(共15 小题;每小题2 分,满分30 分)AFamily structure has changed dramatically over the last 50 years. The "Leave it to Beaver" family is no longer the standard, and several variations on family have been created.Nuclear FamilyThe nuclear family is the traditional type of family structure. This family type consists of two parents and children. The nuclear family was long held in esteem by society as being the ideal in which to raise children. Children in nuclear families receive strength and stability from the two- parent structure and generally have more opportunities due to the financial ease of two adults. According to U.S. Census data, almost 70 percent of children live in a nuclear family unit.Single Parent FamilyThe single parent family consists of one parent raising one or more children on his own. The single parent family is the biggest change society has seen in terms of the changes in family structures. One in four children is born to a single mother. Single parent families are generally closeand find ways to work together to solve problems, such as dividing up household chores. When only one parent is at home, it may be a struggle to find childcare, as there is only one parent working, which limits income and opportunities in many cases.Extended FamilyThe extended family structure consists of two or more adults who are related, either by blood or marriage, living in the same home. This family includes many relatives living together and working toward common goals, such as raising the children and keeping up with the household duties. Many extended families include cousins, aunts or uncles and grandparents living together. This type of family structure may form due to financial difficulties or because older relatives are unable to care for themselves alone. Extended families are becoming increasingly common all over the world.Childless FamilyWhile most people think of family as including children, there are couples who either cannot or choose not to have children. The childless family is sometimes the "forgotten family," as it does not meet the traditional standards set by society. Childless families consist of a husband and wife living and working together. Many childless families take on the responsibility of pet ownership or have extensive contact with their nieces and nephews as a substitute for having their own children.1. In what aspect do single parent families usually work together ?A. eldercareB. financeC. houseworkD. tutoring2. Which of the following belongs to the type of extended family?A. Jack and Betty, who have been married for over 15 years, have two children namedDaniel and Chirstine.B. Jose and Maria live with their 3 children. They also live with their parents, anuncle and an aunt.C. Two years ago Darrel and Tanya got married. Before they got married Darrel hadthree sons and Tanya had a daughter. Now they all live together.D. Harry and his wife Jane have been married for six years. They have one daughternamed Melissa.3. What can be inferred from the text?A. Nuclear families are most common in America.B. The "Leave it to Beaver" family used to be a family type.C. Childless families tend to live with their nieces and nephews.D. Extended families form to take care of the old.BWhen I was five or six years old, I remember watching TV and I would see these commercials and I was watching other children suffer in other parts of the world and you know the commercials were like, “you can give 25 cents, save a child’s life.” And I would think to myself like, I wonder how many 25 cents I could save up to save all the kids in Africa. And I would say to myself, “Wh en I grow up, when I can get rich, I’ll save kids all over the world.” I just di dn’t know I would be in the position to do that by the time I was a teenager.At 17 I started my career here in America, and by the age of 18, I started my first charity organization. I went on to team up with other organizations in the following years and met, helped, and even lost some of the most beautiful souls, such as six-year-old Jasmina Anema who passed away in 2010 from leukemia. Her story inspired thousands to volunteer as donors through DKMS. Fast forward to 2012 and then my grandmother, the late Clara Brathwaite, she lost her battle with cancer, which is the very reason and the driving force behind the Clara Lionel Foundation. At CLF, our mission is to impact as many lives as possible, but it starts with just one. Just one.All you need to do is help one person, expecting nothing in return. To me, that is a humanitarian. People make it seem too hard, man. The truth is, and what I want the little girl watching those commercials to know, is you don’t have to be rich to help somebody. You don’t have to be famous. You don’t even have to be college-educated.But it starts with your neighbor, the person sitting next to you in class, the kid down the block in your neighborhood, you just do whatever you can to help in any way that you can.4. We know from the passage that .A. the speaker thought it hard to save 25 centsB. the speaker liked watching commercials on TVC. the speaker was confused by the TV commercialsD. the speaker helped others earlier than she had thought5. What’s the correct order of the events that happened?a. The speaker built up her career in America.b. The speaker wondered when and how she could help kids in Africa.c. The speaker’s grandmother passed away.d. Jasmina Anema died from leukemia.e. The speaker set up her first charity organization.f. Clara Lionel Foundation was founded.A. a, b, d, e, c, fB. b, a, e, d, c, fC. b, a, d, c, e, fD. b, d, c, f, a, e6. Who does “the little girl”in Paragraph 3 probably refer to?A. Anyone who wants to help.B. The speaker herself.C. The audience present.D. The speaker’s daughter.7. What’s the best title for the text?A. Life Isn’t Always ToughB. It’s Easy to Be a HumanitarianC. You don’t Have to Be Rich to HelpD. Be Always Ready to Take ChallengeCA 12-year-old with end stage cancer, the child’s parents had recently moved her from the hospital to her home in the suburbs of Los Angeles. Some days later the girl’s breath quickened, and her father phoned the family's hospice nurse.The nurse knew the visit would require more than four hours of her time: a two-hour drive in each direction, plus her time with the girl. “Why don’t we connect over FaceTi me?” she asked. The father agreed, and they connected.The nurse asked the father to move his daughter gently to her side, then to her back, to lift the child's shirt. The nurse would ask: what do you see, what concerns you, and the father would explain. In this fashion the pair examined the girl —the nurse on her computer, the father his iPad. T ogether they decided that