It is also one of those countries which have many traditions which modern times fortunately have not affected. Thailand is famous for its unique culture. It is well worth noting that Thai culture hasbeen handed down from one generation to the next.Thai Classical DanceThe inspiring culture includes local music and wonderful Thai dances. The dances of course have something to do with its deep-rooted Buddhist religion, fighting arts and beautiful clothing. Thai classical dance performances are generally performed by gracious (高雅的) Thai ladies wearing beautiful Thai local costumes. Most resort (旅游胜地) areas and many hotels frequently offer these Thai culture dance shows for foreign visitors.Thai GreetingThe unique Thai gesture of greeting another person, the wai, is especiallyone of the great aspects of Thai culture. The wai is when a person joins both hands to either head or chest level while bending their head slightly towards his hands. This way of greeting is especially done when a younger person greets an older person and it indicates a sign of respect to their elders. Employees would also wai their managers even if the manager would be younger than themselves.BangkokBangkok is the culture center of Thailand and has been the Thai capital since the end of the eighteenth century. Observing Thai culture in Bangkok can be great experience as the combination of modern times and traditions have created a kind of unique atmosphere. Bangkok offers a package of Thai culture which is shown by numerous beautiful Buddhist temples and many examples of modern Thai architecture.Bangkok National MuseumAnother location in Bangkok where one can enjoy and see Thai culture is at the famed Bangkok national museum, which offers tourists an opportunity to view national treasures and unique Thai art pieces with its culture feature dating back as early as the late sixteenth century.1.Thai classical dance is related to ________.A.its living level and educationB.its history and architectural styleC.its customsD.its religious belief2.In Thailand a worker uses the gesture, the wai , to greet________.A.his close friend.B.a young stranger.C.his younger colleagues.D.his young boss.3.What make Thai culture in Bangkok so unique?A.The long history and fine weather of Bangkok.B.The mixture of the modern culture and traditions.C.A number of beautiful Thai Buddhist templesD.Many examples of modern Thai architecture.BBarred owls(大林鸮猫头鹰) are a large species native to eastern North America, but they began moving west at the start of the 20th century. By 1973,large numbers of barred owls had arrived in the western state ofWashington. Later they moved south intoOregonandCalifornia.In parts of thePacific Northwest, the owls are now believed to be causing a drop in the population of a smaller, less aggressive bird: the northern spotted owl. In many ways, the barred owl is the spotted owl's worst enemy. The barred owl has more babies per year and eats the same animals, like squirrels and wood rats. And their numbers are now larger in many parts of the spotted owl's traditional territory.David Wiens is a biologist with the U.S. Geological Survey, a federal agency that studies the Earth and its natural resources. He and other officials are doing something unusual to protect spotted owls: killing barred owls. It is a controversial, experimental program. More than 2,400 barred owls have already been shot.Wiens is the son of a well-known bird expert and grew up with the fascination for birds. He has mixed feelings about the program. "It's a little distasteful, I think, to go out killing barred owls to save another owl species," he says. But he adds, “We knew that barred owls were out competing spotted owls and their numbers were growing too fast."To catch barred owls, officials put digital bird callers on the ground. Then they step back and wait as several sounds from the devices fill the air. All of this happens in the dark of night. Barred owls dislike other birds in their territory, so they will fly down and chase other owls out. That is when Wiens and his team try to shoot them.4. What's the main problem with spotted owls?A. They are being starved to death.B. They have more babies each year.C. They are invaded by another bird.D. They are hunted by man.5. Why are barred owls being killed?A. They are eating the spotted owls.B. They are killing each other to survive.C. They are putting the spotted owls in danger.D. They are destroying large areas of forests.6. Why did the officials release the bird sounds?A. To kill barred owls.B. To puzzle barred owls.C. To protect barred owls.D. To frighten barred owls.7. What can be the best title for the text?A. Killing One Animal to Save Another.B. Keeping the Balance of Nature.C. Protecting Birds in Danger.D. Preventing Birds from Playing Fair.CThe outbreak of the novel corona virus pneumonia (NCP) has disrupted the lives and work of nearly every Chinese person. However, a new trend has been on the rise: many have turned themselves into livestreaming users orfollowers.According to Questmobile, a professional big data intelligence services provider in China, the audience for Douyin, Kuaishou and other livestreaming platforms surged to 574 million during the Spring Festival holiday, up 35 percent from 2019.Confined at home, away from their friends and loved ones, people turn to livestreaming to reach out to the world. For them livestreaming can help them share their lives and interest with a global audience, which will give them the sense of being “in the moment”. Even as viewers, they can also engage immediately with livestreamers by commenting and making suggestions.“When I comment on the livestreaming videos, I’m not simply an audience member, but also an active part of the program. That gives me a sense of engagement,” an Internet user named Wang Hao told People’s Daily.Livestreaming is not only for fun, but also a new tool for many businesses. Affected by the pandemic, many businesses had to stop their sales in physical stores. To meet their business goals and survive during these trying times, many chose to livestream to revive their businesses.Joyoung, a leading maker of small kitchen appliances, is a good example. The company not only added a number of broadcasts each day to advertise their products, but also shared the menus that were beneficial to health. “The responses to our livestreaming shows have been well beyond expectations,” Kang Li, who oversees the company’s livestreaming unit, told China daily. “It’s a natural opportunity to truly bond with our followers.”Like it or not, livestreaming is likely to go mainstream in China for both entertainment and business.8. What is the purpose of writing the second paragraph?A. To introduce some popular livestreaming platforms in China.B. To report data on the development of livestreaming in 2019.C. To show that Chinese people spend too much time on livestreaming apps.D. To prove that livestreaming are becoming increasingly popular in China.9. What does Wang Hao think of commenting on livestreaming?A. It is boring to make comments.B. It is the only way to share viewers’ lives.C. It makes people feel involved in the stream.D. It helps livestreamers improve themselves.10. What do paragraphs 5&6 mainly talk about?A. Livestreaming replaced physical stores in many areas.B. Many businesses turned to livestreaming platform for marketing.C. Livestreaming platforms faced challenges during the pandemic.D. Livestreaming platforms made changes to their services.11. How does the author feel about thefuture of livestreaming?A. Positive.B. Uncertain.C. Disappointed.D. Confused.DOnce small farmers in Masii, a remote village in Kenya, have picked their crops, all they can do is wait until a buyer trucks through. The system works fairly well for beans and corn, but mangoes-the area’s other main crop-spoil (腐烂) more quickly. If the trader is late, they rot.However, a simple coating could change that. A company, SmartTech, has created a product that doubles the shelf life of fresh produce, enabling farmers to access far-off, larger markets. More time forfresh produce on grocers’ shelves also means less food waste-a $2.6 trillion problem, according to the United Nations’ Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO).James Rogers, CEO of SmartTech, wanted to solve the problem for food much in the same way that oxide barriers preventing rust (锈) have achieved for steel. Fortunately, researchers have found when plants made the jump from water to land, they developed cutin(蜡质), a barrier which is made of fatty acids that link together to form a seal around the plant, helping keep water in.The cutin was such a grand strategy that today you’ll still find it across the plant kingdom. SmartTech discovered through researches that an orange can last longer than a strawberry not so much because of the thickness of its skin, but because of the difference in the arrangement of those cutin molecules (分子)on the surface. After extensive trials, Rogers and his team developed a natural and tasteless protective coating from plant material-stems, leaves and skins. The product extends the sweet spot between ripening and rot. And best of all, the treated produce doesn’t require refrigeration.