Travel in Europe

Instead of Santorini, Tinos

Santorini has been struggling with overtourism for years, a victim of its own success after the island, and the Greek government, sought to lure tourists back following an 8-year financial crisis Now this idyllic destination has reached a saturation point.

A more authentic Greece — the one that Santorini offered before the crowds — can be found in the Cycladic haven of Tinos. With its own enchanting sunsets and rugged charm, this under-the-radar gem is an alluring alternative.

Instead of Amsterdam, Delft and The Hague

In 2017 Amsterdam was visited by 19 million people, two million more than live in the entire

country. The city has a particular problem with tourists on a tight budget — many arriving via low-cost airlines from Britain, France, Germany and beyond, and staying at Airbnbs, in hostels or in their cars and, spending much of their time partying in the red-light district. There the crowds get so dense that on weekend summer nights rescue workers often can’t get to people who fall sick or faint.

Another two destinations can be easily combined: Delft and, about 10 miles away, The Hague, the seat of Dutch government. Both are ideal for visitors looking for great museums, canals, wild North Sea beaches — and no crowds.

Instead of Barcelona, Valencia

For a less frenetic dose of cosmopolitan Mediterranean charm head 220 miles down the coast to Valencia, Spain’s third-largest city, with 800,000 residents and barely 2 million visitors per year. Founded as a retirement community for Roman soldiers, it has many of the same attributes as Barcelona — both were ancient walled cities — with a sprawling, mazelike center filled with Gothic, Romanesque, Rena issance and Baroque architecture. All styles were combined in Valencia’s Cathedral, built between the 13th and 18th centuries; architectural purists should not miss the

15th-century Silk Exchange, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a stunning reminder of the city’s mercantile importance.

1. What can we learn from Santorini?

A. It is still the popular place.

B. It is an attractive choice.

C. It will win tourists back.

D. It suffered overtourism.

2. In Amsterdam, the crowds are so dense that .

A. the streets are bustling with noise and excitement.

B. some people can’t be treated in time.

C. more visitors will be disturbed.

D. many people fall sick or faint.

3. What’s the author’s purpose to write this passage?

A. Recommend some better places to visit.

B. Introduce some new places to visit.

C. Criticize some crowded places.

D. Blame the improper tourism.

【答案】1. D 2. B 3. A

NASA has shown a design for a 3D-printed habitat that could be home for the first humans visiting the Red Planet. It has a double-shell design, to protect the habitable spaces from the natural expansion and contradiction caused by the extreme temperatures swings on Mars. Inside, its functional areas are spread over four levels, with a spiral staircase allowing humans to move around freely.

On the first level there is a wet lab, and a preparation area for astronauts entering and leaving the building. The second level has a dry lab, as well as a kitchen area. The third level functions as a sleeping area, as well as a sanitation pod and a garden area. The fourth level is an exercise and recreation area.

“Architecture on Earth plays a decisive role in the way we live,” said AI SpaceFactory, the New York-based team behind the design. “On Mars, this role reaches a higher level of importance since architecture is the machine which keeps us alive.”

AI SpaceFactory has been selected as the winner of NASA’s 3D-Printed Habitat Challenge, and awarded the top prize of $500,000. The competition challenged participants to create shelters out of recyclables and materials that could be found on deep-space destinations, like the Moon and Mars.

AI SpaceFactory was praised for the way it automated the building process---completing the building with nearly no human assistance in 30 hours. It was also applauded for its biopolymer basalt composite---a biodegradable (可由生物降解的) and recyclable material developed from natural materials found on Mars. After passing a series of NASA’s tests, this material was found to be stronger than its concrete competitors.

“It’s light, and it’s strong, like an airplane,” said Lex Aker s from the Caterpillar College of Engineering and Technology at Bradley University, who was one of the competition judges. “That’s going to be very important for these types of habitats.”

4. What are the first and second paragraphs talking about?

A. The features of this 3D-printed habitat.

B The structure of this 3D-printed habitat.

