So, what can you do to develop a positive body image? Here are some ideas.Recognize your strengths. Different body types are good for different things. What does your body do well? Maybe your speed, strength, or coordination makes you better than others at a certain sport. That may be basketball, table tennis, mountain biking, dancing, or even running.

B “You’ll be blind by the time you’re twenty-five,” a doctor at Children’s Hospital predicted. “Your blood sugars are much too high.” It consumed me. No matter where I was or what I was doing, it was overhead like a dark cloud, waiting for just the right opportunity to break open and destroy my world. I liked painting. Losing myself in painting filled me with peace. Painting provided me with the only place where I could escape from those threatening words. When I was twenty-one, my right eye went blind. Precisely three months after my twenty-fifth birthday, I had a massive hemorrhage (大出血) in my left eye because of an accident. For the next twenty years, vision came and went.I went through many eye operations in an attempt to keep my vision. But after one final operation, I lost the battle and all remaining vision. And I buried all dreams of painting. Desperate, I enrolled in (注册) a sixteen-week program for the blind and visually impaired (损伤的). I learned personal adjustment and the use of a computer with adaptive software.A whole new world opened up to me through th is program. “Jawsand Window-Eyes are leading software for the blind,” my instructor told me. “You can use the Internet, e-mail and Microsoft with all its tools and features.” It’s amazing! Hope went up for the first time in years. “By learning how to use hot keys to control the mouse, you can use Microsoft Access, Excel and Powerpoint,” my instructor added. For the next several years, I learned that when one door closes, another door opens. There are plenty of choices available for the blind and visually impaired through the gift of technology. Not only do I have a speaking computer, but I have a speaking watch, alarm clock and calculator. 4. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 1 refer to? A. The right opportunity. B. Losing my sight in the future. C. Consuming too much sugar D. The children’s hospital. 5. What happened when the author was 25 years old? A. He gave up painting. B. He went blind completely C. He injured one of his eyes. D. He picked up a new hobby 6. What brought a turning point to the author? A. A special course.B. A meaningful eventC. An inspiring speech.D. An important interview. 7. What does the author intend to tell us? A. No pain, no gain. B. Every man has his price. C. Nothing is impossible to a willing heart. D. Be optimi stic in the face of life’s difficulties. C These days, I walk down the steps leading toward the south end of the All England Club in Wimbledon, and still look for the Crow’s Nest, a small green observation tower with an outer ladder that I used to climb on for a wide view of the grounds, but which has since been knocked down. The Crow’s Nest was a particularly useful point, because it allowed a tennis writer to keep track of the action on as many as 10 outside courts at a time. At days end, reporters from different nations would share notes on what they had observed all over the grounds. Twenty-seven years later, the press room has touch screens thatallow us to watch live videos from any court, and even go back to watch key moments in key matches long after they have finished. You could cover Wimbledon without leaving your seat. But that is a bit like spending all your time ordering room service and looking up fun facts on Wikipedia. More than at any other tennis tournament, there is also an appetite for stories that deal with the setting, the history and the traditions. If they change the price of the fish tacos (鱼肉卷饼) at the United States Open, it’s not a story. If they change the price of the strawberries and cream, the signature treat at Wimbledon. It’s time to email your editor using capital letters. The new retractable (可伸缩的) roof was put in place in 2009. Until then, you always had to have a rainy-day story in your notebook because there were no guarantees any matches would be played. Now tennis is a sure thing on Centre Court, which has made tennis reporters a bit less creative. But at least it guarantees us daily access to the most atmospheric place in the sport. So much has changed, but Centre Court remains true to its original spirit: more a theater than a stadium. Catching that feeling is part of covering Wimbledon, too. 8. What did the author do on the Crow’s Nest in the past? A. He made friends with reporters. B. He reported on tennis matches. C. He appreciated the beautiful scenery. D. He exchanged experiences with tennis players. 9. What does the author think of the new way of covering Wimbledon? A. It lacks fun. B. It is expensive C. It is not convenient. D. It is not quick enough 10. Why does the author mention strawberries and cream? A. To compare popular foods.B. To introduce the typical treat at Wimbledon.C. To describe people’s craze for traditional dishes.D. To show the traditions of Wimbledon are an attraction. 