“SmartTech has huge potential to turn poor farmers in Africa into commercial farmers,” says Rogers. “That means more money in pockets, and more food in stomachs.” But whether the company can cost-effectively reach small farmers in far-off areas still remains a challenge.12. The author mentions the small farmers in Kenya to ________.A. stress their need for preserving produceB. show their challenge in harvesting cropsC. express their wish to reach larger marketsD. evaluate their loss caused by slow transport13. What can we learn about SmartTech’s product?A. It is financially supported by FAO.B. It is intended to replace refrigeration.C. It is designed to thicken produce’s skin.D. It is based on plants’own defence system.14. What will James Rogers probably focus on next?A. How to expand farms.B. How to earn more money.C. How to produce more tasty food.D. How to profit farmers in remote area.15. The main purpose of the passage is to ________.A. promote a productB. present a technologyC. advertise SmartTechD. introduce James Rogers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。

Adults ages 60 and older who took afternoon naps showed signs of better mental ability compared to those who didn’t nap, according to a study published in General Psychiatry earlier this week.Researchers analyzed napping habits in 2, 214 older Chinese people and measured their cognitive abilities using several cognitive tests. Participants took the Mini-Mental State Examination and theBeijingversion of the Montreal Cognitive Assessment, both of which test for memory, language and other cognitive abilities. In every category listed in the study, nappers tested statistically higher on average compared to their non-napping counterparts.Researchers did not gather data from people under 60, so a correlation cannot be drawn between napping and younger generations. The study also noted that there are conflicting studies about the benefits and risks of napping.Sleeping behaviors can be affected by a multitude of factors, said Dr. David Neubauer, associate professor atJohnsHopkinsUniversity. “Daily routines, medication use and sleep disorders can all play a role in how frequently someone takes a nap.” he said.Neubauer recommended taking a shorter “power nap” of up to 20 minutes to decrease the chances of transitioning into slow-wave sleep, which makes people feel groggy when they wake up. “Napping can be a healthy part of an older adult’s day”, Neubauer acknowledged, but make sure “sleepiness isn’t due to a treatable nighttime sleep disorder.” Older individuals who want to do all they can to preserve their cognitive functioning should put nighttime sleep first.4. What is the best way to keep a better cognitive ability for the old?A. Take a nap every day.B. Take sleep disorder seriously.C. Have a good sleep at night.D. Do exercise regularly.5. How did the researchers reach the conclusion?A. By taking the examinations and assessment.B. By analyzing napping habits and giving tests.C. By measuring nappers’ ability and analyzing them.D. By doing an experiment.6. Which has NO effect on one’s sleeping behaviors?A. Taking a nap.B. Medicine treatmentC. Sleep problemsD. Everyday activities.7. What can we know about “slow-wave sleep”?A. It appears in short nap up to 20 minutes.B. People should avoid it in their naps.C. It is a healthy part of an elder’s day.D. It was recommended by Neubauer.CPaper is an important part of modern life. People use it in school, at work, to make artwork and books, to wrap presents and much more. Trees are the most common material for paper these days.So how do people make paper out of trees today? People first cut trees, load them onto trucks and bring them to a factory. Machines cut open the outer coverings of the trees, and cut the trees into pieces. Those pieces are boiled into a soup. After that, it is hit flat, dried and cut up into sheets of paper.The entire process, from planting a small tree to buying your school notebook, takes a very long time. Just growing the trees takes 10 to 20 years.Making tons of paper from trees can harm the planet. Humans cut down 80, 000 to 160,000 trees around the world every day, and use many of them to make paper. Some of those trees come from tree farms. But people also cut down forests for paper, which means that animals and birds lose their homes.Cutting forests down also contributes to climate change, and paper factories pollute the air. After you throw paper, it often takes the paper six to nine years to break down. That's why recycling is important. It saves a lot of trees, slows climate change and helps protect endangered animals, birds and all creatures that rely on forests fortheir homes and food.So if paper isn't good for the environment, why don't people write on something else?The answer: They do. With computers, tablets and cellphones, people use much less paper than in the past. Maybe a day will come when we won't use paper at all — or will save it for very special books and artworks.8. What can we know about making paper out of trees?A. It costs much money.B. It takes a lot of time.C. It is very easy and fast.D. It is dangerous and difficult.9. What is the impact of paper production?A. It promotes the recycling.B. It does harm to the environment.C. It slows down the climate change.D. It protects the animals from losing homes.10. How will we use paper someday in the future according to the text?A. Use it for books only.B. Use the recycled paper.C. Treasure it occasionally.D. Use it for artworks.11. What idea does the author want to express from the text?A. The influence of making paper on environment.B. The wonderful experience of making paper.C. The necessary process of making paper.D. The good reasons for making paper.DIt was once considered an important status symbol ---but having a home phone is increasingly seen asa white elephant. New figures show that one in five households no longer bother with a landline(固定电话),and almost a third of those that do never actually use it.The vast majority of people who still have a home phone ——72 percent ——say they only have it because it is part of their broadband package.But that's not the only reason to desert the home phone - 20 percent of those surveyed said that they were fed up with the number of cold calls and would-be scammers(诈骗者).Digital media expert Dr. Elinor Carmi said there was a generational and social divide in phone use. She explained:"If you,re young and have the mobility to go outside, you would rely on a mobile phone. But if you are older, disabled and perhaps poorer, our research shows you're more likely to use a landline. If you are richer, youwill have access to more smart devices --- a smart TV, smartphone or laptop. But the poorer you are --- or if you are older, your use of these devices is more limited.”Last year, research from regulator Ofcom found that the amount of time spent on landline calls annually in theUKhad halved over just six years, to 54 billion minutes. The new study also showed that more than a quarter of households have decided to find a broadband provider that does not charge for their unused landline, but only six percent have done so.12. The underlined part “ a white elephant" in Paragraph 1 probably refers to something that isA. costly but effectiveB. useful and beautifulC. expensive but uselessD. cheap and necessary13. What's the main reason why some people still have a home phone?A. Their broadband package contains it.B. Their family can only afford to use it.C. They are used to using a home phone.D. They consider it an important status symbol.14. Which of the following is more likely to use a landline?A. A young adventurer.B. An old poor gardener.C. An outdoor photographer.D. A famous indoor designer.15. What's the best title of the text?A. End of the landline?B. Fed up with cold calls?C. The history of phonesD.

