's impossible to keep our shoes clear of bacteria.C. The uppers of our shoes contain the most bacteria.D. Heart diseases are caused by bacteria from shoes.29. What does the underlined word "high" in paragraph 3 mean?A. From above to bottom.B. Far above the ground.C. Containing a lot.D. Standing tall.30. It is advised for people to take their outdoor shoes off when .A. there are old people at homeB. there are small children at homeC. they spend a lot of time at homeD. they want to close the window of the house31. What would be the best title for the text?A. Why do people get sick when the shoes change?B. Why do some places harbor more bacteria?C. Should you take off your shoes indoors?D. Could humans live without bacteria?DSweden is in a bit of a dilemma now；the nation of more than 9. 8 million has run out of garbage. The land- fills have been tapped dry and the rubbish reserves emptied. Although this may seem like a positive—even enviable—situation for a country to be facing, Sweden has been forced to import garbage from neighboring countries.You see, Swedes are big on recycling. So big, in fact, that less than 1 percent of Swedish household waste ended up in a landfill last year or any year since 2011. An enviable efficiency.Good for them! However, the population's remarkably resistant recycling habits are also a bit of a problem given that the country relies on waste to heat and provide electricity to hundreds of thousands of homes through a longstanding waste — to — energy incineration （焚烧）program. So with citizens simply not producing enough burnable waste to power the incinerators, the country has been forced to look elsewhere for fuel.The solution has been to import waste from other countries, mainly Norway and England. It's kind of a great deal for the Swedes: Other countries pay Sweden to take their waste, and Sweden burns it for heat and electricity. And in the case of Norway, the ashes remaining from the incineration process are returned back to the country and landfilled.Ostlund, a senior advisor for the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency, suggested that Norway might not be the perfect partner for a waste import-export scheme, however. “I hope we will get the waste from Italy or from Romania because they landfill a lot,"she said. "They don't have any incineration plants or recycling plants, so they need to find a solution for their waste.”Norway willingness to share its waste was just the first chapter in this story；now the British are in on it as well. That's a perfect match.32. What is the problem facing Sweden?A. It has trouble recycling all the waste.B. It doesn't have enough waste to use.C. It has no place to be used as landfills.D. It has to build incinerators in other countries.33. How does the author sound when referring to the recycling of Sweden?A. Curious.B. Disappointed.C. Humorous.D. Admiring.34. What can we infer about Norway?A. It makes huge profits by exporting waste.B. It exchanges waste for electricity with Sweden.C. It fills the sea with imported ashes to get more land.D.

AThree men have had a big influence on modern sound and communication technologies. We started with the beginnings of computer-generated music.Max Vernon MathewsMax Vernon Mathews has been called the father of computer music.He created electronic tools so that people could use computers, as musical instruments.He had a huge influence on the development of electronic music and how it is written, recorded and played.In 1957, Max wrote the first: computer program, Music,to enable a computer to create sound and play it back. The computer was so slow that it would have taken an hour to play the piece of music. in seventeen seconds.For that reason,Mathews moved the work to a tape player, which could be sped up to play the music at a normal speed.Mathews continued creating other versions of the Music program.He became interested in how computers could help musicians outside recording studios.The Groove program he developed was the first computer program made for live performances.Norio OhgaSony Corporation official Norio Ohga helped to develop, the compact disc in the late 1970s.He pushed for CDs to be larger, and with a longer playing time.He wanted them to hold seventy-five minutes so that they could store all of Bcethoven's Ninth Symphony on one disc.This way, listeners could enjoy the musical work without any break.The compact disc changed the electronics industry and the way people listened to music.Hubert Joseph SchlaflyHubert Joseph Schlafly was an electrical engineer who helped change the way actors, politicians and other people speak on television.In 1950, he and two other men developed the teleprompter.One co-worker, Fred