the nurse’s presence was not necessary, that the child had more time.Later, the father reported feeling comforted by the nurse. He appreciated her availability, the fact that she could see what he saw, and their ability to discuss it in real time.Telemedicine has become a trend in America. Some hospitals have gone so far as to specially design telemedicine clinics. The room is staged like an office but with better lighting. There’s a nice desk for the clinician to sit behind, a computer situated stage left, and books in the background. A physician taking a video call from home might wear a pair of headphones, equipped with a mic —to ensure whatever the patient says isn’t broadcast to anyone off-camera.However, there is something more than the technology bit. According to David, the head of the telemedicine pilot the gir l’s family had been part of, there are some people who are great in person and you put them on camera they’re a dead fish. “Some physicians are camera shy, and thus usually seem ignorant of pati ents’ feelings. For others, the physical isolation can actually help them be more empathetic.” He adds.“My experience is that, once you get past some initial hurdles, you can maintain an intimate, immediate connection with patients that in some cases may be more useful than even in-person interactions.” David says.8. In the case mentioned by the writer, we learn that .A. a physician was arranged after the nurse knew it would take a long timeB. the nurse successfully diagnosed the girl with an Ipad over FaceTimeC.the gir l’s father showed satisfaction and thought highly of the service D.the 12-year-old girl was dying and should be sent to hospital in no time9. What do we know about the rooms for telemedicine?A. Better lights are provided for a comfortable environment.B. Headphones with mics are equipped to protect privacy of patients.C. Professional books are in place for immediate consultation.D. The room with a computer is situated in the doctor’s home.11. What challenges may clinicians face in telemedicine?A. They are afraid of being isolated from patients.B. They could not examine the patients carefully.C. They are required to deal with in-person interactions.D. They may not feel quite themselves in front of a camera.12. What does the underlined word “empathetic” in paragraph 6 probably mean?A. understandingB. independentC. indifferentD. confidentDEvery country may have to consider what, if anything, to do about “global warming”.We should understand that the oft-repeated claim that nearly all scientists demand that something dramatic be done to stop global warming is not true.Perhaps the most inconvenient fact is the lack of global warming for well over 10 years now. This is known to the warming establishment, as one can see from the 2009 “C limateg ate”email of climate scientist Kevin Trenberth: “The fact is that we can’t account for the lack of warming at the moment and it is an irony that we can’t.” But the warming is only missing if one believes computer models where so-called feedbacks involving water vapor and clouds greatly amplify the small effect of CO2. The fact is that CO2 is not a pollutant and it is a key component of the biosphere (生物圈) ’s life cycle. Plants get better growth with more of it and part of the increase of agricultural yields in the past century certainly came from additional CO2 in the atmosphere.Although the number of the scientists who are publicly opposed to the claim is growing, many young scientists secretly say that while they also have serious doubts about the global-warmingmessage, they are afraid to speak up for fear of not being promoted or worse.Why is there so much passion about global warming? There are several reasons, but a good place to start is the old question “Cui bono?”, or the modern update, “Fo llow the m oney”. Alarmism over climate is of great benefit to many, providing government funding for academic research, and thus those people who benefit from this fiercely defended their dogma and the privileges it brought them.Every country should support rational measures to protect and improve our environment, but it makes no sense at all to back expensive programs that turn away resources from real needs and are based on alarming but shaky claims of “incontrovertibl e”evidence.12. According to the passage, global warming .A. hasn’t happened in the latest 10 yearsB. has become an urgent problem these yearsC. has worsened a little bit in the recent yearsD. has never happened since measures were taken13. Which of the following statements about CO2 does the writer probably agree with?A. CO2 greatly affects the global warming.B. CO2 makes crops more productive.C. CO2 involves water vapor and clouds.D. CO2 is the most important part of the biosphere.14. Why is there so much passion for global warming?A. Because it is a good chance for young scientists to be promoted.B. Because the scientists want to have an insight of the problem.C. Because the government values the problem and tries to solve it.D. Because some people can greatly benefit from the research about it.15. What’s the writer’s attitude toward the programs to protect and improve our environment?A. To support all the programs as long as they are beneficial.B. To support cheap programs instead of expensive ones.C. To support the programs that are necessary and reliable.D. To support those programs that use less money and resource.第二节根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

The Penn colleagues and other community members meet three days a week for a roughly 30-minute jog and an occasional lecture. That’s right—during some runs, one of them delivers a talk. Topics range from the brain to Bitcoin.But on this day last January, it would not be their normal run. The first clue that something was off was the man who sprinted past them. “Running at an amazing pace,” Cassidy told Runner’s World admiringly. Cassidy discovered why the sprinter was so fleet of foot when another man ran by, yelling, “Help! He took my phone and laptop!”At that, the group did what running clubs do: They ran, trailing the suspect down the streets of Philadelphia until he ducked into a construction site. The runners split up. Cassidy ran around to the far side of the site to cut the thief off while the others wandered the neighborhood hoping he had dumped the loot (赃物) in a backyard.No luck. So they decided to ask residents whether they’d seen the guy. When they knocked on the door of one row house, they were in for a surprise. Unknown to them, he had already emerged from the construction site—and was hiding behind a bush by that very house. As the owner opened the door, the suspect darted out from behind the bush … and