11. What difference does the new roof make? A. Audiences have easier access to atennis court. B. There’s less fun in watching Wimbledon indoors. C. Reporters are struggling to find original material.D. rainy-day stories about Wimbledon have become history. D On January 13, 2016, France became the first country in the world to pass a law requiring supermarkets to donate food that is approaching its expiration date (保质期) instead of throwing it away. The regulation that applies to supermarkets over 4,000 square feet requires stores to sign official donation agreements with local food banks. The law also makes it illegal for stores to pour water over nearly-expired food, or store it inside locked warehouses until it is picked up by the garbage trucks. These measures are often undertaken by supermarkets to prevent the hungry from searching for food through the dustbins. Though that may appear cruel, the stores claim they do it to avoid potential food poisoning that could occur if the product is on its way past its expiry. Those who do not obey the new law face the risk of heavy fines. Also, excess goods like yogurt or milk that are likely to go bad quickly are now allowed to be donated directly to the food banks. Though this has always been possible, the current process is long and complex, making it difficult for producers to give away the food in a timely manner. France’s food banks are of course thrilled about the possibility of receiving extra food. Jacques Bailet, who heads a network of French food banks called the Banques Alimentaires, says that of the 110,000 tons of goods received annually, only 36,000 tons comes from supermarkets. Bailet estimates (估计) that just a 15% increase in supermarket donations would translate to over 10 million additional meals to feed the hungry each year. Though this is a great first step, Arash Dermabarsh, the activist responsible for the grassroots movement that led to the ban, is not done. He now wants to extend the law to otherplaces like restaurants and also try to convince other countries in the European Union to pass similar regulations. These steps are necessary because of the over 9 million tons of food wasted in France; an astonishing 67% is thrown away by consumers, with supermarkets and restaurants making up the rest.12. What should stores do with nearly-expired food? A. Throw it away. B. Send it to the hungry. C. Store it in refrigerators.D. Give it away to food banks. 13. What does the underlined word “excess” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Extra. B. Cheap.C. Seasonal.D. Returned. 14. What might Bailet agree with about the French food banks? A. They have a lot of expired food. B. They will get much benefit from the law. C. Their food is enough for the people in need. D. Their food mainly comes from supermarkets. 15. What does Dermabarsh plan to do? A. Build more food banks in France. B. Make the law take effect in more places.C. Organize a campaign to promote this law.D. Raise consumers awareness of waste reduction. 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。

According to a recent poll, one third of the 3,000 people surveyed said they were “coasting” at work. This may come as a surprise in an age when so many people spend so much time complaining about how busy they are. But most of this talk about busyness is nonsense. According to a study by researchers at Oxford University, we donot, in fact, spend more time working than we have in the past. On some measures, the amount we work has gone down. Instead, many people just have jobs filled with tasks that don’t really need to be done.The way we look at coasting has radically changed. In the past, being relaxed and not burdened with too much work within your organisation was a sign of status. Now, being extremely busy shows you are important. If you are not extremely overburdened, then you are seen as a slacker, a lazy person.This does not make sense. Most people are not as busy as they say they are. In fact, most pressing tasks at work are often unrelated to productivity. Many busy people are actually overburdened with telling others how busy they are. Being overly-focused on your job may make you feel important, but it’s likely to annoy friends, co-workers a nd your family. What’s more, being super-busy all the time is not good for you. A Cornell University study found that people who are overburdened with work tend to have a worse sense of wellbeing than those who are more relaxed. The researchers also found that being super-busy is bad for your career. Those who reported working very intensely were associated with poorer career outcomes.So, perhaps coasters are not a drag on productivity. Maybe they have worked out that the secret to a productive and healthy life is not being too busy, and certainly not talking continuously about how busy you are. We should remember Bertrand Russell’s adage: “One of the symptoms of an approaching nervous breakdown is the belief that one’s work is terribly important.”4.What can we infer from the findings of the Oxford University study?A.People have a false impression about how busy they are at work.B.Less busy employees have a greater likelihood of promotion.C.One third of employees don’t consider themselves to be busy.D.People overburdened at work are likely to feel more energised.5.In the 19th century which of these people would probably have been the LEAST busy in their job?A.A bank clerk.B.A bank owner.C.An office cleaner.D.An office secretary.6.Why might “coasters” actually be successful in their work?A.They do not feel threatened by a challenging task.B.They work more co-operatively with their colleagues.C.They are able to focus on the most important and necessary tasks.D.They are often more intelligent and able to complete their work faster.7.Which of the following best summarizes the author’s attitude?A.He expresses no personal opinion about the topic.B.He thinks that lazy people are in fact the best workers.C.He is sympathetic towards difficulties of super-busy workers.D.He believes that busyness at work does not equal effectiveness.Most children are full of the most impractical schemes for becoming policemen, firemen or train drivers when they grow up. When I was a child, however, I did not have such ordinary ambitions. I was going to have my own zoo.At the time, this did not seem to me, and still does not seem, an unreasonable idea. My friends and relatives, who had long found me strange because I showed little interest in anything that did not have fur or feathers, accepted this as just another example of my strangeness. They