Barton, was an actor.He had an idea for a tool that would help television actors read their lines without having to memorize them.The first teleprompter involveda person who turned a long plece of paper printed with tall letters, As the actor read the lines, another person would, move the paper ahead on the ter versions used television screens to show the words that were to be read.1. Why did Mathews give up using computers to create sound and play it back?A. Because he wanted to use computers as musical instruments.B. Becaus e he couldn’t create sound on computers.C. Because he wanted to enjoy musical work without any break.D. Because he wanted to find better ways to create sound with modern technologies.2. What's the meaning of the underlined word teleprompter?A. 投影仪B. 电子提词机C. 屏蔽仪D. 显示屏3. From the writing, we can learn that________.A. Mathews' first computer program could play the music at a normal speedB. the Groove program was the first computer program made for live performances by Hubert Joseph Schlafly.C. owing to Norio Ohga, people can enjoy all of Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony on one disc.D. only Hubert Joscph Schlafly and Fred Barton worked together to develop the prompter.BOur tolerating ability is indeed way beyond our imagination.But not until the very critical moment will we realize our potential tolerating ability.There was a woman in the countryside who got married at the age of 18 and had to escape with her two daughters and a son wherever she could at the age of 26 due to the Japanese army’s invasion, Many people could not bear the suffering of being a fugitive (逃亡者)and wanted to commit suicide.Knowing that, she would come to those people and soothed them by saying, "Don' t do that silly thing.There are no such setbacks that we could not overcome.The Japanese armies are bound to be driven away one day!”Finally, she insisted until the day when all the Japanese armies were kicked out ofChina.However, her son died of disease without sufficient medicine and nutrition in those days of hardships.Her husband, after knowing the death of his son, lay in bed for two days without eatingand drinking anything.She teared to her husband and said, “We have a tough destiny, but however tough our lives will be, we should persist in our efforts.”After she gave birth to the second son, her husband died of edema (水肿), which almost, blew her away.But eventually, she recovered and embraced the three young children, saying, "My sweet hearts, don,: feel scared.You still have me, your dear mum!”It took her painstaking efforts to raise her children up and, the life of her family was getting better and better.Two daughters were married and so was her son finally.She said to everyone she met,"Look! What I said is ly right.There are no such setbacks that we could not overcome! My life is so happy now!”She lived until 86.Before she went to Heaven, she said to her children, You all should live to your best.There are no such setbacks that we could not overcome!”4. What does the underlined word"soothed"in Paragraph 2 mean?A. Criticized.B. Evaluated.C. Thrilled.D. Comforted.5. what caused the woman’s son’s death?A. Japanese invasion.B. Her husband's death.C. Lack of nutrition and medicine.D. a disease called edema.6. Which of the following best describes the woman?A. Persistent.B. MiserableC. Scared.D. Intolerant.7. The passage mainly wants to tell us that__________.A. the woman was leading a tough lifeB. the woman showed great love to her kidsC. hardships can be overcome with an iron will and strong tolerating abilityD. invading other countries would make people there suffer a lotCSome people think going to the gym takes time and effort, it often hurts, and it can be extremely boring.Most weight-related exercises are a combination of sets and reps(几次几组).In order to see any significant change from any one exercise,it will probably need to be repeated six to eight times, for a minimum of three sets, for about three months: Then there' s aerobics(有氧运动).For some, there's nothing more boring than endless miles spent running on a treadmill(跑步机).But what if there is a way to reduce the boredom of exercise while still getting a good workout? Luckily for us, there’s virtual reality (VR).