AMy college experience included this life-skill lesson: Drink alcohol on a full stomach. Or you will get inebriated too quickly. Of course, most college students shouldn’t be drinking at all, but we know from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism that close to 60 percent of college students aged 18 to 22 do consume alcohol, which makes harm-reducing approaches important.Unfortunately, campus authorities and researchers are reporting a practice that turns the full-stomach drinking strategy on its head: rather than filling up before a night of partying, significant numbers of students refuse to eat all day before consuming alcohol.This is a high-risk behavior called “drunkorexia,” which is one part eating disorder, one part alcoholism—a very dangerous combination for college-age students. The term drunkorexia, which can also include excessive exercise or purging before consuming alcohol, was coined about 10 years ago, and it started showing up in medical research around 2012. Drunkorexia addresses the need to be the life of the party while staying extremely thin, pointing to a flawed mind-set about body image and alcoholism among college students, mostly women.Imagine this scenario: A female college freshman doesn’t eat anything all day, exercises on an empty stomach, then downs five shots of tequila in less than two hours. Because there’s no food in her system to help slow the absorption of alcohol, those shots affect her rapidly, leading to inebriation and possibly passing out, vomiting or suffering alcohol poisoning. That’s drunkorexia.Tavis Glassman, professor of health education and public health at the University of Toledo in Ohio, researches drunkorexia and worries about scenarios such as the one described above: “With nothing in her system, alcohol hits quickly, and that brings up the same issues as with any high-risk drinking: getting home safely, sexual assault, unintentional injury, fights, hangovers that affect class attendance and grades, and possibly ending up in emergency because the alcohol hits so hard,” he says.“Alcohol can negatively affect the liver or gastrointestinal system, it can interfere with sleep, lower the immune system and is linked to several types of cancers,” Hultin says.1. What does the underlined word “inebriated” in paragraph 1 mean?A. excitedB. overwhelmedC. addictedD. drunk2. We can infer from the passage that ____________.A. a large number of college students spend most of their nights partyingB. some college students refuse to eat before drinking alcohol to keep slimC. There is a direct link between body image and consuming alcoholD. female college student is more likely to be hurt if she drinks alcohol3. Which of the following may Tavis Glassman agree with?A. With more food in one’s system, he may suffer from the effects of alcohol slowly.B. Drinking five shots of tequila in less than two hours is the performance of drunkorexia.C. Those who don’t attend classes and have lower grades tend to be addicted to alcohol.D. Alcohol has negative effects on the immune system and may lead to several cancers.BThe first men and women came to Britain over two and a half million years ago. They were hunters and gatherers of food who used stone tools and weapons. But the British Isles only became islands separate from the rest of Europe about 8,500 years ago, when melting ice formed the English Channel!3,000 years after Britain became an island, new tribes who came by boat from the mainland introduced farming. These tribes built earthworks for protection and as tombs for their dead. Many of these man-made hills can still be seen.Later on, people learned to build stone monuments. The most amazing is Stonehenge, a circle of huge stones begun about 4,500 years ago. Stonehenge is the world’s most famous prehistoric monument. We don’t know what it meant or what it was used for, though many different suggestions have been made.3,000 years ago the climate in Britain became colder and wetter than before, and people had to move down from high ground. A bit later iron started to be sued for tools and weapons instead of bronze. Knowledge of ironworking may have been brought by the Celts, a new wave of immigrants who started to arrive from southern Europe in about 500 BC.What we know about the first people in Britain has been worked out by archaeologists from theremains they left behind them. Pytheas, a Greek, was the first person who could read and write to come to Britain. His visit was in about 330 BC, over 2000 years after Stonehenge was begun. Unfortunately, what Pytheas wrote has been lost, so we don’t have any written record of Britain until the Romans came, almost 300 years after he did!4.This passage mainly tells us _______ .A. The dawn of history in BritainB. How English Channel was formedC. How the British made a living millions of years agoD. When humans appeared on the British Isles5.In this passage “the man-made hill” probably refers to ___________ .A. The small islands in BritainB. Earthworks for protection and as tombsC. The amazing StonehengeD. The farms opened up by the first man6.Why did people move to low ground 3,000 years ago?A. Because iron tools were used for farmingB. Because the climate made it unfit for man to live thereC. Because more people arrived from southern EuropeD. Because the Celts forced them to do so7.Only after ________ do people have written records about Britain.A. the arrival of the CeltsB. Stonehenge was begunC. Pytheas’s visitD. the Romans cameCDuring Amsterdam’s chaotic rush hour, nine -year-old Lotta Crok cycles to a very busy junction. “Look,” she says. “There’s traffic coming from everywhere. Four trams from four different directions. For a child on a bike that’s really confusing!”Lotta is the first junior cycle mayor in the world and her working area is the Dutch capital. You would think this challenge would be superfluous in a city known as the bicycle capital of the world. The number of bicycles in Amsterdam is estimated at 81,000 - more than the city’s 850,000 inhabitants - and 63% of the population cycle daily.But children who cycle in Amsterdam face challenges, Lotta says: “The three biggest problems for us are cars, cycling tourists and scooters (小型摩托). The cars take up too much space, the tourists are always swinging side to side and stop when you least expect it, and the scooters simply run you over.”Lotta became junior cycle mayor in June last year when she won a contest in which school children were asked to come up with plans to make cycling safer and more fun. Her idea was to add children’s bikes to the popular bike share programme.Since Lotta was appointed junior cycle mayor, she has been busy, giving interviews, opening cycling contests in the city and being a jury (评审员) member during the Amsterdam Light Parade, an event in which Amsterdammers decorate their bikes with lights.She is now planning a meeting with the city’s mayor to discuss ideas that children have come up with: “One of our proposals is a bicycle park where children can learn how to cycle. Right now, most of us learn a it in the street, which can be quite busy. Another idea is to create an app for tourists to teach them the rules of cycling, because most of them really don’t know.”Following the success of the Amsterdam scheme, cycle mayors around the world are now planning to appoint junior colleagues. “They see it works really well,” Boerma, the senior major, says. “I talk to the parents, Lotta talks to the children. And if you look at the city through the eyes of a child, you will also make it accessible for others. A city that’s good for an eight-year-old is also good for an 88-year-old.”8. Why is a junior cycle mayor appointed in Amsterdam?A. To teach children how to ride.B. To ensure cycling is safer for children.C. To give suggestions to the city’s mayor on how to run the city.D. To organize the cycling contests in the city.9. Which word can best replace the underlined word “superfluous” in paragraph 2?A. ImportantB. UnnecessaryC. DifficultD. Valuable10. What has Lotta done since she became the bike mayor? .A. She has solved the three biggest problems for children cycling in Amsterdam.B. She has won a contest about cycling.C. She has given interviews and been a jury member during a parade.D. She has given proposals to the city mayor.11. What’s Boerma’s attitude to the junior cycle mayor?A. CautiousB. FavorableC. AmbiguousD. DisapprovingDGive yourself a test. Which way is the wind blowing? How many kinds of wildflowers can be seen from your front door? If your awareness is as sharp as it could be, you’ll have no trouble answering these questions.Most of us observed much more as children than we do as adults. A child’s day is filled with fascination, newness and wonder. Curiosity gave us all a natural awareness. But distinctions that were sharp to us as children become unclear; we are numb(麻木的)to new stimulation(刺激), new ideas. Relearning the art of seeing the world around us is quite simple, although it takes