felt that, if they ignored my often-repeated remarks about owning my own zoo, I would eventually grow out if it.As the years passed, however, my determination to have my own zoo grew increasingly strong, and eventually, after going on a number of trips to bring back animals for other zoos, I was ready to start my own.From my latest trip to West Africa, I had brought back a considerable collection and animals which were living, temporarily I assured her, in my sister’s suburban garden in Bournemouth. After a number of unsuccessful attempts to convince the local council to support my plans, I began to investigate the possibility of starting my zoo on the island of Jersey in the English Cannel.I was introduced to a man named Hugh Fraser who, I was told, was a broad-minded, kindly soul. He would show me around the island and point out suitable sites. So, my wife and I flew to Jersey and were met by Hugh who drove us to his family home, probably one of the most beautiful old houses on the island. There was a huge walled garden with lots of outbuildings all built in the beautiful local stone. Turning to my wife, I said, “What a marvelous place for a zoo!”To my relief, Hugh Fraser did not think my idea absurd, and asked whether I really meant what I said. Slightly embarrassed, I replied that I had meant it, but added hastily that I realized it was impossible. Hugh said he did not think it was as impossible as all that.He went on to explain that the house and grounds were too big for him, and so he wanted to move to a smaller place in England. Would I care to consider renting the property for the purpose of establishing my zoo? I could not imagine more attractive surroundings for my purposes, and by the time lunch was over, the bargain had been sealed.The alarm displayed by all who knew me when this news was announced was intense. The only exception to the general chorus of disapproval was my sister. Although she thought it a mad scheme, at least it would rid her back garden of the assorted jungle creatures who were straining her relationship with her neighbours.8.How did the author’s friends and relatives respond to his childhood dream?A.They approved of his idea.B.They paid no attention to him.C.They believed he’d give it up later on.D.They thought he was overly ambitious.9.What made the author decide to start his zoo on the island of Jersey?A.Refusal by the local council to support his idea.B.Inspiration from his last trip to West Africa.C.Failure to get donation from other zoos.D.The need for a larger suburban garden.10.Why did Hugh eventually agree to rent his property to the author?A.Hugh also loved animals very much.B.Hugh found it hard to manage the property by himself.C.Hugh didn’t like the place so decided to move to England.D.Hugh was moved by the author’s eagerness to establish a zoo.11.What can be inferred about the author’s sister?A.She was fond of chorus.B.She was sure of his success.C.Sh e didn’t get on well with her parents.D.She was being troubled by his animals.Amid growing global condemnation of elephant riding as a tourist activity, Yok Don National Park in southern Vietnam has ended the practice and replaced it with the first ethical (伦理的) elephant experience of its kind in the country.The formally captive group of four elephants were released from their chains earlier this month and no longer carry tourists on rides through the park. Visitors can instead observe the animals roaming freely in their natural habitat.The park worked on the initiative with Animal Protection Asia, which campaigns for long-term changes in animal welfare and tourism in Vietnam. The official agreement between the charity and the state-run park was signed on 13 July, and runs until April 2023, with the first tours taking place earlier this month. Over the next five years, it is hoped that the new model will provide as much or even more revenue for owners as riding, and encourage mahouts (管象人) and elephant tourism companies to follow.This project has entirely changed the lives of the elephants at the park and it also provides a much better experience for the tourists. Misuse has been replaced with respect, and the animals look much healthier and happier than before.Awareness of the adverse effects of elephant riding has increased in recent years, with a growing number of tourists avoiding cruel attractions and supporting welfare centres and animal protection instead, alongside an increasing number of tour operators refusing to sell elephant treks that include riding.Many of the elephants used in riding and other activities, such as painting or performing tricks, are caught as babies from the wild, their mothers often killed. Once captured, they typically undergo intensive conditioning known as “crushing the spirit”, where they are kept in tiny pens and beaten and starved, sometimes for weeks. Once trained, many of the animals eventually die from exhaustion. Campaigners and charities hope to continue to educate the industry in Vietnam and around the world, and show how profitable ethical elephant experiences, with retired and rescued animals, can be, instead.12.What is true for most working elephants in Vietnam?A.They are allowed to roam freely.B.They are chained up and cruelly treated.C.They outnumber those found in the wild.D.They are kept with their mothers during training.13.What is the goal of Animal Protection Asia?A.It seeks to raise money for national parks’ operation.B.It wants to organize more sightseeing tours in Vietnam.C.It hopes to set a new model for elephant tourism companies.D.It expects to eventually free all the working elephants in Asia.14.Which of the following best explains “adverse” underlined in paragraph 5? A.Practical. B.Unexpected.C.Financial. D.Negative.15.What can be a suitable title for the text?A.Say no to elephant ridingB.A new profitable modelC.Vietnam takes the