right into the arms of campus police, who’d joined the chase shortly behind the runners.The members of this running group are not hard-core athletes. But they do understand the benefit of a little exercise. “Running is typically a useless sport whe re you turn fat cells into heat,” Cassidy told The Philadelphia Inquirer. “But occasionally it can be useful, and here was one of those opportunities.”24. Why do the group members gather together?A. To do some stretching.B. To have a regular run.C. To deliver a lecture.D. To cover some topics.25. What does the underlined word “sprinted” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. Dashed.B. Pushed.C. Jumped.D. Escaped.26. We can infer that the success of the chase is mainly due to _______.A. the assistance of the runnersB. the owner of the row houseC. the campus police on patrolD. the joint efforts of the people27. Which of the following best describes Cassidy?A. Athletic and generous.B. Courageous and ambitious.C. Helpful and humorous.D. Thoughtful and demanding.CFood experts say washing could spread the germs on your turkey in the kitchen sink or nearby food. But it’s been a challenge trying to convince cooks to stop rinsing(冲洗) off raw poultry. Germs that can make people sick are common in the guts of healthy poultry and are legally allowed to be on raw turkey and chicken. The assumption is that nobody eats their poultry raw, and that thorough cooking will kill the bacteria.The do-not-wash raw poultry advice from the USDA is relatively new and perhaps hasn’t caught on because it goes against the common belief that washing makes things clean, said Chapman. Benjamin Chapman, a study author and food safety expert at North Carolina State University, said the instinct to wash raw poultry goes back at least decades when people relied more on visual clues to spot problems with poultry. Meanwhile, washing hands and surfaces are also important.But food preparation is a complicated act, and germs from poultry can be spread even if it’s not washed, especially when birds are removed from packaging.The USDA-funded study stresses that point. Researchers sprayed raw chicken with a harmless strain of E. coli(大肠杆菌) and watched volunteer cooks at test kitchens. Among those who washed their raw chicken, about a quarter ended up spreading the bacteria to their lettuce. But even some of those who did not rinse the chicken got germson the lettuce. And there are other opportunities for germs to survive on turkeys: melting and cooking.To ensure a bird is thoroughly cooked, they say to use a thermometer to check that the deepest and thickest parts of it have reached 165 degrees. Even after the meal is cooked, you aren’t out of the danger zone. To keep turkeys and other leftovers safe, experts say they should be refrigerated after two hours.28. People don’t accept USDA’s advice because _______.A. the advice is relatively newB. cleaning seems more trustworthyC. cooks clean the turkey before cooking itD. heat can kill most germs and no one eats raw food29. What can be concluded from Paragraph 4?A. Food packages carry germs.B. Hands and surfaces are easy to get E. coli.C. Germs from a turkey can be spread whether it is washed or not.D. Multiple methods should be applied to food to get rid of germs.30. Which way may help to cook a turkey safely?A. Rinse off the turkey before it is heated.B. Keep the turkey away from the lettuce and refrigerator.C. Wash hands and packages before taking out the turkey.D. Use a thermometer to check the temperature of the turkey.31. From which section of a magazine is the text probably taken?A. Culture.B. Science.C. Education.D. Medicine.DMicroplastics are everywhere in our en vironment. It’s hardly surprising that the tiny fragments have also been found in humans. A new study shows that Americans are consuming as many as 121,000 particles each year.Measuring 50 to 500 microns in length, microplastics come from a variety of sources, including large plastics that break down into smaller and smaller pieces. Therefore, much remains unknown about the common existence of these materials within the human body, as well as their impact on human health.Hoping to fill in some of these gaps, a research team led by Kieran Cox, a PhD candidate at the University of Victoria, looked at 26 papers assessing the amount of microplastics in commonly consumed food items, among which are seafood, sugars, salts, honey, alcohol and water. The team also evaluated the potential consumption of microplastics through inhalation (吸入) using previously reported data on microplastic concentrations in the air and the Environmental Protection Agency’s reported respiration rates. Based on these data, the researchers calculated that our annualconsumption of microplastics via food and drink ranges from 39,000 to 52,000 particles. When microplastics taken in through inhalation are taken into account, the range jumps to between 74,000 and 121,000 particles per year.The authors of the study found that people who drink exclusively from plastic water bottles absorb an additional 90,000 microplastics each year, compared to 4,000 among those who only consume tap water. “This shows that small decisions, over the course of a year, really matter and have an impact.” Cox says. The new study, according to its authors, was the first to investigate “the accumulative human exposure” to microplastics. But in all likelihood, the research tells only a small part of the entire story. Collectively, the food and drink that the researchers analyzed represent 15 percent of Americans’ caloric intake. The team could not account for food groups like fruits, vegetables and grains because there simply is not enough data on their microplastic content.For those worried about microplastic consumption, cutting down bottled water is a good place to start. But to the heart of the problem, we have to stop producing and using so much plastic.32. What makes it difficult to know microplastics commonly exist in the human body?A. The quality.B. The quantity.C. The shape.D. The size.33. How did Kieran Cox’s team calculate the potential consumption of microplastics?A. By studying papers.B. By comparing the impacts.C. By analyzing the data.D. By conducting experiments.34. Which of the following is true according to the text?A. Drinking less plastic bottled water helps to take in fewer microplastics.B. The study is among the earliest to investigate human exposure to microplastics.C. Cox’s team gained comprehensive information of microplastics taken in by humans.D. People consume 74,000 to 121,000 particles of microplastics per year from foodand drink.35. What is the best title for the text?A. The Potential Problems of MicroplasticsB.