practice and requires breaking some bad habits.The first step in awakening senses is to stop predicting what we are going to see and feel before it occurs. This blocks awareness. One chilly night when I was hiking in the Rocky Mountains with some students, I mentioned that we were going to cross a mountain stream. The students began complaining about how cold it would be. We reached the stream, and they unwillingly walked ahead. They were almost knee-deep when they realized it was a hot spring. Later they all admitted they'd felt cold water at first.Another block to awareness is the obsession(痴迷) many of us have with naming things. I saw bird watchers who spotted a bird, immediately looked it up in field guides, and said, a “ruby-crowned kinglet” and checked it off. They no longer paid attention to the bird and never learned what it was doing.The pressures of “time” and “destination” are further blocks to awareness. I encountered many hikers who were headed to a distant camp-ground with just enough time to get there before dark. It seldom occurred to them to wander a bit, to take a moment to see what’s around them. I asked them what they’d seen. “Oh, a few birds, ” they said. They seemed bent on their destinations.Nature seems to unfold to people who watch and wait. Next time you take a walk, no matter where it is, take in all the sights, sounds and sensations. Wander in this frame of mind and you will open a new dimension to your life.12. According to Paragraph 2, compared with adults, children are more ________.A. anxious to do wonders.B. sensitive to others’ feelings.C. likely to develop unpleasant habits.D. eager to explore the world around them.13. What idea does the author convey in Paragraph 3?A. To avoid jumping to conclusions.B. To stop complaining all the time.C. To follow the teacher’s advice.D. To admit mistakes honestly.14. The bird watchers’ behavior shows that they _______.A. are very patient in their observation.B. are really fascinated by nature.C. care only about the names of birds.D. question the accuracy of the field guides.15. In the passage, the author intends to tell us we should ______.A. fill our senses to feel the wonders of the world.B. get rid of some bad habits in our daily life.C. open our mind to new things and ideas.D. try our best to protect nature.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。

They are also held in many parks and museums.Neeta Bhasin created the Times Square event. She said Indian immigrants have found great success in America.

The event is part of a Festival of Holidays program at the theme park to show cultural traditions from around the world. The program takes place on November 10th through January 7th.San Antonio, Texas, also holds a Diwali celebration. And it is one of the nation's largest celebrations, with more than 15,000 people in attendance each year. Visitors can enjoy Indian dance,food and fireworks.

To recover the rock particles.B. To observe movements of the universe.C. To study unexplored places of the ocean.D. To examine creatures of the explored ocean.13.What mainly caused the start of the search in the sea?______A. A huge meteor shower.B. Business value of meteors.C. Plenty of natural resources.D. The brainstorm of researchers.14.Why do the scientists prefer to search for meteors in the ocean?______A. They can find meteors more easily.B. They may find bigger rock particles.C. They like to explore strange sea areas.D. They have better submarine equipment.15.What does the author intend to do in the last paragraph?______A. Offer clues for the search.B. Give reasons to support a guess.C. Stress the importance of the event.D. Describe the process of the search.二、阅读七选五(本大题共5小题,共10.0分)There are numerous benefits of reading good books.(1) Whatever your field might be,it's very important to create a good habit to read beyond your horizons.Here are tips to help you cultivate a better and consistent reading habit:• Determine your reading goal.(2) This goal should be dear and backed up with a purpose.Start by thinking about how a consistent reading pattern can help you grow in different areas of your life-spirit,academics,career,relationships and more.• (3) Once you're done setting your reading goal for the year,you'll need a list to back it up.Write out a list of the amazing books you want to read.Ask for recommendations from friends and instructors.It's important to keep a journal listing the books you ll like to read for each month.• Get a responsible reading partner to promote your reading.Goals need to he hacked up in order to help put a check and encourage you during times you don't feel motivated.(4)To develop a reading culture,you must first analyze your current reading habits.Do you read at all?(5) In order to truly achieve your reading goals and build a consistent reading habit,you'll need to set up simple systems,find responsible partners,and generally be hungry to grow beyond your comfort zone.A.Do you study hard at school?B.Make a list of books for each month.C.Do you start off and stop at some point?D.Get up early and go to bed late to back up your goal.E.It's important to start off by setting a goal to create a reading habit.F.Get a friend willing to read,and create a plan to help you achieve your reading goals.G.It can make you think deeper,sharpen your skills and teach you more about your field.16.

高考英语模拟试卷(一)题号I II III IV V VI总分得分一、阅读理解(本大题共15小题,共30.0分)AThe Worlds' Best Bookshops There's nothing like being surrounded by books,wherever you are.Here are the finest oases of literature that travellers can bring you.Daikanyama T-site | TokyoIt is well worth visiting even if just to admire the building's beautiful,crisscrossed architecture.Once you've had your fill of roaming three floors' worth of bookshelves,there's the bar,the coffee shop,or even the video rental space to give you more reason to stay just that little bit longer.Grab a book,order a beer and dive into its pages.I could have stayed hours here.City Lights | San FranciscoThe three-storey establishment publishes and sells titles in poetry,fiction,translation,politics,history and the arts.It hosts events and readings,and runs a non-profit of the same name that aims to promote diversity of voices and ideas in literature.It's opposite Vesuvio,a bar frequented by Kerouac and other Beat-generation writers and artists.Shakespeare and Company | ParisI made a special trip to the Left Bank for this one when I was in Paris.It has two floors packed with English-language texts,and I was particularly struck by any spare wall space devoted to notes from visitors - heartfelt messages to a loved one,dedications to the shop itself,or a quote from a favourite author or philosopher.Hutatma Chowk | MumbaiA few years ago I visited India,investigating Rudyard Kipling's connections with the country.I spotted a cheap copy of The Jungle Book on one of the tarp-covered book stalls at Hutatma Chowk (Martyrs' Square).The booksellers here are like amateur librarians,able to lay their hands on almost any title you ask for.To me,those well-thumbed (翻旧了的)books spoke volumes about the changes of Mumbai's readers in the 150 years since the city gave us Kipling.1.In which bookshop can you buy a drink while visiting?______A. Daikanyama T-siteB. City LightsC. Shakespeare and CompanyD. Hutatma Chowk2.What can be learned about the book stalls at Hutatma Chowk?______A. People can meet Rudyard Kipling there.B. They sell the cheapest books in the world.C. The book owners are amateur librarians.D. The sellers are familiar with the books.3.What do the four bookstores have in common?______A. They are beautifully designed.B. They are three-storey buildings.C. They offer book lovers good experience.D. They are frequently visited by great writers.Howard Weistling wanted to be a comic strip (连环漫画)artist.But when the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor,he joined the Army.After flight engineer training,Howard was shipped off to Europe.On his maiden flight,his plane was shot down over Austria.The entire crew of eight men landed safely.But a farmer found Howard hiding in his barn and turned him over to a prison of war camp in Barth,Germany.It was freezing and the men almost starved to death eating the guards' garbage.Hungry and homesick Howard coped the only way he knew how.He drew a comic strip.The book,made of cigarette wrappers bound together with scrap metal,was sent around the camp.Every couple of days he would add a new panel.One panel at a time would be passed around the whole camp.And they'd have something to look forward to.After an entire year of this,they woke one morning to find their guards gone.They fled and Howard finally got to go home.Just lucky to get out alive,he left the book behind.Back home in California,Howard soon had a wife and kids to feed so he had to set aside his dream of becoming an artist.He took a job as a gardener instead.Morgan shared his father's artistic gifts.At 15 his parents sent him to art school.And Howard got to see his son become a well-known painter before he died in 2002.That's how,seven decades after the war,when a stranger in New York googled the name "Weistling," he found Morgan online."I get an email from a gentleman and he says,‘ I think I may have some drawings your father did when he was a POW (prisoner of war)in World War II,'" Morgan recalls."