leadD.Negative effects of elephant tourism二、七选五EarwormMost people have had songs stuck in their heads at some point. The scientific name for this is involuntary musical imagery (INMI), which simply means that people do not choose to keep the songs in their heads, but that it happens unconsciously. Experts have nicknamed this condition “earworm,” even though it is not an actual worm, and it does not take place in the ear. 16.It occurs when a catchy tune “sticks” in a person’s mind. What makes a song stick depends on the individual. Some people get stuck on their favorite songs, while others end up fixated on songs they find annoying.17.It can be brought on after recently hearing a song, or it can be triggered by a memory. Although earworm can happen to anyone at any time, certain people are more likely than others to suffer from it. Most commonly, musicians experience it, but people who simply listen to music more frequently than others are also more prone to earworm.No evidence has proven one effective cure, but anything that disturbs the brain can help. 18.For example, actively chewing gum might switch the brain’s focus from the repeating song to the moving jaw. Engaging in a task that requires concentration can remove the pesky earworm as well. However, if the task requires too much effort, it can actually prolong the earworm. 19.While earworm can be very annoying, there is no evidence that suggests it is actuallyharmful. 20.After all, these songs repeat automatically with no effort. What if science could apply this information to learning? What if everyone could learn new things without having to try so hard? If scientists can figure out how to tap into this type of memory, learning might look different in the future.A.We have a tendency to move to earworms.B.Rather, it takes place in the memory centers of the brain.C.One possibility to help shift the brain is to occupy it with a new activity.D.Nobody knows exactly why a particular song gets caught in a person’s brain.E.This is because the mind tends to wander to escape the difficulty of the job at hand.F.Psychologists have long been looking for ways to turn off those unwelcome thoughts.G.In fact, some experts are studying earworm to see what they can learn about memory centers.三、完形填空I’m sitting in a quiet hotel room. It’s just past noon, late July, and I’m listening to the 21 sounds of a life-or-death struggle going on a few feet away.

After getting home, my 13-year-old son asked me to read one chapter to him. So I read the chapter about spending my pocket money as a nine-year-old child.The story took place at a lunch counter, where I dreamed of ordering a banana split. Colorful balloons were hung above the counter and a sign said “Pop a balloon and pay 1 cent to 63 cents for a banana split!” As I was given only 50 cents for cleaning the doghouse, I didn’t dare to ask my p arents for any more pocket money without doing more work or risk asking anyone else. So I kept my wish to myself.Frankie listened carefully, as I read the final sentences of the chapter, “I watched as others selected a balloon to pop and dreamed about the opportunity to take my chance. But it never happened.”The next morning, Frankie led me to the kitchen. I couldn’t believe my eyes. The table was covered in a pile of balloons. Frankie handed me 50 cents and a fork. “Pop one!” he urged. With tears in my eyes, I broke one. A piece of paper fell out of the balloon.“What does it say?” Frankie asked. “Fifty cents,” I whispered, too moved to speak loudly. Frankie asked, “Well, do you have 50 cents?” I handed him the money. “OK!” Then Frankie pulled out a banana split from the refrigerator.I hugged Frankie hard. We took turns popping the other balloons until I finally got the 1-cent balloon. It was a long-time coming, but worth the wait.It hit me that the first step in making any wish come true is giving it a voice.4.The author read the chapter to Frankie because .A.she wanted to get feedback from FrankieB.Frankie asked the author to read it to himC.she was used to telling a bedtime story to himD.Frankie had a strong desire for knowledge5.What can we infer about the author from the second paragraph?A.She spent money wisely when she was a kid.B.She had enough money to do whatever she liked.C.She earned her pocket money by doing housework.D.She had no close friends to share her secret wish.6.Seeing what Frankie did for her, the author felt .A.comfortable and happy B.puzzled and excitedC.awkward and satisfied D.surprised and grateful7.The author learned that .A.it is important to express one’s wishesB.it is comforting to have a kid aroundC.experiences in childhood affect us later in lifeD.wishes can come true by just voicing themIn February, FEDEX launched a robot capable of replacing a pizza delivery driver by bringing food right to your door, which indicates more companies may soon automate (使自动化) not only processes, but full business lines.These types of moves could be disastrous to work. Between 1987 and 2017, manufacturing output grew 80 percent, but the number of workers dropped dramatically. This hit cities hard, leading to shrinking populations and the wide difference between urban places we see now. Numerous studies show that automation isn’t equally affecting the workforce across all sectors. While it has negatively impacted a portion of the economy, it has helped to lift up other sectors, such as computer science and health care.The real question is how you counteract inequality.To start with, we should train people with the skills they need. To minimize job losses and embrace positive changes, we need to focus on the great value humans bring to the table. Jobs requiring soft skills like time management, active listening, cooperation, and judgmentand decision-making, and jobs that are in high-touch industries are much less likely to be automated.We must make joint efforts to