AUnusual shapes, ambitious designs, new materials and new different styles have come with the modern architecture into construction today. And the world owes some of its strangest buildings to the masterminds of unconventional architects. Here are some of them.Cubic Houses, Rotterdam, NetherlandsThe Cubic Houses are an architectural wonder located in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. They were designed and constructed by architect Piet Blom in the 1970s. Blom was asked by Rotterdam town planners to solve the dilemma of building houses on top of a pedestrian bridge. They are cubes situ-ated in different angles over hexagonal poles, so they look like trees and altogether make a forest. There are 38 small cubes and they are all attached to each other.National Centre for the Performing Arts, ChinaThe National Center for the Performing Arts (NCPA), described as the Giant Egg, is an arts center in Beijing, China. The construction started in December 2001 and it took almost 6 years to complete. The building is surrounded by an artificial lake, seats 5, 452 people in three halls and is almost 12, 000 m2 in size. As one of the strangest buildings, it was designed by French architect Paul Andreu.Forest Spiral, GermanyThe Forest Spiral is a residential building complex in Darmstadt, Germany. It was designed by Australian artist Friedensreich Hundertwasser, and constructed by the Bauverein Darmstadt company. The building was completed in 2000. It's a really amazing building with a green roof, resembling a spiral (螺旋).Habitat 67, Montreal, CanadaHabitat 67, a housing complex in Montreal, Canada, was designed by Israeli-Canadian architect Moshe Safdie. Habitat 67 is shaped like a very interesting arrangement of cubes that kids play with. It looks so original and is a building completely stable and comfortable for living.21. What makes the four buildings special?A. Their sizes.B. Their functions.C. Their appearances.D. Their building materials.22. Which of the following buildings resembles trees?A. The Cubic Houses.B. The NCPA.C. The Forest Spiral.D. Habitat 67.23. What do the Forest Spiral and Habitat 67 share?A. They were completed in 2000.B. They were built for living.C. They have a green roof.D. They look like cubes.BRyan is a good kid. He gets great grades, he plays lacrosse (长曲棍球), and he is well-liked. So Jennifer and her husband didn't see any reason why their sixth-grade son couldn't have an Insta-gram account, until Ryan posted a photo of himself holding an empty beer bottle that his father had just finished. "My husband saw the photo pop up on Ryan's account and went up the stairs in seconds, demanding that he should take it down, " Jennifer says. "I don't think my son realized how bad his picture looked. He was trying to be funny, but he's in sixth grade! Even if he was simply posing, that picture was inappropriate. "With the popularity of photo-sharing site Instagram, it's easy for parents to have a false sense of security. Unlike Facebook or Twitter, Instagram is only for posting pictures and with the 13+age requirement and privacy feature, so it seems like an almost harmless site for children. How much trouble could they stir up? But that's not the fact.Shockingly, some kids are paying for attention on social media. When Paula Pryor found a mys-terious $700 charge on her credit card, the last thing she suspected it to be was payment to a company that helped acquire "likes" on Instagram pictures. "My son Hayden thought it was only ten dollars, but it was ten dollars per 'like', "says Pryor.Often, it's not your own teen that's cause for concern --it's someone else's kid. Megan Koster couldn't figure out why her daughter Delaney suddenly became so anxious about whether her panty line could be seen through her jeans. Finally, Delaney said that she was worried someone would take a photo and post it on Instagram. "I don't think I would have survived middle school if sites like this had existed back then, "Koster says.24. What made Jennifer think her son Ryan could have an Instagram account?A. He gained popularity in school.B. He was skilled at using Instagram.C. He showed interest in taking photos.D. He was old enough and behaved well.25. What does the underlined word "they" in paragraph 2 refer to?A. Instagram accounts.B. Social media.C. Pictures.D. Children.26. Why did Pryor's son pay the company $700?A. To obtain the picture he liked.B. To pay attention to social media.C. To get his photos noticed and liked.D. To pay the charge on his credit card.27. What's the text mainly about?A. Teen's problems with Instagram.B. Inappropriate pictures from children.C. The influence of the Internet on young users.D. Concerns for the Internet security for children.CIs there actual evidence that a coin toss --the act of spinning a coin in the air with your thumb and catching it in your hand - tends to favor one side over the other? Or is a coin flip 50/50? A new study questions the fairness of the flip.One side of the coin is, in fact, more likely to come up than the other, according to a team of scientists led by University of Amsterdam PhD candidate František Bartoš. Their study, which is stillundergoing peer review, collected and analyzed the results of 350, 757 coin flips in 46 different cur-rencies and registered that the coins landed on the same side they started on 51% of the time. This research was done in an effort to confirm a hypothesis (假设) proposed earlier by Stanford Uni-versity statistics professor Persi Diaconis and his team. According to that theory, "vigorously flipped coins tend to come up the same way they started. "According to Diaconis's team, when people flip an ordinary coin, they introduce a small degree of "precession", meaning a change in the direction of the axis(轴) of turning throughout a coin's track. Consequently, the coin tends