‘Would you like them?' And I just stared at that email and started crying."Luckily Howard had engraved his name on the comic book,which is how the man from New York City had connected with Morgan.A couple of days later when it arrived in California,Morgan couldn't believe it."It was like getting my father back," Morgan says."It was like him being able to tell me the story over again - only this time it was real in my hands."4.The passage details Howard's life as a POW to show that ______ .A. war cannot stop his pursuit of successB. passion for art helped ease his sufferingsC. loss of freedom encouraged his creativityD. misery drives him to fight against his fate5.What can we infer about Howard's comic strip in prison?______A. It satisfied prisoners' curiosity.B. It aroused the guards' sympathy.C. It was popular among the prisoners.D. It raised prisoners' confidence in freedom.6.What contributes to the stranger's success in finding Morgan?______A. The email from a gentleman.B. Howard's experience in the war.C. Morgan's recalling of his father.D. Morgan's status in the field of art.7.What can we infer about Morgan from the last paragraph?______A. He didn't believe the stranger's story.B. He was excited to get the comic strip.C. He couldn't wait to tell others his good news.D. He hadn't heard about his father's war stories.Your brain isn't necessarily the same age as the rest of you.Now,it may be possible to predict how quickly a person's brain will age throughout life based on tests taken when he or she is three years old.A person's biological age may be a better indicator of their health than their real age.Brain age can be measured using brain scans and machine-learning to determine if a person's brain looks older or younger than the average healthy brain for people of the same age.To find out if brain age might reveal anything about a person's health in midlife,Max Elliott at Duke University in North Carolina and his colleagues assessed the brains of 869 adults in New Zealand who have undergone regular medical and cognitive (认知的)testing since they were 3 years old.When the volunteers,all aged between 43 and 46,underwent MRI brain scans,the team found that their brain ages ranged from 23 to 71.Those with older brain ages performed worse on tests of cognition,memory and IQ.The researchers also found that some people have a very advanced brain age but their bodies seem to be ageing slowly,and vice versa (反之亦然).However,the team found that those who had the highest scores on cognitive tests when they were 3 years old went on to have the youngest-looking brains.This suggests we might be able to tell who is at risk of accelerated brain ageing early in life.Researchers hope that predicting brain ageing earlier in life could allow treatments for conditions like dementia (痴呆)to be started sooner.This means treatments might have a better chance of working.We don't yet have a way to treat brain ageing,but given the known benefits to the brain of healthy eating and exercise,these aren't a bad place to start.8.What helps predict the speed of one's brain ageing?______A. One's health condition.B. A test result at the age of 3.C. The actual age of one's brain.D. A machine for medical check.9.What is the purpose of Elliott's research?______A. To find out why people look older or younger.B. To measure people's brain age at different stages.C. To discover whether brain age can be measured by machines.D. To explore the relationship between brain age and future health.10.What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?______A. The influence of cognitive tests.B. The procedure of Elliott's study.C. The information about volunteers.D. The findings of the brain research.11.What do the findings of the research imply?______A. We should test our brain age earliest possible.B. People suffering dementia can go on working.C. Brain ageing could be predicted at an early age.D. Healthy eating and exercise can cure brain ageing.DOne of the most popular beliefs in parenting is the so-called Mozart effect,which says that listening to music by the Austrian composer Wolfgang Mozart can increase a child'sintelligence.Some pregnant women have even gone so far as to play Mozart recordings on headphones pressed against their bellies.And it's not hard to see how Mozart's name became associated with accelerated development.He was history's greatest child genius,performing astonishing music for kings and queens at an age when many of us were content with tuneless singing "I'm a Little Teapot".So,if you have kids or you're expecting to have them,how seriously should you take the Mozart effect?Will the child who doesn't listen to Mozart in the cradle (摇篮)be limited to an ordinary life?Are you a bad parent if your kids don't know about any works of Mozart?Relax.There is no scientific evidence that listening to Mozart improves children's cognitive abilities.The whole idea comes from a small study done in 1993,which found that college students who listened to Mozart's Sonata for Two Pianos in D Major (K 448)showed some improvement in a test of spatial (空间的)skills.This finding was later described as something extremely amazing by a musician,Don Campbell,in a book.Campbell's claims about the super powers of Mozart's music were repeated endlessly in the media and fueled a craze for Mozart-based enrichment activities.In 1998,for example,the governor of Georgia in the USA requested funds to send classical-music CDs to all parents of newborns in the state.Since then,scientists have examined the claim that Mozart increases intelligence and found no evidence for it.The original experiment with college students was reviewed in 1999,and the increase in the students' spatial skills was found to be negligible.In 2007 the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research asked a team of experts to examine the scientific literature regarding Mozart and child development,and they found no reason to believe that it increased intelligence.12.People relate Mozart to children's intelligence development because he ______ .A. owned extraordinary music talentB. could perform music as a childC. offered music to pregnant womenD. was an royal Austrian composer13.What can we know about the small study in 1993?______A. It added to the popularity of Mozart's music.B. It found no evidence for supporting Mozart effect.C. It helped college students make academic progress.D. It urged Georgia's governor to spread classical music.14.What does the underlined word "negligible" probably mean?______A. Sudden.B. Insignificant.C. Average.D. Steady.15.What can be the best title for the text?______A. New Findings:Mozart Effect to Be ProvedB. Secrets Uncovered:History of Mozart EffectC. Does Listening to Mozart Make Kids Smarter?D. How Does Mozart Improve Kids' Intelligence?二、阅读七选五(本大题共5小题,共10.0分)Your comfort zone is a behavioral space where your activities and behaviors fit a routine and pattern that minimizes stress and risk.(1) You benefit in obvious ways:regular happiness,low anxiety,and reduced stress.Leaving your comfort zone can have very positive results,though.For one thing,you'll surely be more productive if you're willing to move out of it.With the sense of unease that comes from having deadlines and expectations,you'll have the drive and ambition to do moreand learn new things.(2) For another,learning to live outside your comfort zone can prepare you for life changes that force you out of it.Fear and uncertainty always exist in our life.By challenging yourself to things you normally wouldn't do,you can experience some of that uncertainty in a controlled and manageable environment.While outside your comfort zone can be a good place to be,(3) .You can start by doing everyday things differently.For example,you can take a different route to work or try a new restaurant.Besides,you should remember to break out in small steps.You get the same benefits whether you go with long strides (大步)or you start slow.If you're socially anxious,don't suppose you have to gather the courage to ask your crush (爱慕之人)on a date right away.(4) Identify your fears,and then face them step by step.Trying new things is difficult,so it's important to understand how habits form and how we can break them.(5)A.It provides a state of mental security.B.it's of great necessity to find ways to break out of itC.it's a pleasant experience to stay in the comfort zoneD.You have to manage that stress and risk in a clever way.E.Just say hello to them and see where you can go from there.F.That means you will get more done and find smarter ways to work.G.And it's as important to press yourself out of your comfort zone by doing specific things.16.