“In the past, playing video games was a sedentary(久坐不动的) experience:,"says Jo Stauffer of the VR Heaitn-institute, but VR changes all of that.” Many, VR games are played while standing In order to play properly, the players are forced to move around swinging their arms or using their legs.After an hour of this on a regular enough basis, it's not surprising, that many people unexpectedly find themselves a little fitter .There are already a number of virtual reality games which, deliberately or not, result in their player “getting a good sweat on” if played for enough time.For example, there's a music game which forces players to shadow box(做空拳攻防练习) in order to hit the notes---that's an upper-body workout.The benefit of VR has been noticed by one company.They want to take the whole experience into the gym. They are making a resistance machine, designed to be used in combination with a VR headset. Players challenge a virtual competitor in a series of games,which results in a30-minute full-body workout.However, the cost of the equipment is expensive and there are safety concerns to be worked out, says J.P.Gownder from the consultancy Forrester.Although it's early days, for those: of us who struggle to overcome the boredom of exercise,a new solution could be coming.And a world where a person can exercise and have fun at the same time might be something that many people would want-virtual or not.So don' t give up exercising.8. What conclusion can we draw from the first paragraph?A. Most weight-related exercises nearly have no effect.B. Some people think exercising in the gym is difficult and tiring.C. Running on a treadmill wont bring significant change.D You'd better not go to the gym because of the risk of injury.9. Compared with video games, VR games____________.A. bring more fun to play.B. take people less free time.C. are more likely to bring players health benefits.D. are more popular with people nowadays .10. What can we know about the resistance machine?A. It has been widely used in the gym.B. There are some disadvantages of it.C. J.P. Gownder highly recommends it.D. When using it, people need to have a partner.11. Which is the best title for the passage?A. Virtual exercise in the gym.B. Keep going to the gymC. The boredom of exerciseD. The popularity of VR games.DThe problem of robocalls has gotten so bad that many people now refuse to pick up calls from numbers they don’t know. By next year, half of the calls we receive will be scams(欺诈). We are finally waking up to the severity of the problem by supporting and developing a group of tools, apps and approaches intended to prevent scammers from getting through. Unfortunately, it’s too little, too late. By the time these “solutions”(解决方案) become widely available, scammers will have moved onto cleverer means. In the near future, it’s not just going to be the number you see on your screen that will be in doubt. Soon you will also question whether the voice you’re hearing is actually real.That’s becaus e there are a number of powerful voice manipulation(处理) and automation technologies that are about to become widely available for anyone to use. At this year’s I/O Conference, a company showed a new voice technology able to produce such a convincing human-sounding voice that it was able to speak to a receptionist and book a reservation without detection.These developments are likely to make our current problems with robocalls much worse. The reason that robocalls are a headache has less to do with amount than precision. A decade of data breaches(数据侵入) of personal information has led to a situation where scammers can easily learn your mother’s name, and far more. Armed with this knowledge, they’re able to carry out individually targeted campaigns to cheat people. This means, for example, that a scammer could call you from what looks to be a familiar number and talk to you using a voice that sounds exactly like your bank teller’s, tricking you into “confirming” your address, mother’s name, and card number. Scammers follow money, so companies will be the worst hit. A lot of business is stilldone over the phone, and much of it is based on trust and existing relationships. Voice manipulation technologies may weaken that gradually.We need to deal with the insecure nature of our telecom networks. Phone carriers and consumers need to work together to find ways of determining and communicating what is real. That might mean either developing a uniform way to mark videos and images, showing when and who they were made by, or abandoning phone calls altogether and moving towards data-based communications—using apps like FaceTime or WhatsApp, which can be tied to your identity.Credibility is hard to earn but easy to lose, and the problem is only going to get harder from here on out.12. How does the author feel about the solutions to problem of robocalls?A Panicked. B. Confused. C. Embarrassed. D. Disappointed.13. Taking advantage of the new technologies, scammer can ________.A. aim at victims preciselyB. damage databases easilyC. start campaigns rapidlyD. spread information widely14. What does the passage imply?A. Honesty is the best policy.B. Technologies can be double-edged.C. There are more solutions than problems.D. Credibility holds the key to development.15. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Where the Problem of Robocalls Is RootedB. Who Is to Blame for the Problem of RobocallsC. Why Robocalls Are About to Get More DangerousD. How Robocalls Are Affecting the World of Technology第二节(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