to spend more time in the air with the initial side facing up. This makes a coin flip not quite 50/50.In 2007, Diaconis's team estimated the odds of a "same-side outcome" as approximately 51%. Nearly a decade and a half later, Bartos and his team found this very result. They published a prelim-inary report stating, "Our data lend strong support to the previous hypothesis -The coins landed on the same side more often than not. "Moreover, this was true for both sides of the coin and for all of the different coins tossed. As Diaconis stated back in 1986, "The more you think about randomness, the less random things become. But sometimes, you can take advantage of a lack of randomness. "Indeed, when it comes to flippinga coin, the quickest shortcut to making your own luck might just be calling it literally as you see it.28. What's the purpose of conducting the study?A. To find evidence for the fairness of a coin toss.B. To prove an assumption put forward years ago.C. To state the definite chance of one side of a coin coming up.D. To analyze the result of over 300, 000 coin flips in different currencies.29. What does the underlined word "precession" in paragraph 3 probably mean?A. Progressing.B. Spinning.C. Bouncing.D. Dropping.30. Which of the following may Diaconis agree with?A. There is no need to consider randomness too much.B. We have to make good use of a lack of randomness.C. Whatever coin it is, randomness turns out to be fair ultimately.D. The harder we flip a coin, the greater chance we will gain its randomness.31. What can be the best title for the text?A. Is a Coin Flip 50/50? A Perfect Randomness.B. Is a Coin Flip 50/50? A Mysterious Guess.C. Is a Coin Flip 50/50? Think Twice!D. Is a Coin Flip 50/50? You Bet!DWild turkeys are a familiar sight throughout New Hampshire, where flocks wander along road-sides and through backyards.In 1975, Ted Walski, the biologist for New Hampshire Fish and Game, released 25 turkeys from the back of his truck in Walpole, a town in the western part of the state. It was part of a reintroduction effort to bring back a species that had been wiped out in New England before the Civil War, where it used to suffer heavy blows -forests vanished for unknown reasons and people got their own way to hunt."Originally, I never thought it would get beyond a few thousand turkeys, " says Walski, who spent nearly 50 years working with the birds before retiring in 2019.Instead, New Hampshire's turkey population has exploded beyond all expectations, now around 45, 000 animals --- the highest since the reintroduction, and probably the most the state can approach. Reintroduction efforts in neighboring states and around the country have created a similar story ---there are 70, 000 wild turkeys in Maine, up to 50, 000 in Vermont, and more than 30, 000 in Massa-chusetts-all of which total up to about six million animals reproducing in all states but Alaska.So what made the wild turkey one of the most successful wildlife reintroduction programs in American history? Most likely, it's due to the bird's surprising and unexpected ability to live among humans. In the suburbs, turkeys can take advantage of edge habitat, like woods and open spaces, and dine on a never-ending buffet of food provided by people-particularly birdseed. Besides, it doesn't hurt that native predators, such as wolves and cougars, have largely disappeared from most parts of the turkey's range.But everyone is not thankful for the New England turkey boom. The infamously bold birds are troublesome, disturbing traffic and pecking at front doors, as well as potentially dangerous. In 2019, a 35-year-old pregnant woman was attacked by turkeys on the streets of Cambridge, Massachusetts-twice. As conflicts between these 20-pound birds and people are on the rise, particularly during the spring breeding season, wildlife officials are trying to cope with the reality that the turkey is here to stay.32. What had made turkeys extinct in New England before the Civil War?A. Disappearing forests and unrestricted hunting.B. Ted Walski's reintroduction policy and its effects.C. Turkeys' inability to reproduce and coexist with humans.D. Native predators' occupation of most parts of turkeys' range.33. According to the text, which of the following statements is true about wild turkeys?A. Their explosive population is completely out of the control of New Hampshire.B. The number of wild turkeys amounts to around six million in Alaska.C. Their abilities to reproduce fall short of people's expectations.D. They feed on adequate food from human beings.34. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. It is urgent to protect wild turkeys from being attacked.B. Turkeys are posing a potential threat to natural environment.C. Nobody appreciates the increase in turkeys due to their evil deeds.D. Measures will be taken to tackle conflicts between turkeys and humans.35. What is the main idea of the text?A. New England witnesses a turkey boom but not all appreciate it.B. The wildlife reintroduction program of wild turkeys is quite successful.C. Wild turkeys' sharp increase does harm to human beings and environment.D. There is a contradictory relationship between wild turkeys and human beings.第二节(共5小题;每小题2. 5分, 满分12. 5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, 并在答题卡上将该项涂黑, 选项中有两项为多余选项。

