But starting this month, the new Xi'an-Chengdu high-speed railway will shorten this travel time to three hours.The 643-kilometer line is China's first high-speed railway to run through the QinlingMountains, which form a natural boundary(分界线) between China's north and south. With a speed of 250 km per hour, it's also the first mountain-heavy train line to provide a 4G network.Along the way, the train passes through two areas for rare(稀有) wild animals — one for pandas and the other for crested ibises(朱鹮).To reduce the railway's influence on the animals, workers and experts have designed and built the railway to be environmentally friendly, China Daily reported.In September, there were 345 wild pandas living in the Qinling Mountains. China now has 1, 864 wild pandas in total, according to the Xinhua News Agency.To avoid disturbing the pandas, the railway was designed to run through tunnels(隧道) within the area. Protective shields(防护屏) are placed near the entrance of each tunnel to stop animals from going in.To avoid hurting the thousands of crested ibises that fly near one part of the railway, protective nets have been set up along the tracks to make sure the birds will not fly into a train.The nets are about 32 km long and 4 meters high. Experts tested different shapes and materials for building the nets before making their final choice.(A report in December, 2017)（1）From this month, it will take to travel from Xi'an to Chengdu by the high-speedtrain.A . 16 hoursB . 13 hoursC . 6 hoursD . 3 hours（2）Which of the following is TRUE about the new Xi'an-Chengdu railway?A .

To avoid damaging the mountains.D . To help the train run through tunnels quietly.（4）What are experts using to stop animals from going into the tunnels?A . Entrances.B . Tracks.C .

They went out every day. Sometimes they killed animals and sometimes animals killed them. Life was difficult and dangerous. Women had to go out every day, too. They collected roots, fruit and grass. Then, one day more than 10,000 years ago, a woman dropped some grassseeds near her home in the Middle East. They grew, and the first wheat was 37 . The idea grew, too. Women planted roots and fruit trees. Then they could stay at home and look after the children and the animals. Women like baby animals. Archaeologists think that women 38 the first domestic animals: dogs, cows sheep and goats. That idea grew, too. Then their husbands did not have to go hunting for meat. They stayed at home.

What do you know about exercise?Some people think that in case you want to reduce the waistline, the best way is to do waist exercises. In fact, exercise burns fat from all over the body and not from one p41．of body. When you reduce the fat t42．your body, you will certainly reduce your waistline, too! Exercise only twice a week is not enough, because unexercised muscles lose their strength very quickly. After 48 to 72 hours, you must use the muscles again to keep good physical fitness. So if you have enough time, exercise every day is best.Some people think that in order to lose weight you should always "work up a good sweat" when exercising. That is a w 43．idea. Sweating only lowers body temperature so that you won’t overheat; it does not help you reduce your weight. After exercise, you ma y weigh less, but this is b44．of water loss. Once you replace the water, you replace the weight.Exercise is very important for everyone. It keeps us healthy. One of the best exercises is walking. Walking helps circulation of blood throughout the body, and it has a direct e 45．on your feeling of health. And if your breathing does not return to normal in minutes after you finish exercising, that means you have exercised too m 46．. You’d better spend 20minutes a day exercising, and that will keep you feeling good.七、阅读回答问题Answer the questions.For millions of people, the American dream of owning a home seemed to be slipping out of reach.“Maybe young couples can no longer afford to buy a ready-made house as their parents did,’’ says 40-year-old building instructor Pat Hennin. “But they can still have a home. Like their pioneer ancestors, they can build it themselves, and at less than half the cost of aready-made house.”The owner-builders came from every occupational group, although surprisingly few are professional building workers. Many take the plunge with little or no experience. “I learned how to build my house from reading books,” says John Brown, who built a six-room home for $25,000 in High Falls, New Jersey. “If you have patience and the carpent ry（木工）skill to make a bookcase, you can build a house.”An astonishing 50 percent of these owner builders hammer every nail, 1ay every pipe, and wire every switch with their own hands. The rest contract （承包）for some parts of the task. But even those who just act as contractors and finish the insides of their homes can save from 30 percent to 45 percent of what a ready-made home would cost.One survey revealed that 60 percent of owner-builders also design their homes. Many others buy commercial house plans for less than $100 or use plans available from the U. S. Department of Agriculture.47．Maybe American young people can’t afford to buy a ready-made house, can they?________________________________________________________________48．How can American young couples have a home?________________________________________________________________49．Are all the owner-builders experienced?________________________________________________________________50．Why do the owner-builders build houses with their own hands?________________________________________________________________51．How many percent of the owner-builders design their homes?________________________________________________________________52．How much does a commercial house plan cost?________________________________________________________________参考答案1．D【解析】【详解】句意：这个编辑写了一篇800字的文章，这篇文章在报纸上出版了。