The non-profit organization she founded, NEST4US, has helped tens of thousands of people in the United States. Through NEST Nurtures, they've served over 12,000 homeless people in the Washington, D. C. area.She runs four different volunteer programs in all her spare time as ahigh-school senior. Venkat's passion for helping others started as her parents, active volunteers themselves, brought her along on their various projects. By the fifth grade, she'd developed such enthusiasm that she started organizing her own service projects.NEST4US was born when she realized how much food waste there is, how many hungry people there are, and how simple it would be to use the former tohelp the latter. "There was a homeless man standing on a corner in D. C. holding a sign that said 'Hungry Need Food'," she remembers. "So I gave him my lunch and his whole face just lit up. I found out he hadn't eaten in a week! It was so easy, it only took me 30 seconds, and it really helped him."Hunger is just one of the many harsh realities of living on the streets. But the ease of this small act inspired her to find a way to get food for the people in need. True, this is a question politicians, community and leaders, and others have been wrestling with for thousands of years. But she didn't over-think it, she decided to just act.How would she accomplish this huge task? Many kids of her age have a hard time just talking on the phone but talking to strangers is not a problem for Venkat, who says she emails, calls, and talks to business owners in person to apply for donations. "We have 1.5 times the amount of food we need to feed every person on the planet, it's just a matter of distribution," she saysmatter-of-factly. "Thankfully there are so many people who want to help, all you have to do is ask them."4. What made Shreyaa Venkat organize her own project?A. Her nature to help others.B. Her desire to be famous.C. Her parents strong influence.D. Her ambition to be a leader.5. What's the meaning of the underlined word "harsh" in paragraph 4?A. Necessary.B. Dangerous.C. Strange.D. Rough.6. What does the last paragraph mainly tell us about Venkat?A. Her idea to feed the world.B. Her thanks to the volunteers.C. Her way to raise donations.D. Her attitudes to treat strangers.7. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. A Teenager Helps to Feed the HomelessB. Kind Parents, Kind ChildrenC. Easy Act and Huge TaskD. NEST4US Was Finally Set UpCDieting to slim down always sounds great in theory. But with so many different types of diets, it's tough to know where to start. Certain set of rules about food and exercise can last for two days, two months, or the rest of your life. Some recommend limiting your calories, while others suggest reducing your carbs(碳水化合物). We don't blame you if it all starts to make your head spin.To help narrow the options down, some health experts at U. S. News and World Report evaluated 40 of the most popular diets, and then ranked them according to factors like nutrition, effectiveness, safety, and ease. Overall, Weight Watchers was named the best diet for weight loss.The final results might not be what you think of. But if you think about it, it's easy to see why Weight Watchers is such a star for weight loss. "Not only does it provide a healthy, effective program to shed pounds, but it also providessupport for dieters through group meetings. That will keep you motivated in the long run," the experts said.Meanwhile, the popular keto diet tied for last place, along with the Dukan diet. Whole30, another low-carb diet, was also at the bottom of the list. Why did these mainstream meal plans get a thumbs down from the experts? "The keto diet is just not sustainable over the long term," nutritionist Lisa Drayer said. "It doesn't teach you how to acquire healthy eating habits. It's good for a quick fix, but most people I know can hardly give up pasta and bread, let alone beans and fruit.""Still, that doesn't mean you should nix(否决) your New Year's resolution altogether," Drayer said. "Just make sure your diet fits with your lifestyle and goals—no matter which one you choose. Before you get started, read up on the surprising things doctors wish you knew about losing weight."8. What can we learn from the first paragraph?A.It's hard to