strengthen and fix the holes in the safety net. While the 2020 presidential candidates are starting a conversation about how to accomplish this, cities are already leading by experimenting with basic income, passing higher minimum wage laws, carrying out paid family leave and driving policy solutions that support workers and families.In the end robots won’t take all the jobs, but they might take yours. What we do about it, though, is up to us.8.What will possibly happen if companies use robots in full business lines?A.There will be a sharp drop in manufacturing output.B.There will be a shrink in population across China.C.The negative impacts will outweigh the positive ones.D.The workforce in various fields may be affected differently.9.Which of the following is more likely to be automated?A.Bringing dishes to the table in a restaurant.B.Helping to manage one’s time efficiently.C.Communicating effectively with co-workers.D.Helping make the right judgement and decision.10.How is Paragraph 5 developed?A.By providing data. B.By giving examples.C.By comparison. D.By analyzing.11.What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph mean?A.It is up to us whatever we do with the robots.B.It is up to us what jobs the robots will replace.C.We need to adapt ourselves to the changes accordingly.D.We have the confidence that robots will replace no jobs.DNA analysis has revealed family relationships between more than 10 generations of Stone Age people at megalithic (巨石的) tombs in Ireland and Sweden.The evidence suggests that megaliths, prehistoric large stone structures, sometimes acted as graves for family groups in northwestern Europe thousands of years ago. The latestfindings throw new light on the origins and social structure of the groups that built megaliths in this region—a history that has long been hidden in mystery.For their study, the international team of researchers analyzed the genomes—the complete set of genetic material in a cell—of 24 Stone Age individuals from five megalithic burial sites in Ireland, Scotland and Gotland, a large Swedish island in the Baltic Sea.This analysis showed that many of the individuals buried at each megalith, who all lived between 3,800 B.C.and 2,600 B.C., according to radiocarbon-dating of their remains, were closely related via family ties.The results also showed that the individuals buried at the megaliths were related to Neolithic farmers in northern and western Europe but genetically distinct from other hunter-gatherers. This was particularly noticeable at the Ansarve site on the island of Gotland.“The people buried in the Ansarve tomb are remarkably different on a genetic level compared to the individuals dug out from hunter-gather contexts, showing that the burial tradition in this megalithic tomb, which lasted for over 700 years, was performed by distinct groups with roots in the European Neolithic expansion,” Magdalena Fraser, co-first author from Uppsala University, said in the statement.12.What’s the significance of the new findings?A.It reveals the family ties between people in Ireland and Sweden.B.It implies that many people buried in the tombs were closely related.C.It indicates the long-hidden mystery concerning DNA analysis.D.It suggests that the megaliths became tombs thousands of years ago.13.How did the researchers reach their findings?A.By interviewing individuals. B.By travelling to different regions. C.By analyzing genes. D.By studying the burial sites. 14.Which is true according to the latest findings?A.Some people buried in the tombs were related to farmers.B.Few people buried in the tombs were genetically different.C.All the people buried at megaliths had family relationships.D.People buried in the Ansarve tomb were dug out 700 years later.15.What’s the main idea of this passage?A.Megaliths served as tombs thousands of years ago.B.People buried at the megaliths were recently analyzed.C.Latest findings shed light on a mystery about burials.D.Stone-Age people in Ireland and Sweden had close ties.二、七选五Camping essentials (必需品)Camping can be a fun and cheap family activity or vacation. But you do need quite a few supplies to manage life in the great outdoors. 16. . And remember to check your camping essentials.TentUnless you’re sleeping under the stars or you have a camper or an RV, don’t forget the obvious one: a tent! Check the measurements and user reviews when you are buying one.Sleeping Bag and PillowEven if the weather looks hot for your camping trip, bring a sleeping bag for every camper. Without a pillow, you would be facing a rocky night’s sleep. 17..18.Flashlights are another camping item. Bring multiple flashlights and extra batteries, and also consider buying a camping lantern. Lanterns are great because they shed more light in all directions and stand on their own so that you can play cards or games at night.The Anti-itch CreamKeep away from mosquitoes, black flies and other bi ters. Don’t forget the anti-itch cream to apply after insect bites. 19.. Ask doctors for which products to use.Campfire SuppliesMatches stored in a plastic bag, dry firewood and dry newspapers are all you need for a campfire. 20.. Each campfire should have its own stone campfire spot and many also provide a cast-iron shelf for cooking on. In addition, there are other camping essentials, such as kitchen items, bottled food and water, toilet paper, first-aid kits, and books and games. All the above can enrich your outdoor camping.A.Cards or gamesB.Flashlights and lanternsC.Kids also like having a pillow for the long car rideD.Bring clothes for all types of weather, from hot to rainy daysE.Find out what you’ll need to pack for your camping adventureF.You and your kids can do a quick hunt for dry wood for your fireG.Just keep in mind that many sprays contain high levels of chemicals三、完形填空This happened just a few minutes ago and now I want to share it with you.