I play for a living. I love doing it,” Patterson tells CNBC. But Patterson’s road to success didn’t happen overnight. He started writing as a side hustle and he faced a lot of rejection before getting his first book published.Patterson grew up in the woods in Newburgh, New York with an insurance salesman father and a schoolteacher mother. Despite having dreams of being a writer, the idea “always seemed presumptuous”, Patterson says. But after reading books by James Joyce, “it really turned me on to reading, and then I started writing,” he says.After college, Patterson got his first job as a junior copy writer at the advertising agency J. Walter Thompson. While climbing the corporate ladder, Patterson wrote his first book, The Thomas Berryman Number in the mid-70s. The book “got turned down by 31 publishers”, Patterson says. But after it was finally published in 1976, “then it won an Edgar Award for best first novel.” The Edgar Award, which is named after Edgar Alan Poe, honors the best writers in mystery fiction and non-fiction.Despite publishing his first book at age 26, Patterson didn’t have a bestseller until he was 40. “It wasn’t like all of a sudden,” he says. In fact, Patterson kept his day job for decades and got promoted to CEO of J. Walter Thompson in 1988. During that time, Patterson says he would read well over 100 books a year to help spark his creativity. “I have a huge imagination and I’m constantly asking, what about this? What about that?” he says.Despite his success, Patterson says he doesn’t like to give advice, especially about writing. But he credits his own success to his work ethic and passion. “I also don’t take myself too seriously,” he says. “Yeah, I sell a lot of books, so what?”4. What do we know about James Patterson?A. He produced a bestseller when he was 26.B. He read a lot of books to get source of inspiration.C. He worked as a full-time writer when he was young.D. He got inspiration for his first book when climbing a ladder.5. What does the underlined word “presumptuous” mean in paragraph 2?A. Unrealistic.B. Contradictory.C. Imaginative.D. Inspiring.6. What can we infer about James Patterson from the last paragraph?A. He has sold a lot of books.B. He doesn’t take his job seriously.C. He values positive attitudes to work.D. He is unwilling to give advice to readers.7. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A. The Secret to Career SuccessB. A Tough Road to a Bestseller WriterC. An Edgar Award WinnerD. A Not-to-be-missed FictionCPolar bear mothers invest a huge amount into their cubs (幼兽), isolating themselves in dens (兽穴) dug with great effort into piles of snow to provide care through the unforgiving conditions of Arctic winter. It’s little wonder that the bears are hesitant to leave when disturbed, even when oil drilling equipment is in operation nearby.“We found that bears wouldn’t abandon their dens even with vehicles driving right overhead,” says Wesley Larson, who worked his way from office assistant to a graduate student position with Utah’s Brigham Young University, monitoring polar bears on Alaska’s North Slope.Scientists have recorded an increase in human-wildlife conflict in the area, as offshore pack ice has decreased, forcing the bear population to create their dens closer to petrol industry activity. With increased industry interest in oil and gas leasing (租赁) in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, strong evidence to help support and carry out protective measures for the species has never been more important.Wildlife managers in Alaska depend on a rule that industrial activity and research cannot take place within 1.6 km of a den with newborn babies in it. Working with 15 years of monitoring records, and 30 years of notes concerning interactions between the industry and the bears, Larson and colleagues were able to confirm that the regulation was sufficient, but that more needed to be done to actively locate dens. He explains that with entrances quickly covered by snow and dens closed-up until spring, they are effectively undetectable to the naked eye.“While technology such as forward-looking infrared cameras can be used to try to pick up a heat signature inside the den, it only works when conditions are perfect, and they rarely are in Arctic winter,” says Larson. He is now consulting on a project using radar technology to identify dens and ensure protection for the animals symbolic of the Arctic.8. Why does the author mention polar bear mothers in paragraph 1?A. To attract sympathy for the polar bears.B. To condemn human activities that damage nature.C. To show the severe environment polar bears live in.D. To explain polar bears’ unwillingness to leave their dens.9. What can be inferred from paragraph 3?A. Pursuit of economic interest threatens polar bears’ existence.B. Protective measures were not considered important in the past.C. Human activities have led to the reduction of offshore pack ice.D. The development of petrol industry has forced the bears to leave.10. What is Larson’s attitude towards the regulation of human activities in Alaska?A. Approving.B. Critical.C. Worried.D. Hopeful.11. What is the main idea of the text?A. Attention should be paid to protecting polar bears.B. Technology should be applied to identify polar bears.C. More efforts are necessary to monitor polar bear dens.D. It’s very difficult to successfully locate polar bear dens.DIt may not be rocket science, but researchers have found aerospace engineers and neurosurgeons (神经外科医生) are not necessarily brighter than the general population.Researchers examined data from an international group of 329 aerospace engineers and 72 brain surgeons who completed 12 tasks online using the Great British Intelligence Test.The tasks examined various aspects of cognition (认知), including planning and reasoning, working memory, attention, and emotion processing abilities. The researchers then compared the results against those previously gathered from more than 18,000 members of the British public.The findings, which were recently published, reveal that only neurosurgeons showed a significant difference, with quicker problem-solving speed but slower memory recall compared with the general population. “The difference in problem-solving speed exhibited by neurosurgeons might arise from the fast-paced nature of neurosurgery, which attracts