C. The functions of this 3D-printed habitat.

D. The introduction of this 3D-printed habitat.

5. The underlined word “sanitation pod” in the passage probably means “”.

A. Washroom.

B. Living room.

C. Dining room.

D. Bedroom.

6. Why NASA selected AI SpaceFactory as the winner?

A. It used recyclables.

B. No human assistance.

C. Its material is proper.

D. It passed NASA’s a range of tests.

7. What do you find this 3D-printed habitat?

A. It costs a lot.

B. It will come into reality.

C. It is of significance.

D. It arouses people’s interest.

【答案】4. D 5. A 6. D 7. C

【解析】

本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了3D打印的栖息地。

【4题详解】

段落大意题。根据第一段中的“a 3D-printed habitat that could be home for the first humans visiting the Red Planet. It has a double-shell design…Inside, its functional areas are spread over four levels”和第二段中的“On the first level…The second level…The third level…The third level…”可知，第一、二段主要介绍了这个3D打印的栖息地。故选D项。

【5题详解】

词义猜测题。根据第二段中的“On the first level there is a wet lab, and a preparation area for astronauts entering and leaving the building. The second level has a dry lab, as well as a kitchen area. The third level functions as a sleeping area, as well as a sanitation pod and a garden area. The fourth level is an exercise and recreation area.”可知，在第一层有一个潮湿的实验室，和宇航员进出大楼的准备区。第二层有一个干燥的实验室，还有一个厨房区域。第三层是一个睡眠区，还有一个卫生舱和一个花园区。第四层是锻炼和娱乐区。上文已提到kitchen area ，sleeping area，所以划线词sanitation pod指洗手间。故选A项。

【6题详解】

细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“After passing a series of NASA’s tes ts, this material was found to be stronger than its concrete competitors.”可知，美国宇航局选择人工智能太空工厂作为赢家，因为它通过了美国宇航局的一系列测试。故选D项。

【7题详解】

推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“It’s light, and it’s strong, like an airplane… That’s going to be very important for these types of habitats.”可知，它很轻，而且很结实，就像一架飞机，这对这些栖息地非常重要。由此可推知，这个3D打印的栖息地意义重大。故选C项。

children and reduce the effects of traumatic experien ces. “Fostering a child takes patience, resilience （适应力）, and sacrifice, and we know that caring adults hold the power to reduce the effects of traumatic experiences on young children,” says Dr. Jeanette Betancourt, Senior Vice President of US Social Impact at Sesame Workshop.

“We want foster parents and providers to hear that what they do matters --- they have the difficult job of building and rebuilding family structures and children’s sense of safety. By giving the adults in children’s lives the tools the y need --- with help from the Sesame Street characters --- we can help both grownups and children feel seen and heard and give them a sense of hope for the future.”

Honey can be used to measure air pollution, according to a new study from researchers at the University of British Columbia’s Pacific Centre for Isotopic and Geochemical Research (PCIGR).

The research, which was recently published in Nature Sustainability, drew on a survey of urban

beehives (蜂房) around Vancouver that contained small levels of lead, according to The New York Times. Using beehives to measure pollutants could be a cost-effective way to monitor what is in the air.

“The good news is that the chemical co mposition of honey in Vancouver reflects its environment and is extremely clean,” the study’s lead author Kate E. Smith told the school’s website. “We also found that the concentration of elements increased the closer you got to downtown Vancouver, and that the lead largely came from man-made sources.”

The Vancouver area honey showed levels that were below the global average for things like lead, and the University of British Columbia website said someone would “have to consume more than 600 grams, or two c ups, of honey every day to exceed tolerable levels.”

Hives for Humanity, a nonprofit in Vancouver, started the study when it asked a professor at the University of British Columbia to look at honey for pollutants. Through the honey samples alone, Smith said the researchers could find higher concentrations of lead in areas with heavy traffic or industrial activity. Researchers also noted that the lead wasn’t traceable to any local sources, which led them to think that large ships entering Vancouver from Asia could be the source of the pollutants.

“One of the exciting parts of this study is that it bridges science with community interests,” Smith told the school’s website. “Honey sampling can easily be performed by citizen scientists in other urban centers, ev en if they lack other environmental monitoring skills.”