Standing by her chair, looking at the ink bottle, pens, and white paper, I decided that the act of writing must be a most wonderful thing in the world.Years later, during her final illness, Mother kept different things for my sister and brother. "But the desk," she said again, "is for Elizabeth."I never saw her angry, never saw her cry. I knew she loved me; she showed in action. But as a young girl, I wanted to have heart-to-heart talks between mother and daughter.They never happened. And a gulf opened between us. I was "too emotional". But she lived "on the surface".As years passed and I had my own family. I loved my mother and thanked her for our happy family. I wrote to her in careful words and asked her to let me know in any way she chose that she did forgive me.My hope turned to disappointment, then little interest and, finally, peace - it seemed that nothing happened. I couldn't be sure that the letter had even got to Mother. I only knew that I had written it, and I could stop trying to make her into someone she was not.But the present of her desk told me, as she'd never been able to, that she was pleased that writing was my chosen work. I cleaned the desk carefully and found some papers inside - a photo of my father and a one-paper letter, folded and refolded many times. It was my letter."In any way you choose, Mother, you always chose the act that speaks louder than words."24. When did the writer begin to love her mother's desk?A. After Mother died.B. Before she became a writer.C. When she was a child.D. When Mother gave it to her.25. What does the passage want to show?A. Mother was actually kind in her heart to her daughter.B. Mother was too serious about her daughter in words.C. Mother wrote to her daughter in careless words.D. Mother wrote to her daughter in careful words.26. What does the underlined word "gulf" in the passage mean?A. Deep understanding between the old and the young.B. Different ideas between mother and daughter.C. Free talks between mother and daughter.D. Part of the sea going far in land.27. What did Mother do with her daughter's letter asking for forgiveness?A. She had never received the letter.B. For years, she often talked about the letter.C. She read the letter again and again till she died.D. She didn't forgive her daughter at all in all her life.CThe production of coffee beans is a huge, profitable business, but, unfortunately, full-sun production is taking over the industry and bringing about a lot of damage. The change in how coffee is grown from shade-grown production to full-sun production endangers the very existence of certain animals and birds, and even disturbs the world’s ecological balance.On a local level, the damage of the forest required by full-sun f ields affects the area’s birds and animals. The shade of the forest trees provides a home for birds and other species that depend on the trees’ flowers and fruits. Full-sun coffee growers destroy this forest home. As a result, many species are quickly dying out.On a more global level, the destruction of the rainforest for full-sun coffee fields also threatens (威胁) human life. Medical research often makes use of the forests' plant and animal life, and the destruction of such species could prevent researchers from finding cures for certain diseases. In addition, new coffee-growing techniques are poisoning the water locally, and eventually the world's groundwater.Both locally and globally, the continued spread of full-sun coffee plantations (种植园) could mean the destruction of the rainforest ecology. The loss of shade trees is already causing a slight change in the world's climate, and studies show that loss of oxygen-giving trees also leads to air pollution and global warming. Moreover, the new growing techniques are contributing to acidic (酸性的) soil conditions.It is obvious that the way much coffee is grown affects many aspects of life, from the local environment to the global ecology. But consumers do have a choice. They can purchase shade-grown coffee whenever possible, although at a higher cost. The future health of the planet and mankind is surely worth more than an inexpensive cup of coffee.28. What can we learn about full-sun coffee production from Paragraph 4?A. It limits the spread of new growing techniques.B. It leads to air pollution and global warming.C. It slows down the loss of shade trees.D. It improves local soil conditions.29. The purpose of the text is to________.A. entertainB. advertiseC. instructD. persuade30. Where does this text probably come from?A. An agricultural magazine.B. A medical journal.C. An engineering textbook.D. A tourist guide.31. Which of the following shows the structure of the whole text?