choose a proper diet.B.Some diets can result in a headache.C.Dieting to slim down is easy in practice.D.Different diets can be used altogether.9. What's the reason for Weight Watchers' standing out?A.It supports dieters both physically and mentally.B.The method it provides is cheaper and easier.C.It searched for and learned from most popular diets.D.It focuses much attention on its users' safety.10. What problem do people usually meet in losing weight?A.Some diets are harmful to health.B.Many diets are hard to carry out.C.Body weight sometimes declines sharply.D.It's difficult to make a decision to lose weight.11. What does Drayer advise dieters to do?A.Make higher goals.B.Keep suitable diets.C.Abandon present diets.D.Learn from other dieters.DHigh blood pressure is a key risk factor for cardiovascular(心血管的) disease, and in many developed countries, including the UK, the likelihood of developing increases with age. More than a quarter of adults in England have high blood pressure, with recent figures showing the number rises to 58% among those aged 65—74.A study of remote communities in the Venezuelan rainforest has supported the idea that high blood pressure is not an inherent(固有的) part of ageing, but a result of longer exposure to risks arising from lifestyle, such as high levels of salt in the diet, lack of exercise and heavy drinking.Dr. Noel Mueller, an assistant professor at Johns Hopkins University, who led the research, said, "The idea that blood pressure rises with age as part of a natural phenomenon is increasingly being dispelled through evidence,including our findings here, which show that in a population that is largely free of exposure to western influences, there is no age-related rise in blood pressure."Writing in the Jama Cardiology journal, Mueller and his colleagues report how they contacted two rainforest communities. One, the Yanomami, has had very little contact with the western world. The group has ahunter-gatherer-gardener lifestyle and does not eat much salt. The other is the nearby Yekwana community, which has experienced some aspects of western life through trade, including commodities such as processed food and salt, as well as the presence of visitors.The team took the blood pressure of 72 Yanomami people and 83 from the Yekwana community aged between 1 to 60. While previous research has highlighted the low blood pressure of the Yanomami, this is the first time children were included in such work.Yekwana participants showed an increase in blood pressure with age. However, in the Yanomami community, blood pressure stayed almost the same.12. What's the purpose of Dr. Noel Mueller's study on high blood pressure?A.To prove its health risks.B.To prove it's widespread.C.To find the reasons for it.D.To find the effects it has.13. What do we know about Yanomami people compared with Yekwana community?A.They live a richer life.B.They live more simply.C.They are more hardworking.D.They are more open-minded.14. What does the underlined word "dispelled" in Paragraph 3 mean?A.Stressed.B.Removed.C.Convinced.D.Advocated.15. What conclusion can we draw from Dr. Noel Mueller's research?A.High blood pressure increases with age.B.High blood pressure leads to many diseases.C.Eating habits are linked to high blood pressure.D.Western lifestyle may cause high blood pressure.第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word ；for the other blanks，use one -word that best fits each blank.I used to joke that I spoke French like a three-year-old—until I met a French three-year-old and couldn't hold up my end of the conversation. This was after a year of intense study, including at least two hours a day with self-instruction software and weekend classes, followed by two weeks of an immersion program (沉浸式教学）at one of the top language schools in France.My failure was in fact quite unremarkable. Despite advertising claims, (21) (learn) aforeign language is a challenging task for any adult. In the end, though, (22) turns out that spending a year .‘not learning” French may have been the (23) (good) thing I could have done for my 57-year-old brain.In the last few years, I was unable to hold a list of four grocery items in my mind. So to reassure (24) that nothing was wrong, I took a cognitive (认知的）assessment just before tackling French. The results were anything (25) reassuring：I scored below average for my age group in nearly all of the categories, especially on the composite memory (综合记忆）test and the visual memory test.After a year of struggling with the language, I retook the cognitive assessment, and the results shocked me. My scores had skyrocketed, (26) (place) me above average in 7 of 10 categories, and average in the other three.