those with a pre-existing talent for rapid processing, or it could be, though less likely, a product of training for rapid decision-making in time-critical situations,” the researchers noted.The researchers said the study was, in part, carried out to lay to rest the question of whether one of the professions had the intellectual upper hand — a tension made famous by a comedy show in which a confident neurosurgeon is slapped down by an aerospace expert who says, “Brain surgery … it’s not exactly rocket science, is it?”However, the team found few differences between the cognitive abilities of aerospace engineers and neuroscientists, although the results suggest the former had higher scores for attention and mental control — such as turning objects in one’s head — while neurosurgeons showed higher scores in semantic (语义的) problem solving — such as definitions of rare words.“Essentially what we think it shows is that everyone has a range of skills, some people are better at some things and other people are better at other things, and it is very difficult to be better in everything across the board,” said Aswin Chari, an author of the study.12. What is paragraph 3 mainly about?A. The research subjects.B. The research method.C. The research aspects.D. The research background.13. What seemed to be the major cause of neurosurgeons’ quicker problem-solving speedshown in the study?A. Fast development of neurosurgery.B. Talent of neurosurgeons.C. Training for rapid decision-making.D. Nature of problem solving.14. The study was conducted partly because the researchers _____.A. attempted to answer the question asked by the aerospace expert in the showB. were eager to solve the conflicts between neurosurgeons and aerospace engineersC. intended to settle the argument over the intellectual superiority of the two professionsD. wanted to find out which of the two professions was more intellectually demanding15. What is most likely to be the purpose of this text?A. To inform people of the results of a cognitive study.B. To encourage people to be confident in themselves.C. To reduce prejudice against certain professions.D. To correct misunderstandings about intelligence.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分, 满分12.5分)阅读短文,从短文后选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

D.Paul Drakeford.BYour mobile phone vibrates in your pocket. ‘Need to see you,’ reads the screen. Nothing new, considering that texting is currently the most common form of long-distance communication. But how were messages conveyed in the past?One of the first methods was the smoke signal. This practice was used by Chinese soldiers guarding the Great Wall to warn of the enemy’s approach. The Greeks invented a whole alphabet of smoke signals for sending messages. But it was Native Americans who made the system mobile by carrying small bunches of dried grasses around with them. These could be lit quickly from any place at any time.Moving on to messages transmitted by sound, an early technique was the drum. Drums are still used today in the rainforests of Africa, Papua New Guinea and Central and South America for broadcasting news. The instrument is made from a piece of wood, which is empty inside, and this is hit with a stick. On receiving the message, each village passes it on to the next, which means that news can travel at up to 150 km an hour.In some parts of the world, humans are able to convey messages over long distances without using instruments. On La Gomera, one of the Canary Islands, people use Silbo, or the ‘whistling language’ to communicate across the valleys. The language involves the use of the tongue, lips and hands to make sounds, which can travel up to 5 km. To ensure its continuation, Silbo is currently a compulsory subject in primaryand secondary schools on the island.A look at long-distance communication would not be complete without mentioning the art of yodelling. This is a form of singing, in which the voice changes sound levels very quickly, making it easily heard over longdistances. It is believed that the technique was developed in the Swiss Alps, but it is also found in other places such as Central Africa. At one time, yodelling was popular in theatres and music halls, but this is no longer so.4.What was most remarkable about the Greeks’ system of smoke signals?A. It could communicate words.B. It could be used instantly.C.It could mislead the enemy.D. It could stop wars from breaking out.5.What is the advantage of communicating by drums?A. The length of the message.B. The simplicity of the instrument.C. The speed of the transmission.D. The volume of the sound.6.What would be an accurate definition of ‘yodelling’? A.Moving frequently between high and low notes.B. Singing a recognizable tune in harmony.C. Using music with a really strong beat.D.Shouting in a loud voice.7.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Is That Strange?B. Get the Message?C.The Old TechnologyD. The History of InformationCMy first introduction to Chinese art was an early morning walk in Beihai Park in Beijing. There, I saw elderly people writing on the pavement with paintbrushes which were a metre long! I soon learned that they were doing water calligraphy − writing in water. The words have meanings, but t hey are also art. The calligraphy quickly disappears, of course. But tomorrow, the old people will be back.Temporary art like this is very popular in China. Every winter, Harbin, in northern China, is visited by sculptors and tourists from around the world. They come for the Harbin Ice Festival, when the city has hugesculptures made out of ice. The sculptures are bigger than houses, and they take weeks to make. Harbin’s freezing winter temperatures make it very difficult for the artists to work outside. But the weather also means that the sculptures will be protected until