(P:Paragraph)DEvery year more people recognize that it is wrong to kill wildlife for "sport." Progress in this direction is slow because shooting is not a sport for watching, and only those few who take part realize the cruelty and destruction.The number of gunners, however, grows rapidly. Children too young to develop proper judgments through independent thought are led a long way away by their gunning parents. They are subjected to advertisements of gun producers who describe shooting as good for their health and gun carrying as a way of putting redder blood in the veins (血管). They are persuaded by gunner magazines with stories honoring the chase and the kill. In school they view motion pictures which are supposedly meant to teach them how to deal with arms safely but which are actually designed to stimulate a desire to own a gun. Wildlife is disappearing because of shooting and because of the loss of wild land habitat. Habitat loss will continue with our increasing population, but can we slow the loss of wildlife caused by shooting? There doesn't seem to be any chance if the serious condition of our birds is not improved.Wildlife belongs to everyone and not to the gunners alone. Although most people do not shoot, they seem to forgive shooting for sport because they know little or nothing about it. The only answer, then, is to bring the truth about sport shooting to the great majority of people.Now, it is time to realize that animals have the same right to life as we do and that there is nothing fair or right about a person with a gun shooting the harmless and beautiful creatures. The gunners like to describe what they do asnobody happy. If, as they would have you believe, gun-carrying and killing improve human-character, then perhaps we should encourage war.32. According to the text, the films children watch at school actually_______.A. teach them how to deal with guns safelyB. praise hunting as character-huntingC. describe hunting as exerciseD. encourage them to have guns of their own33. Most people do not seem to be against hunting because_____.A. it helps to build human characterB. they have little knowledge of itC. it is too costly to stop killing wildlifeD. they want to keep wildlife under control34. The underlined word “agony” in the last paragraph probably means_____.A. formB. conditionC. painD. sadness35. It can be inferred from the text that the author seems to ______.A. worry about the existence of wildlifeB. blame the majority of peopleC. be in favor of warD. be in support of hunting21-23 DDA 24-27 CABC28-31 BDAA 32-35 DBCA肇庆市香山中学第一节阅读理解(共15 小题;每小题 2 分,满分30 分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

Number sense is not the ability to count. It is the ability to recognize a 1 in number. Human b eings are born with this ability. 2 ,experiments show that many animals are, too. For example, many birds have good number sense. If a nest has four eggs and you remove one, the bird will not 3 . However, if you remove two, the bird 4 leaves. This means that the bird knows the 5 between two and three.Another interesting experiment showed a bird’s 6number sense. A man was trying to take a photo of a crow(乌鸦)that had a nest in a tower, but the crow always left when she saw him coming. The bird did not 7 until the man left the tower. The man had an 8 .He took another man with him to the tower. One man left and the other stayed, but they did not 9 the bird. The crow stayed away until the second man left, too. The experiment was 10 with three men and then with four men. But the crow did not return to the nest until all the men were 11 .It was not until five men went into the tower and only four left that they were 12 able to fool the crow.How good is a human's number sense? It's not very good. For example, babies about fourteen months old almost always notice if something is taken away from a 13 group. But when the number goes beyond three or four, the children are 14 fooled.It seems that number sense is something we have in common with many animals in this world, and that our human 15 is not much better than a crow's.1.A. rise B. pattern C. change D. trend2.A.