Each day in this school you will have the opportunity to learn lessons. You may like the lessons or hate them, but you have designed them as part of your curriculum.Why are you here? What is your purpose? Humans have sought to discover the meaning of life for a very long time.Each person has his or her own purpose and distinct path, unique and separate from anyone else's. As you travel your life path, you will be presented with numerous lessons that you will need to learn in order to fulfill that purpose. The lessons you are presented with arc specific to you；learning these lessons is a key to discovering and fulfilling the meaning and connection of your own life.As you travel through your lifetime, you may encounter challenging lessons that others don’t have to face，while others spend years struggling with challenges that you don’t need to deal with. You may never know why you are blessed with a wonderful marriage while your friends suffer through bitter arguments and painful divorces, just as you cannot be sure why you struggle financially while your peers enjoy abundance. The only thing you can count on for certain is that you specifically need to learn；whether we choose to learn them or not is entirely up to you.The challenge here, therefore，is to align (保持一致）yourself with your own unique path by learning individual lessons. But, remember，don’t compare your path to the people around you and focus on the difference between their lessons and yours. You need to remember that you will only be faced with lessons that you are capable of learning and are specific to your own growth.Our sense of fairness is the expectation of equity— the assumption that all things are equal and that justice will always prevail. Life is not，in fact, fair, and you may indeed have a more difficult lift path than others around you, deserved or not. Everyone's circumstances are unique, and everyone needs to handle his or her own circumstances differently. If you want to move toward calm, you will7 / 11be required to move out the comparing phrase of “it's not fair”. Focusing on the unfairness of circumstances keeps you comparing yourself with others rather than appreciating your own special uniqueness. You miss out on learning your individual lessons by distracting yourself with feeling of bitterness and anger.63.According to the passage, how can the meaning of your life be realized?A. Having the same opinions as others.B. Taking the distinct path from others.C. Learning the lessons presented to you.D. Doing the different things from others.64.From the passage we can conclude .A.everyone has his own track to followB.the same thing usually happens to the peersC. a painful divorce must lie in financial problemsD. a wealthy man must have a wonderful marriage65.Which of the following is TRUE?A.All things are equal and justice will always prevail.B.You should learn to appreciate your specific uniqueness.C.One has to fix his mind on the unfairness of circumstances.D.The teachers have designed the lessons as part of your curriculum in the life school.66.Life is called a full-time school, because .A. it is full of all lessons to learnB. you have plenty of time to learn lessonsC. you meet with specific lessons every dayD. there are so many subjects for you to choose Section C (8%)Directions ：Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.A.The study showed they are willing to keep their dogs accompany.B.The study showed dogs understand words and how they are said.C.And they were happy to see scientific support for what they experienced every day.D.He called one of the findings a “shocker”.E.Researchers say they think dogs are tuned in to what people say.F.He thought that the result is quite common.Researchers at a university in Hungary say there is truth to what many dog owners always believed. Dogs do understand what humans say.The researchers made images of the brains of 13 dogs using a machine that records brain activity. The dogs were trained to lie down in the machine for seven minutes. During that time，they listened through headphones to their trainers5 voices. Dog owners may think the news is not surprising. But scientists are impressed.Brian Hare is a professor of evolutionary anthropology at Duke University. (67) The brain imaging showed clogs processed words using the left side of their brains，just as humans do. They use the right side of their brains to understand tone and pitch. (68) Meaningful words said in a neutral way did not have the same effect as the same words said in an encouraging way.Attila Andies was the lead researcher on the project. “Dog brains care about both what we sayand how we say it,” he said. (69)It’s because dogs have lived with people for a long time. Andies said he thinks other animals probably can understand human language like dogs do. But those animals are not very interested in what humans have to say.People reacted to the story on Facebook and Twitter. They said they always knew their pets could understand them. (70) One reader from Virginia said she thought her dog could probably read her mind, too. Someone in California joked that he always knew his dog ignored him. And Greg Matos in Boston called the study “Fascinating!”IV.Summary Writing (10%)Directions：Read the following passage.

My dad collected old books and then decided that he wanted to sell some of them. And it went so well that it’s just kind of evolved to what it is today. ”The bookstore is only open six times a year for three weeks. About 25, 000 people visit during each period. The store sells about $ 2 million worth of books every year.“We buy our books at a fraction of retail (零售价的几分之一) and we can sell them for the prices that we do and keep our overhead low. That’s why we don’t have any fancy buildings or anything like that.”People have visited the store from many American states and from Kenya, Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Russia.Tom Whitlon is from the eastern city of Bristol, Connecticut.“We have our whole family with us this time. So we said, ‘Oh you gotta see this book fair, ’ and9 / 11so we brought ’em all here today.

This was after a year of intense study, including at least two hours a day with self-instruction software and weekend classes, followed by two weeks of an immersion program (沉浸式教学）at one of the top language schools in France.My failure was in fact quite unremarkable. Despite advertising claims, (21) (learn) aforeign language is a challenging task for any adult.

So to reassure (24) that nothing was wrong, I took a cognitive (认知的）assessment just before tackling French. The results were anything (25) reassuring：I scored below average for my age group in nearly all of the categories, especially on the composite memory (综合记忆）test and the visual memory test.After a year of struggling with the language, I retook the cognitive assessment, and the results shocked me. My scores had skyrocketed, (26) (place) me above average in 7 of 10 categories, and average in the other three.