2020届广东省实验中学高三英语第四次联考试题及答案
2020届广东省实验中学高三英语第四次联考试题及答案第一部分阅读(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项ALocated in the beautiful Sichuan Basin, Chongqing is a magical 8D city. The natural history and cultural scenery of the area provide children with learning opportunities because they can enjoy the many wonders of this area.Fengjie Tiankeng Ground JointTiankeng Diqiao Scenic Area is located in the southern mountainous area of Fengjie County. The Tiankeng pit is 666 meters deep and is currently the deepest tiankeng in the world. The scenic spot is divided into ten areas including Xiaozhai Tiankeng, Tianjingxia Ground, Labyrinth River, and Longqiao River. There are many and weird karst cave shafts, and countless legends haunt them.Youyang Peach GardenYouyang Taohuayuan Scenic Area is a national forest park, a national 5A-level scenic spot, and a national outdoor sports training base. Located in the hinterland of Wuling Mountain. The Fuxi Cave in the scenic spot is about 3,000 meters long, with winding corridors, deep underground rivers, and color1 ful stalactites. The landscape is beautiful.Jinyun Mountain National Nature ReserveJinyun Mountain is located in Beibei District of Chongqing City, about 45 kilometers away from the Central District of Chongqing City. The nine peaks of Jinyun Mountain stand upright and rise from the ground. The ancient trees on the mountain are towering, the green bamboos form the forest, the environment is quiet, and the scenery is beautiful, so it is called "Little Emei". Among them, Yujian Peak is the highest, 1050 meters above sea level; Lion Peak is the most precipitous and spectacular, and the other peaks are also unique.Chongqing People's SquareChongqing's Great Hall of the People, one of the landmarks of Chongqing, gives people the deepest impression than its magnificent appearance resembling the Temple of Heaven. It also uses the traditional method of central axis symmetry, with colonnade-style double wings and a tower ending, plus a large green glazed roof, large red pillars, white railings, double-eave bucket arches, and painted carved beams.1.How deep is the Tiankeng Ground Joint?A.666mB.3,000mC.45kmD.1050m2.Which of the following rocks can you see in Youyang Peach Garden?A.LimestoneB.StalactiteC.MarbleD.Quartzite3.Which attraction is closest to downtown Chongqing?A.Fengjie Tiankeng Ground JointB.Jinyun Mountain National Nature ReserveC.Chongqing People's SquareD.Youyang Peach GardenBThe grocerystore might not be your favorite place to visit when you're at home, but is it ever fun when you're in another country? Honestly speaking, they're one of those strange little destinations that I like to sniff out everywhere I go, much as other travelers head toward clothing stores, libraries, coffee shops or galleries.The greatest beauty of the grocery store –– whether it's a supermarket or a tiny shop –– is that it gives you a glimpse into what local people buy to cook their own meals. This offers clues into their lifestyles and preferences, and into the agricultural and cooking practices of the country. I stare at the strange fruits and vegetables, the seafood, the cheese, the spices, the bread, and oh, the chocolate...always the chocolate!Being the environmental nerd(呆子)I am, I like paying attention to packaging, which can reflect people's attitudes towards environmental protection. Italy, for example, has a habit of requiring customers to bag their fruits and vegetables in plastic for weighing, while Sri Lanka leaveseverything loose in bins. In Brazil, everything is prepackaged in a layer of plastic.People in grocery stores tend to be friendlier. They smile, say hello, and sometimes ask questions, which can lead to great conversations. I had a further discussion with a teenaged cashier in Sri Lanka, over which bag of crunchy(松脆的)mix to buy. He insisted that the one labeled “spicy” would be too hot for me, but I told him I was willing to risk it. He laughed and we ended up talking about my favorite Sri Lankan foods for ten minutes.It's interesting then to come home and look at one's own local grocery store through new eyes. What would a visitor think? What stands out, and what do the food displays say about us as a culture? You might be surprised by what you realize.4. According to the author, what is the key benefit of visiting foreign grocery stores?A. Learning to cook foreign dishes.B. Making friends with local people.C. Buying cheaper food and souvenirs.D. Knowing local people and the country.5. What does the author show by mentioning some countries in paragraph 3?A. People's special lifestyles.B. People's shopping habits.C. People's environmental awareness.D. People's packaging methods.6. What can we infer from paragraph 4?A. Sri Lankans know a lot about food.B. Grocery stores are good social places.C. Grocery stores vary in different countries.D. Sri Lankans like to give strangers suggestions.7. Which of the following shows the structure of text? (P: paragraph)A. B.C. D.CTrees are “social creature” that communicate with each other in cooperative ways that hold lessons for humans, too, ecologist Suzanne Simard says. Simard grew up in Canadian forests as a child of loggers before becoming an ecologist. She's now a professor of forest ecology at theUniversityofBritish Columbia.Trees are linked to neighboring trees by a network of fungi below the surface of the earth that resembles the nervous networks in the brain, she explains. In one study, Simard watched as a Douglas fir tree that had been injured by insects appeared to send chemical warning signals to a pine nearby. The pine tree then produced defense enzymes to protect against the insect.“This was a breakthrough,” Simard says. The trees were sharing “information that actually is important to the health of the whole forest.”In addition to warning each other of danger, Simard says that trees have been known to share nutrients at critical times to keep each other healthy. She says the trees in a forest are often linked to each other via an older tree she calls a “mother” or “hub” tree.“In connecting with all the trees of different ages, the mother trees can actually ease the growth of these young trees,” she says. “The young trees will link into the network of the old trees and benefit from that huge resource capacity. And the old trees would also pass a little bit of carbon and nutrients and water to the young trees, at crucial times in their lives, that actually help them survive.”The study of trees took on a new resonance for Simard when she suffered from breast cancer. During her treatment, she learned that one of the medicines she relied on was actually obtained from what some trees produce for their own mutual defense. She explains her research on cooperation in the forest, and shares her personal story in the new bookFinding the Mother Tree: Discovering the Wisdom of theForest.8. How could a Douglas fir tree send chemical warning signals to a pine nearby?A. By an underground network of fungi.B. By the nervous networks in the brain.C. By making cooperation with each other.D. By holding lessons to it as human beings.9. According to Simard, what was a breakthrough?A. Simard was-brought up in Canadian forests.B. She became a professor of forest ecology.C. The pine tree produced defense enzymes.D. Vital information was shared among trees.10. What helped Simard understand trees further?A. Her rich knowledge of trees.B. Her childhood in the forest.C. Her medicine gained from trees.D. Her research on cooperation.11. In Simard's book we may discover the wisdom of the forest except .A. communicating cooperativelyB. warning each other of dangerC. sharing nutrientsat critical timesD. sacrificing mother trees for survivalDHumans have found an easy way to tell if others are lying. Recent research shows that the best way so far is being clever at how you ask questions and listen to the answers.Much of this research is based on the idea that telling a lie is simply harder mental work than telling the truth. Making up a