DLong before iPhone, the cigarette was the companion of choice for restlessness. And long before Facebook and WeChat, it was tobacco that promised to better your social life. Now, quitting smartphones has become the new quitting smoking.Of course, technology does not yellow your teeth, cause disease or lead to cancer. But some individuals are so concerned that device addiction is damaging their mental health. In order to reduce their dependence, even in Silicon Valley, people are turning off the messages that constantly buzz for their attention, banning smartphones from the bedroom and, curiously, changing the colors on their screens to a less tempting scale of gray.The big tech companies will have to work out how to respond to this new generation of quitters. Facebook is the first to go public with its attempt, hoping its recent move can make the social network more homely.Last year the tech industry got a bad name ---Big Tech---with unfortunate echoes of other industries that have faced fierce opposition, including Big Tobacco. Like them, the tech industry has to reduce concern from a new generation of activist shareholders (股东) that are questioning its role in the world. These campaigns are never as fierce as those faced by Big Tobacco. In the 1990s, socially responsible investors refused to put money in tobacco stocks.It is far difficult for investors to challenge Big Tech and hard to separate the good these companies do in the world—connecting old friends and giving space for people to share their ideas—from the bad. In the meantime, stopping using technology remains problematic. In The World Without Mind: The Existential Threat of Big Tech, Franklin Foer argues that tech should be seen in a similar way to junk food: a convenience that some reject for more continuing nutrition.So we need to do more to turn the tide. In the same way that public service announcements made smoking around your children taboo (禁忌), we can warn parents against losing themselves in their smartphones while taking care of kids. We can also create no-smartphone zones at dinner. Eventually smartphones could be banned from all public places and help us give our attention tothe people around us instead.12. How did people keep close relationships with others in the past?A. By smoking.B. By drinking.C. By phoningD. By dining out.13. Why is the tech industry called Big Tech?A. It plays a bad role in the world.B. It is as big as Big Tobacco.C. It has an unfortunate name.D. It is a giant in Silicon Valley.14. What can we infer from Franklin Foer’s argument about the tech?A. It promotes social development.B. It is still favored by some people.C. It is worse than Big Tobacco.D. It offers continuing nutrition.15. Which can be the best title for the passage?A. Creating a No Smartphone LifeB. Smartphones Enrich Our Social LifeC. Smoking Does Greater Harm Than Smartphones DoD. Quitting Smartphones Is the New Quitting Smoking第一部分阅读理解(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, 从短文后每题所给的A. B. C和D四个选项中, 选出最佳选项, 并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
DThe Dunning-Kruger effect is a type of cognitive bias (偏见) in which people believe that they are smarter and more capable than they really are. Essentially, low ability people do not possess the skills needed to recognize their own incompetence. The combination of poor self-awareness and low cognitive ability leads them to overestimate their own capabilities. This phenomenon is something you have likely experienced in real life, perhaps at a holiday family gathering. Throughout the course of the meal, a member of your extended family begins spoutingoff on a topic, boldly announcing that he is correct and that everyone else’s opinion is stupid, uninformed, and just plain wrong. It may be plainly evident to everyone that this person has no idea what he is talking about, but he talks continuously, blithely oblivious (忘乎所以) to his own ignorance.The effect is named after researchers David Dunning and Justin Kruger, two social psychologists. They found incompetent people are not only poor performers, they are also unable to accurately assess and recognize the quality of their own work. These low performers were also unable to recognize the skill and competence levels of other people, which is part of the reason why they consistently view themselves as better, more capable, and more knowledgeable than others.This is the reason why students who earn failing scores on exams sometimes feel that they deserved a much higher score. They overestimate their own knowledge and ability and are incapable of seeing the poorness of their performance.“In many cases, the incompetent are often blessed with an inappropriate confidence, encouraged by something that feels to them like knowledge.” Dunning and his colleagues have also performed experiments where they ask respondents if they are familiar with terms related to subjects including politics, biology, physics, and geography. Along with genuine concepts, they added completely made-up terms. In one such study, approximately 90 percent of respondents claimed that they had at least some knowledge of the made-up terms.So what can you do to gain a more realistic assessment of your own abilities? Instead of assuming you know all there is to know about a subject, keep digging deeper. Once you gain greater knowledge of a topic, the more likely you are to recognize how much there is still to learn. Another effective strategy involves asking others for constructive criticism. While it can sometimes be difficult to hear, such feedback can provide valuable insights into how others perceive your abilities. Even as you learn more and get feedback, it can be easy to only pay attention to things that confirm what you think you already know. In order to minimize this confirmation bias, keep challenging your beliefs and expectations and seek out information that challenges your ideas.12. What can we learn about the Dunning-Kruger effect from the first paragraph?A. The Dunning-Kruger effect is rare for us to confirm.B. Incompetent people can be blind to their own ignorance.C. Ignorance leads people to underestimate their own abilities.D. Poor self-awareness and low cognitive ability have a close connection.13. According to the Dunning-Kruger effect, what do incompetent people tend to do?A. Underestimate their own skill levels.B. Feel more realistic about their competence.C. Recognize their own mistakes and lack of skills.D. Fail to recognize the genuine skill of other people.14. What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?A. The meaningless terms may cause respondents to feel ashamed.B. The participants pretended to know what they actually didn’t know.C. The aim of the experiments was to assess how smart the participants were.D. Most of the respondents claimed they were unfamiliar with the make-up terms.15. Which is the way to overcome the Dunning-Kruger Effect?A. Ask people for helpful feedbacks.B. Minimize the bias and challenges.C. Assume that you know everything.D. Gain confidence and trust yourself.第一部分阅读理解(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, 从短文后每题所给的A. B. C和D四个选项中, 选出最佳选项, 并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