12. Using beehives to measure pollutants could _______.

A. be an efficient method to see what is in the air

B. keep the environment from being polluted

C. monitor what happened to the air

D. cost a large amount of money

13. What can we know from Kate E Smith’s words?

A. Downtown Vancouver is pretty clean.

B. The lead comes from man-made product.

C. The environment of Vancouver is not bad.

D. Human is responsible for the concentration of lead.

14. What can we infer from the fifth paragraph?

A. The problem of lead is easy to settle.

B. Ships from Asia are related to the pollutants.

C. Honey can be used to reveal lead and other pollutants.

D. Heavy traffic and industrial activity produce more lead.

15. Wha t’s the best title of the passage?

A. The Importance of Honey

B. Environmental Monitoring Skills

C. Honey--Measure Lead and Pollution

D. How to Look at Honey for Pollutants

【答案】12. A 13. D 14. C 15. C

【解析】

这是一篇说明文。本文主要讲述蜂蜜可以用来监测空气中的铅和其它污染物，并引用一些实验来佐证这一说法。

【12题详解】

细节理解题。根据第二段的“Using beehives to measure pollutants could be a cost-effective way to monitor what is in the air.”可知，使用蜂房来测量污染物可能是一种经济有效的监测空气污染的方法。故选A项。

【13题详解】

细节理解题。根据第三段的““We also found that the concentration of elements increased the clos er you got to downtown Vancouver, and that the lead largely came from man-made sources.””可知，Kate E. Smith说他们还发现离温哥华市中心越近，元素的浓度就越高，而铅主要来自人为因素。即，人类应该对铅的聚集负责。故选D项。

【14题详解】

推理判断题。根据第五段的“Through the honey samples alone, Smith said the researchers could find higher concentrations of lead in areas with heavy traffic or industrial activity. Researchers also noted that the lead wasn’t traceable to any local sources, which led them to think that large ships entering Vancouver from Asia could be the source of the pollutants.”可知，仅通过蜂蜜样本，研究人员就可以发现，在交通繁忙或者工业活动频繁的地区铅浓度更高。研究人员还指出，铅的来源并不是本地的，因此他们认为从亚洲进入温哥华的大型船只可能是污染物的来源。由此可知，蜂蜜可以用来揭示铅或其它污染物的存在。故选C项。

【15题详解】

主旨大意题。根据文章的主要内容，尤其第一段的“Honey can be used to measure air pollution,

according to a new study from researchers at the Uni versity of British Columbia’s Pacific Centre for Isotopic and Geochemical Research (PCIGR).”(据英属哥伦比亚大学太平洋同位素和地球化学研究所的研究人员说，蜂蜜可以用来测量空气污染)和第二段的“Using beehives to measure pollutants could be a cost-effective way to monitor what is in the air.”(使用蜂房来测量污染物可能是一种经济有效的监测空气污染指数的方法。)可知，本文主要讲述蜂蜜可以用来监测空气中的铅和其它污染物，并引用一些实验来佐证这一说法。故本文的最佳标题可以是“蜂蜜——测试铅和其它污染物”。故选C项。

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。选项中有两项为多余选项。

To Learn More without More Study

A new research on how teenage brains work, aside from its own sake—teen brains are developing madly to build a computing machine—is arousing a new movement to help kids make the most of the brain they've got. But how to make the kids to learn more without having to study more? Here are several tips:

___16___ Sleep enables memory, which is that you remember stuff after you sleep on it. What's more, overall performance, attention, and the ability to concentrate are damaged by lack of sleep. Teenagers need nine to 10 hours of sleep a night for optimum performance.

Start studying a few days in advance of a test. Memories work better if the brain is exposed to information repeatedly. ___17___This is because your brain doesn't have enough time to digest what you have learned.

Body exercise is brain exercise.___18___ Perhaps the reason is that it increases blood flow, or that it reduces stress and anxiety. Exercise also promotes growth of new brain neurons（神经）. Twenty minutes or so a day of activity that raises your heart rate will do it.

___19___ Because emotional systems develop fast in teenager brains, and teenagers learn things they're in favor of quickly and well.

Learn now what you want to remember for the rest of your life. Teenage brains are much better at remembering things on a conscious level than the brains of young children or adults. Scientists aren't sure why, but they know that human brains are prepared to notice and remember what's new. ___20___ So whatever the reason is, the teenage years are the time to learn new languages

and acquire other lifelong skills.