story takes more effort than simply recording something that happened. And like a writer, a liar has to keep all the unreal details in his memory and sound believable when he explains them.One method that seems to work is asking them to tell their story in reverse order. This is harder when the story isn't true and makes it easier for you to tell they are lying. An even more basic way that helps is to just ask more questions, especially unexpected ones. Truth-tellers can easily find more to say, but it's a challenge for a liar to come up with something that's not in his prepared story.Researchers suggest that you shouldn't lay all your cards on the table at the start, but only gradually present what proof you have. The liars' stories may not agree with that proof, making it clear that they're lying.So it looks like there are ways to increase the chances of catching a liar; we've just been basing our methods on the wrong stories. Low-tech ways of causing people to make mistakes in conversation seem to work better than any science about eye movement or machines used to recognize a liar. To find a liar, watch less and listen more.12. Why does the author mention the writer?A. To show it's hard to make up lies.B. To show it's hard to recognise a liar.C. To show writers know liars best.D. To show writers are very clever.13. What do we know about liars?A. They often have much to say.B. They often ask many questions.C. They usually prepare a made-up story.D. They usually feel good about themselves.14. What advice is given to help people catch liars?A. Asking them to set their stories down.B. Presenting your proof one by one.C. Telling different stories to them.D. Letting them ask questions.15. Which can be the best title for the text?A. Why People LieB. How to Stop People LyingC. Low-tech Ways to Find a LiarD. LiarsAre Smarter than Thought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。

2020年广东省实验中学高三英语第四次联考试题及答案解析第一部分阅读(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项AOver the years, I’ve been guilty of hastily shutting the front door to many strangers when they came knocking with the intention of selling things. But earlier this year, around Easter time, a dear friend of mine had an experience that changed my mind and perception towards these “intruders”.Linda, who recently moved to a new neighbour hood, had been housebound all week suffering from a severe case of flu when, early one morning, there was the terrible knock on her front door. Peering out the window, she saw two young ladies demurely (端庄地) holding leaflets and a TV set model. She knew of a large TV set establishment nearby and assumed a message was about to be gently delivered. “This is the last thing I need today,” she muttered to herself and hesitantly opened the door.Coughing, she poked her head out and impatiently informed them she wasn’t the slightest bit interested in any TV whatsoever. Furthermore, she added, she was feeling quite unwell and abruptly shut the door. The ladies politely turned and left in silence.A few hours later, another knock. Linda glanced out the window and to her surprise, there were the same two ladies, back again. Really annoyed this time, she opened the door ready togive them a piece of her mind. Before she could speak, with concerned looks on their faces, these women handed Linda what looked to be a dish, saying, “We’re so sorry we disturbed you earlier. We thought you may like this homemade chicken soup. Hopefully it might make you feel a little better.”Linda was taken aback by this lovely gesture. Being new to the area, she didn’t know many neighbours or people who could assist her with shopping or errands (跑腿) so the gesture was all the more appreciated. She could only smile sheepishly and sincerely thanked them. With that, the ladies left.After she related this story to me, I thought about how touching this deed really was. Especially in today’s world where sadly, kindness and thoughtfulness seem so rare. I also realized that thinking about others and showing kindness is the real essence of love.1. What does the expression “give them a piece of her mind”in Paragraph 4 mean?A. Scold them severely.B. Drive them away.C. Refuse them directly.D. Speak out her idea.2. What can be learned about Linda from the passage?A. Linda always hastily shut the front door to many people.B. Linda was not a little interested in any TV whatsoever.C. Linda was very grateful to the ladies for their chicken soup.D. Linda would buy their TV set in reward for the ladies’ chicken soup.3. What’s the best title for the passage?A. A Chicken SoupB. Soup for the soulC. The Real Essence of LoveD. A Friend’s experienceBA team of researchersfrom theUniversityofColorado Boulderhave created a revolutionary type of robotic muscles. They are strong and flexible at the same time, can feel the movements they perform and, whenever they suffer damage, they can self-heal. However, what is best about them is probably the fact that they are extremely cheap to manufacture.The robotic muscles have been called actuators, and have drawn inspiration from real-life muscles. By creating robots equipped with this kind of actuators, researchers would allowthem to perform movements just like human muscles.To make the robotic muscles work, they filled some flexible material with electrodes(电极)and with liquid and oil. Then, they applied some electricity, and the liquid and oil started moving around the electrodes and powered them. This way, the robotic muscles started contracting and relaxing just like real muscles, but a lot quicker.Researchers also took inspiration from the variety of human muscles, and created more types of actuators, each of them performing a different movement. They called these robotic muscles HASEL ( Hydraulically-Amplified Self-healing Electrostatic). However, they are superior to biological muscles as they are stronger, faster, and more flexible.Even the researchers were amazed they could develop such technology. Eric Acome, the author of one of the studies, explained what is unique about the robotic muscles.“The ability to create electrically powered soft actuators that lift a gallon of water at several times per second is something we haven't seen before.”These muscles are special because they are also self-healing. This property is given by the liquid placed inside of them, which also gives them a lot more advantages than those mechanisms (机械)using solids. In the end, thematerial which keeps the liquid, the oil and the electrodes is extremely cheap. It is a type of polymer (聚合物)similar to the one used for potato chips bags, and can be manufactures for only 10 cents.4. What can we learn about actuators?A. They can heal on their own.B. They are biological muscles.C. They can not move like human muscles.D. They are slower to react than real muscles.5. What do actuators use to directly power electrodes?A. Solids.B. Liquid and oil.C. A type of polymer.D. Potato chips bags.6. What is the last paragraph mainly about?A. The origin of actuators.B. The opinions on actuators.C. The advantages of actuators.D. The significance of actuators.7. In which part of a newspaper will the textmost probably appear?A. Health.B. Culture.C. Education.D. Technology.COlder adults with a better sense of smell may live longer than thosewho have a poor sense of smell, a new study suggests. The study was a project of researchers in theUnited Statesthat was ongoing for over 13 years. They asked nearly 2,300 men and women to identify 12 common smells. All the subjects were from 71 to 82 years of age. The researchers gave the adults scores, from 0 to as high as 12, based on how many smells they identified correctly.During the years of follow-up investigation, over 1,200 of the subjects died. When the study was launched, none of the adults were weak. They could walk a little under half a kilometer, climb 10 steps and independently complete daily activities. In the latest findings, the researchers noted that those with a weak nose were 30 percent more likely to die than