AYou can either travel or read, but either your body or soul must be on the way. The popular saying has inspired many people to read or go sightseeing. Traveling just like reading, is a refreshing journey from the busy world. Books, brain food, can keep you company on your travel.On the Road, 1957, by Jack KerouacThe book is a globally popular spiritual guide book about youth. The main character in the book drives across the US continent with several young people and finally reaches Mexico. After the exhausting and exciting trip, the characters in the book begin to realize the meaning of life. The book can be a good partner with you to explore the United States.Life is Elsewhere, 1975, by Milan KunderaJean-Jacques Rousseau once said, “Man is born free, and everywhere he is in chains.” The book tells a young artist’s romantic but miserable life, about how he reads, dreams, and has a relationship. Experience the artist’s passionate life in the book during a trip to Central Europe. The book invit es you to deeply reflect on your current life.The Stories of Sahara, 1967, by SanmaoThe book narrates the author’s simple but adventurous life in the Sahara Desert, which seems a desolate and dull place. The fancy natural scenery and life there, along wi th the author’s romantic and intensive emotion, will inspire you to explore the mysterious land. Reading the book is like participating in a dialogue with the author, who is sincere and humorous.Lotus, 2006 by AnnbabyThis novel set in Tibet, tells three people’s stories, each with their unique characteristics. It reveals modern people’s emotions and inner life, their confusion about love, and exploration of Buddhism.The book is a good partner to bring you to the sacred land Tibet.21. Which book is about the exploration of life value through a journey?A. On the Road.B. Life is Elsewhere.C. The Stories of Sahara.D. Lotus.22. Whose book could be the most suitable for your trip to Germany?A. Jack Kerouac’s.B. Sanmao’s.C. Annbaby’s.D. Milan Kundera’s.23. What can we learn from the text?A. Lotus is a religious book exploring Tibetan Buddhist culture.B. On the road advises a classic route for driving across the US.C. The stories of Sahara records its authors’ own life in the desert.BWhen I was a boy, our extended immigrant family would sometimes gather at my aunt’s tiny house over the summer. Relatives from all over the country would come in to visit. The adults would crowd together in the living room to talk and catch up on each other’s lives. And the kids would be sent out into the front yard to play when dinner was slowly cooked for all of us.Those were the days before video games, smart phones, and motorized toys, so we often ended up playing an old game. I remember one of those moments especially. As I was the youngest and smallest of all the kids there, I got caught first and couldn’t catch anyone else. My brothers and cousins were all too fast for me, and I grew more and more frustrated. I finally fell my face first into the dirt. I got up with tears forming in my eyes. Then I saw one of my female cousins Susan standing there. She started to run but was going much slower than before. I easily caught up and seized her. Then she turned to me, smiled, and said, I’m it! You’d better run! Iran off laughing with glee while she turned and started to chase others.Now I see how her act of kindness that day saved me from sadness and returned me to joy. It didn’t matter that we hardly ever saw each other. I know we are family and she loves me.In her wonderful book Box of Butterflies, Roma Downey writes, “We are all one, we all belong to each other, and we are one big, beautiful family.” Perhaps it is time that we all started to treat each other that way. Perhaps it is time that we shared our love, our kindness, our laughter, and our joy with everyone without fear. Perhaps it is time to finally and forever bring this world together in one big family reunion.24. When the adults were chatting, the kids would __________.A. play video gamesB. sit in the front yardC. learn to cook dinnerD. play traditional games25.