A. Learn what you love

B. Get to bed and go to sleep.

C. Squeezing doesn't work well.

D. Teenagers are exposed to lots of new stuff.

E. Studying hard before the exam is also useful.

F. Suitable exercise really improves brain function.

G. Doing morning exercise is helpful for your health.

【答案】16. B 17. C 18. F 19. A 20. D

【解析】

本文为说明文。本文讲述了几种提高学习效率的方法。

【16题详解】

本句为主题句。通读本段内容，尤其根据第二句Sleep enables memory, which is that you remember stuff after you sleep on it(睡眠促进记忆，也就是说，你在睡了一觉之后还能记住一些事情)可知，本段主要关注睡眠与学习效率的关系，选项B. Get to bed and go to sleep(上床睡觉)符合语境，故选B。

【17题详解】

根据本段主题Start studying a few days in advance of a test(在考试前几天开始学习)可知，学习要趁早，不要临时抱佛脚，空格后的句子This is because your brain doesn't have enough time to digest what you have learned(这是因为你的大脑没有足够的时间来消化你所学到的东西)解释了原因，选项C. Squeezing doesn't work well(挤时间（学习）效果并不好)符合语境，故选C。

【18题详解】

根据本段主题句Body exercise is brain exercise (身体锻炼也是大脑锻炼)，再根据下一句Perhaps the reason is that it increases blood flow, or that it reduces stress and anxiety(也许原因是它增加了血液流动，或者减轻了压力和焦虑)可知，适当的运动确实能改善大脑功能，选项F符合语境，故选F。

【19题详解】

根据下文Because emotional systems develop fast in teenager brains, and teenagers learn things they're in favor of quickly and well(因为青少年的情绪系统在他们的大脑中发展得很快，而且青少年能快速而很好地学习他们喜欢的东西)可知，要学习你喜欢的东西，选项A符合语境，故

选A。

【20题详解】

由下文...the teenage years are the time to learn new languages and acquire other lifelong skills.(所以无论原因是什么，青少年时期都是学习新语言和学习其他终身技能的时期)，可知，青少年是学习新语言和其他终身技能的时期，在这段学习时期，他们会接触到很多新事物，所以无论原因是什么，都要为了将来从现在就学习自己想要记住的东西，选项D 符合语境，故选D。

第二部分：英语知识运用

完形填空(共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分)

阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

I was walking my dog Snoopy one evening while the last light of the setting sun ____21____ the clouds purple and pink. I looked up at the sky and smiled. After a minute Snoopy started ____22____ at her leash. She was more than ready to head inside for a bowl of dog food and a bacon ____23____.

I wasn’t quite ready to go in, however, so I ___24___ her. I was waiting for my friends the Little Blinkers to appear.

It wasn’t long either ___25___ I saw them switching their lights on and off. They were fireflies, of course, also known as lightning bugs. Over all the years that I have lived here they have never failed to appear at this time during the summer. They have never failed to ___26___me. They have never failed to make the world a little brighter. It has always been such a ___27___ too knowing that such wonderful creatures can shine their own light and make the ___28___ meadows look like the starry skies above. They make me want to share my own light as well, even if it is n’t that bright and even if it does ___29___ to blink now and then.

Robert Fulghum wrote, “I know some people who ____30____a lot of light. Because they have absorbed a lot of light themselves. They shine.” I don’t know how much light I have ____31____the years, but I do know that I won’t keep it ____32____ under a basket. I will shine it. I will share it. I will use it to ____33____as much goodness, love, joy, and wisdom into this world as I possibly can.

May you always ____34____ your light as brightly as you can. May you always share it with others as well. Remember that you are not asked to ____35____the whole world up. What you need to do is just to make your little corner of it a bit brighter.

语法填空

For 34 years, thousands of runners ___36___（take）on the Marathon des Sables, a 140-mile race through the Sahara. ___37___(consider) the world’s most difficult race, des Sables takes place over the course of six days through Morocco’s unforgiving Sahara.

At 46, Amy Palmiero-Winter is not what most picture when they think of ___38___ athlete, but for her, running has been a lifelong passion: an escape, a comfort, a calling. So, when a careless driver crashed into her motorcycle 25 years ago and damaged her left leg, she did everything she could

___39___（save）it.

She couldn’t imagine not running. But three years and 25 operations later it became obvious that her leg would never ___40___（true）recover. But hardships couldn’t keep her from running. In fact, they may have pushed her ___41___（close）towards it. “When something bad happened to me, I went out for a run. It kept me from any darkness.” Palmiero-Winter said. After recovering from her amputation, she tried running again. Struggling ___42___low-tech artificial legs, in 2004 she placed second in the Silver Strand Half Marathon. Today, she holds 11 world records and countless awards, ___43___（include）the James E. Sullivan Award and others, ___44___recognized her as the world’s top amateur athlete nearly a decade ago.