people with a good sense of smell. The findings were reported last month in the scientific publication Annals of Internal Medicine.Honglei Chen, a doctor withMichiganStateUniversityinEast Lansing,Michigan, was the lead writer of a report on the study. He said the connection between a poor sense of smell and an increased risk of dying was limited to adults who first reported good-to-excellent health. This suggests that a poor sense of smell is an early and sensitive sign for worsening health before it is recognizable in medical tests. With a poor sense of smell, people are more likely to die of brain and heart diseases, but not of cancer or breathing disorders.The results also suggest that a poor sense of smell may be an early warning for poor health in older age thatgoesbeyond dementia or other neurodegenerative(神经变性的) diseases. These often signal the beginning of a weakening of the mind or body.8. What do you know about the study mentioned?A. The study involved researchers from the world.B. All the participants were of different ages.C. The study began to be performed about 13 years ago.D. 2 ,300 men and women were young and healthy.9. What was the situation like at the beginning of the study?A. More than 1,200 of the participants passed away.B. Many of the subjects were found with health problems.C. All the subjects were independent of others when walking.D. One third of the participants had a poor smell sense.10. What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs?A. People with a poor sense of smell have heart disease.B. You should be careful with your health if you smell poorly.C. People with a poor sense of smell won't suffer from cancer.D. Most of the elder people may have the dementia disease.11. Which is the best title for the passage?A. Strong Sense of Smell May Be Linked to Longer LifeB. Old People Tend to Have a Poor Sense of SmellC. A Number of Factors Result in Longer LifeD. Being Ill Means Losing the Sense of SmellDWith graduation days being celebrated all over the country, a student who has to use a wheelchair honored his mother on his graduation day in a special way. Easley High School graduate, Alex Mays surprised people present when he got up and walked across the stage at Clemson's Littlejohn Coliseum.“I was really happy—it made me feel good,” Alex said.Alex was not given a chance to live right from his birth. He was born at 25 weeks and weighed just 1 pound, 10 ounces at birth. When he was very young, he had a disease and lost the ability to walk. After his mother's death in 2013, Alex had several other difficult life changes until he came to live with his grandparents, Dousay andher husband, Dewayne. Dousay said that when Alex came to live with them, they decided to bring him up in the best possible way they could.Last fall, Alex said that he would walk across the stage to get his diploma to honor his late mother. He practiced hard and worked with a physical therapist for 9 months to complete his plan.The only help Alex got was from his mom's best friend, Tonya Johnson, who pushed his wheelchair to the stage wearing one of his mother's favorite shirts. “I had support from my family. I couldn't have done it without them,” Alex said.“Alex made everyone in the building feel encouraged that day” Pickens County School District public information specialist John Eby said. “The school teachers knew he was going to get up to get his diploma, but the distance he walked was a surprise, even to them,” Eby said.“Some of life's most important tests aren’t given in a classroom; Alex tested himself and passed with flying color1 s,” Eby added.12. In what way did Alex honor his late mother on his graduation day?A. By dressing like her.B. By saying sorry to her.C. By inviting her best friend.D. By walking to get his diploma.13. What can we learn from Paragraph 3?A. Alex was born healthy.B. Alex went through a lot.C. Alex had a purpose in life as a child.D. Alex has lived with his grandparents all the time.14. What did Alex also express on his graduation day?A. His big regret in life.B. His feelings for hisschool.C. His thanks for his family.D. His will to complete his study.15.

They took advantage of their emergency power supply to bake bread. They used more than 4,200 pounds of flour to create hundreds of loaves and sheets of sweet bread. Although the water kept rising,they continued baking to help more people. By the time the owner managed to get to them,they had made so much bread that we took the loaves to loads of emergency centers across the city for people affected by the floods.The store manager, Brian Alvarado, told The Independents, "Whenever a disaster occurs, nobody should just feel forlorn.

Our acts of kindness will make a big difference."4.What did the bakery store workers do after flooding caused by Hurricane Harvey? ______A. They volunteered to make bread for their community.B.

The objects were discovered off the coast of the United States in the Pacific Ocean.The crew of the Nautilus,a private research ship,recovered the rock particles(颗粒). The Nautilus is operated by the Ocean Exploration Trust. The group says its aim at present is to examine areas of the ocean that have never been explored before.The search was launched after US government weather stations observed a large meteorite exploding some months ago. The explosion lit up the sky and sent the rock particles to the earth. The meteorite fall was the largest recorded over the United Slates in at least 20 years. The team includes scientists from NASA, the Olympic Coast National Marine Sanctuary and the University of Washington. The scientists examined what they believe were two small meteorite fragments. Further testing is needed before they can confirm that the material came from the explosion.The Nautilus is equipped with two remotely operated vehicles(ROVs), called Hercules and Argus. These robotic submarines help researchers find and collect materials from the seafloor. The fact that the particles landed in the ocean? instead of on land, means larger pieces may have survived and can be studied. For this reason, scientists decided to launch the first intentional search for meteorites from the ocean. Until the latest research, scientists had only accidentally discovered a small number of meteorites from drilling operations.The objects recovered from the bottom of the sea likely came from the recent explosion for two main reasons. First, meteorite particles are basically made of glassy materials that do not tend to last long in seawater. Secondly, they came from what looked like a small hole on the seafloor. Some evidence shows that they came from something that fell.12.What is the current goal of the crew of the Ocean Exploration Trust? ______A. To recover the rock particles.B. To observe movements of the universe.C. To study unexplored places of the ocean.D. To examine creatures of the explored ocean.13.What mainly caused the start of the search in the sea? ______A. A huge meteor shower.B. Business value of meteors.C. Plenty of natural resources.D. The brainstorm of researchers.14.Why do the scientists prefer to search for meteors in the ocean? ______A. They can find meteors more easily.B. They may find bigger rock particles.C. They like to explore strange sea areas.D. They have better submarine equipment.15.What does the author intend to do in the last paragraph? ______A. Offer clues for the search.B. Give reasons to support a guess.C. Stress the importance of the event.D. Describe the process of the search.【答案】【小题1】C 【小题2】A 【小题3】B 【小题4】B【解析】1.C.细节理解题.根据第二段The Nautilus is operated by the Ocean Exploration Trust. The group says its aim at present is to examine areas of the ocean that have never been explored before.鹦鹉螺号是由海洋勘探信托基金经营的.该组织说,目前的目标是考察从未被勘探过的海域.可知研究未经探索的海洋地区.故选C.2.A.细节理解题.根据第三段The search was launched after US government weather stations observed a large meteorite exploding some months ago这次搜索是在几个月前美国官方气象站观测到一块大型陨石爆炸后启动的,可知巨大的流星雨引起了搜索,故选A.3.B.细节理解题.根据倒数第二段means larger pieces may have survived and can be studied.