the spring.Of course, not all Chinese art is temporary − some of it has been around for a very long time! Near the city of Xi’an, I visited the amazing terracotta warriors, or soldiers. In 200 BC, 8,000 statues of soldiers were made by sculptors out of a material called terracotta. They are as big as real people and they all have different faces. An important king had the statues produced to protect his body after he died. They stayed under the ground with the dead king for over 2,000 years, until they were discovered by a farmer in 1974.At the China Art Museum, in Shanghai, I saw wonderful 16th-century Chinese paintings of tall mountains, trees and cliffs. The paintings were beautiful, but they didn’t look very realistic to me at the time. ‘Mountains aren’t like that,’ I thought. But that was before the last stop on my trip: the mountains of Zhangjiajie National Park.These mountains were used by film director James Cameron in his sci-fi film Avatar because they look like something from another planet. On my last weekend in China, I took a cable car up into the mountains there. Trees grew on the sides of hundred-metre cliffs, and strange towers of rock appeared out of the morning fog. It looked just like the pictures in the China Art Museum. For a moment, I felt like I was inside a Chinese painting!8.According to the passage, what is true about the people in Beihai Park?A. They introduced themselves to the writer.B. Some of them were writing graffiti (涂鸦).C. Their art didn’t last very long.D. They use paint and big brushes.9.What does the author say about the ice festival in Harbin?A. The sculptures don’t last long.B. It’s only popular with local people.C. It’s easy to make sculptures out of ice.D. The winter weather both helps and causes problems.10.What is true about the terracotta soldiers of Xi’an according to the passage?A. They all look exactly the same.B. Nobody saw them for a long time.C. Many people died making them.D. They are bigger than real people.11.Which statement describes the author’s feelings about Chinese art?A. She particularly liked Chinese paintings made long time ago.B. She was impressed by different types of Chinese art.C. She did not think it was very realistic.D. She was surprised that it was so old.DDaily physical activity is an important part of a healthy lifestyle. For this reason, many architects and designers are working to create buildings that encourage people to make exercise a part of their ordinary routine. The movement to promote healthy activity through architecture is called active design. It began in 1998 as part of a university public health program, and it has since gained popularity in cities around the world. Active design uses a number of techniques to encourage the occupants of a building to be more active.One of the most important strategies of active design is inspiring people to make walking part of their routine. A particularly successful tool for promoting walking is the skip-stop elevator. These elevators stop only on every second or third floor, leaving riders to take the stairs in order to reach their destination. Another strategy of active design is to make stairs more pleasant and inviting. Instead of creating dark stairwells that are located in isolated parts of buildings, active design uses well-lit and centrally placed stairs to encourage more foot traffic. Skip-stop elevators and appealing stair design are both effective tools of active design because they offer incentive and opportunity for exercise. In fact, researchers studying a building that employs both skip-stop elevators and more attractive stair design said that 70 percent of building occupants reported using the stairs every day.Active design encourages physical activity using not only the interior features of a building, but the relationship between a building and its surroundings as well. A building that employs active design may integrate outdoor space in order to make the environment more engaging and promote physical activity. Some elements that architects use to incorporate the exterior with the interior are glass walls, interior gardens or park spaces, and courtyards with open ceilings, all of which de-emphasize the boundaries between inside and outside. These elements make the building more physically and mentally invigorating. Similarly, by increasing the number of entrances and exits to a building, architects can help keep a building’s users interested in their surroundings by providing a variety of routes for them to use. If people continue to be stimulated by new sights or experiences, theyare less likely to choose the quickest and easiest path to their destination and may instead choose a more physically challenging route.12. What does the underlined word “incentive” in paragraph 2 mean?A. requirementB. encouragementC. techniqueD. assistance13. Why does the author discuss dark stairwells in paragraph 2?A. To demonstrate the differences between elevator and stairwell design.B. To describe one advantage of using skip-stop elevators in buildings.C. To make a point about why people don’t use the stairs often.D. To argue that skip-stop elevators may lead to design failures.14.Which of the following is NOT a way that architects weaken the boundary between indoor and outdoor spaces?A. Creating more routes for entering and exiting.B. Building gardens inside the building.C. Creating spaces with open ceilings.D.Using see-through materials.15.How does paragraph 2 relate to paragraph 3 in the passage?A. Para 2 describes an early model of a design discussed in para 3.B. Para 3 argues about the effectiveness of the technique from para 2.C. Para 3 introduces a different strategy than the one discussed in para 2.D. Para 2 explains a technique, and para 3 gives examples of how it is used.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。