What can be inferred from the passage?A. The author is grateful for what Susan did to her.B. The author can’t meet Susan any more.C. The author urges others to love their family.D. The author believes the world will become a big family.27. What could be the best title of the passage?A. A memory of my childhood.B. Sharing of goodness unites us.C. Kindness brightens our life.D. A good deed is invaluable.CPlease take a few seconds and think of your personal biggest goal. Imagine telling someone you meet today what you’re going to do. Imagine their congratulations and their high image of you. Doesn’t it feel good to say it out loud? Don’t you feel one step closer already? Well, bad news: you should have kept your mouth shut, because that good feeling will make you less likely to do it.Any time you have a goal, there is some work that needs to be done to achieve it. Ideally, you would not be satisfied until you’d actually done the work. But when you tell someone your go al and he acknowledges(认可) it, psychologists have found it’s called a “social reality”. The mind is kind of tricked into feeling that it’s already done. And then, because you’ve felt that satisfaction, you’re less motivated to do the actual hard work necessary. This goes against the traditional wisdom that we should tell our friends our goals, right?In 1982, Peter Gollwitzer, a Professor of Psychology, wrote a whole book about this. And in 2009, he did some new tests that were published. It goes like this: 163 people across four separate tests—everyone wrote down their personal goal. Then half of them announced their commitment(许诺) to this goal to the room, and half didn’t. Then everyone was given 45 minutes of work that would directly lead them towards their goal, but they were told that they could stop at any time. Now those who kept their mouths shut worked the entire 45 minutes on average, and when asked afterwards, said they felt they had a long way to go to achieve their goal. But those who had announced it quit after only 33 minutes on average, and when asked afterwards, said that they felt much closer to achieving their goal.28. What do the words “social reality” in Paragraph 2 mean?A. Completion of the goal.B. Necessary hard work.C. People’s acknowledgement.D. A sense of satisfaction.29. What does Peter Gollwitzer try to tell us?A. Writing down the goal is very helpful.B. Achieving personal goal needs more time.C. Keeping the goal secret makes people work harder.D. Making the goal public makes people less satisfied.30. How did Peter Gollwitzer prove his idea about people’s goal?A. By giving figures.B. By giving examples.C. By making a survey.D. By making comparison tests.31. What will probably happen if you tell your friends your goal?A. You will be more confident.B. You will not gain satisfaction.C. You are less likely to realize it.D. You’ll be much more motivated.DCompared with solar and wind energy, which are booming, tidal(潮汐的) power is a loser in the clean-energy competition. But if you did want to build a tidal power station, there are few better sites than the mouth of the River Severn, in Britain. Its tidal range, the difference in depth between high and low tides, of around 15 metres is among the largest in the world.Engineers and governments have been toying with the idea since at least 1925. But none of the suggested projects has materialised. Price is one objection. A study thought that tidal energy might cost between ￡216 and ￡368($306-521) per MWh of electricity by 2025, compared with ￡58-75 for seagoing wind turbines(轮机) and ￡55-76 for solar panels. Environmentalists also worry that any plant would change the tides, making life harder for wildlife.An engineer called Rod Rainey thinks he has a way around both problems. He plans to replace the conventional turbines of previous plans with a much older technology. Specifically, he plans to span(横跨) the river mouth with a line of water wheels. This is a design that dates back to the early days of the Industrial Revolution. Examples can be found fixed to the sides of old watermills(水磨).But there would be nothing old-fashioned about Mr Rainey’s wheels. Thirty metres high and sixty wide, they would be made from ordinary steel. Two hundred and fifty of them, along with the supporting structures, would be floated into place and secured to the seabed, creating a line 15km long. Together, theycould supply power at an average rate of 4GW. That is about as much as two biggish nuclear power stations would manage. Substituting one of the wheels with a set of locks would provide a shipping channel about twice the width of Panama Canal, permitting upstream ports such as Avonmouth and Cardiff to continue operating.32. What is special about the mouth of the River Seven?A. The tidal range there is about 15 meters.B. It has the largest tidal range in the world.C. The tidal power station has been built there.D. Its power plant makes life harder for wildlife.33. What was people’s initial attitude towards tidal power?A. Opposed.B. Supportive.C. Controversial.D. Doubtful.34. What are the locks used for?A. Support.B. Transportation.C. Securing wheels.D. Producing electricity.35. What’s the best tittle for the text?A. Rainey invented turbines.B. Rainey’s tidal power station.C. Tidal power in the River Seven.D. An old idea might be made practical.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