But as her latest ____45____（achieve）at the Marathon des Sables shows, she’s nowhere near done.

【答案】36. have taken

37. Considered

38. an 39. to save

40. truly 41. closer

42. with 43. including

44. which 45. achievement

【解析】

本文为一篇记叙文，讲述了46岁的Amy虽然经历了车祸，但依旧热爱跑步，并参加了很多马拉松赛事，并且获得了许多荣誉。

【36题详解】

考查时态语态。句意：34年来，数千名跑步者参加了穿越撒哈拉沙漠的140英里马拉松赛。

根据句中的For 34 years 可知，句子需要使用现在完成时。句子主语thousands of runners 是复数含义，并且跟谓语动词take on 又是主动关系。故填have taken 。

【37题详解】

考查非谓语动词。句意：被认为是世界上最困难的

比赛，德萨布尔斯在摩洛哥无情的撒哈拉沙漠中进行了六天的比赛。句子的谓语动词为takes place ，所以consider 要以非谓语的形式出现。consider 和逻辑主语des Sables 之间为被动关系，译为“被认为”。故填Considered 。

【38题详解】

考查冠词。句意：46岁的艾米·帕米耶罗·温特并不是大多数人心目中的运动员，但对她来说，跑步一直是她毕生的热情：一种逃避、一种安慰、一种召唤。可数名词athlete 前需要冠词修饰，Amy 只是运动员中的其中一个，所以表示泛指概念，需要用不定冠词，athlete 又是以元音音素开头的。故填an 。

【39题详解】

考查非谓语动词。句意：所以，25年前，一个粗心的司机撞上了她的摩托车，弄坏了她的左腿，她想尽一切办法挽救她的左腿。句中she could 是省略了谓语动词do 的定语从句，主句的主语为did ，所以save 要以非谓语的形式出现。根据句意可知，她所做的一切都是为了挽救她的左腿，所以此处用不定式表目的。故填to save 。

【40题详解】

考查副词。句意：但3年25次手术后，她的腿显然永远无法真正康复。根据句意可知，此处是要修饰动词recover ，所以需要填入副词。故填truly 。

【41题详解】

考查形容词比较级。句意：事实上，困难可能把她推得更近了。根据句意可知，此处表达的意思是“更近了”，所以需要用比较级。故填closer 。

【42题详解】

考查介词。句意：她与低技术人造腿进行抗争，并且在2004年银滩半程马拉松比赛中获得第二名。固定搭配struggle with...表示“与……作斗争”。故填with 。

【43题详解】

考查非谓语动词。如今，她拥有11项世界纪录和无数奖项，其中包括James E.Sullivan 奖和其他奖项。在大约十年前，在她获得这些奖项之后，就已将她视为世界顶级业余运动员。句中谓语动词为holds ，所以include 以非谓语的形式出现。include 与awards 又是主动关系，所以填including 作定语修饰awards 。故填including 。

【44题详解】

考查定语从句。句意见上一题。先行词为“she holds 11 world records and countless awards”这句话，定语从句中缺主语，所以用关系代词which引导非限制性定语从句。故填which。

【45题详解】

考查名词。句意：但正如她在马拉松赛上的最新成就所展示的那样，她还远远没有完成。根据形容词性的物主代词her以及形容词最高级latest可知，此处需要填入名词。故填achievement。

Ms. Clay, the art teacher, stood at the front of the room. “Class, next Friday our school is going to have an art competition,” s he announced. Ms. Clay was a great teacher, and Risha liked her a lot. But this announcement made Risha nervous. “Everyone in the school will create a piece of artwork to show in the library. You can use the different types of artwork we have been studying.” Ms. Clay was quite excited when she spoke while Risha found herself sinking lower in her chair.

Risha had the whole weekend to work on her project, but she could not think of anything to do. On Monday, Risha felt frightened, so after school Risha asked Ms. Clay if she could write an art paper instead of doing an art project.

“I understand this project scared you, Risha,” Ms. Clay said. “Just remember, you can creat any kind of art you want.” Ms. Clay smiled at her. “Art is a person’s way of expressing hi s or her feelings—it isn’t always painting, drawing, or cutting. I know you will think of something very