Until recently, few people took the saying very seriously. Now however, doctors have begun to study laughter and the effects(作用) it has on the human body. They have found evidence that laughter really can improve people's health.Tests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on the body. People watched funny films while doctors checked their heart rate, blood pressure, breathing and muscles. It was found that laughter has similar effects to physical exercise. It increases blood pressure, the heart rate and the rate of breathing. It also works several groups of muscles in the face, the stomach and even the feet. If laughter exercises the body, it must be helpful.Other tests have shown that laughter appears to make the effect of pain on the body less. In one experiment doctors produced pain in groups of students who listened to different radio programs. The group which could bear the pain for the longest time was the group which listened to a funny program. The reason why laughter can make pain less seems to be that it helps to produce endorphins( 内啡肽) in the brain. These are natural chemicals which make both stress and pain less.There is also some evidence to suggest that laughter helps the body's immune system that is the system which fights infection(感染). In an experiment, one group of students watched a funny video while another group served as the control group--in other words, a group with which to compare the first group. Doctors checked the blood of the students in both groups and found that the people in the group that watched the video had an increase in the activity of their white blood cells that is the cells which fight infection.As a result of these discoveries, some doctors and psychiatrists(精神病学) in the United States now hold laughter clinics, in which they try to improve their patients' condition by encouraging them to laugh. They have found that even if their patients do not really feel like laughing, making them smile is enough to produce good effects similar to those caused by laughter.（1）We learn from the first paragraph that laughter .A . is good for one's healthB . has something to do with some illnessC . has been studied long sinceD . has no effect on the body（2）Doctors have found that laughter .A . keeps down blood pressureB . has similar effects to physical exerciseC . decreases the heart rateD . increases stress（3）Which of the following statements is NOT true of laughter according to the passage?A . It makes pain less.B . It exercises the body.C . It improves the body's immune system.D . It can cure cancer.（4）In a laughter clinic doctors .A . laugh at their patientsB . encourage their patients to laughC . smile when they don't feel like laughingD . never stop laughing（5）The writer's attitude(态度) towards laughter is .A . criticalB . doubtfulC . positiveD . negative3. （10分）阅读理解Black is at City Art CenterA Trip into a Young Farmer's MindChickens that can talk?

Reading comprehensionA. Choose the best answerMy father was Chief Engineer of a business ship, which was sunk in World War Ⅱ. The book Night of the Uboats told the story.MemoriesIn September, 1940, my mother, sister and I went to Swansea, where my father’s ship was getting ready to sail. We brought him a family photograph to be kept with him at all times and keep him safe.Then I remember my mother lying face down, crying. She had heard from a friend that the ship had been sunk by a torpedo（鱼雷）.I can remember the arrival of the telegram（电报）, which in those days always brought bad news. My grandmother opened it. It read, “Safe. Love Ted.”My most clear memory is being woken and brought down to sit on my father’s knee, his arm in a bandage（绑带）.He was judged unfit to return to sea and took a shore job in Glasgow for the rest of the war. For as long as I can remember, he had a weak heart. Mother said it was caused by the torpedoes. He said it was because of the cigarettes. Whichever, he died suddenly in his early 50s.Ten years later I read Night of the U-boats and was able to complete the story.TorpedoOne torpedo struck the ship. Father was in the engine room, where the third engineer was killed. He shut down the engines to slow the ship making it easier for it to be given up.By the time he got on deck（甲板）he was alone. Every lifeboat was gone except one which had stuck strongly. When he tried to cut it free, it moved against the ship, hurting his hand and arm. He had no choice but to jump -- still with the photograph in his pocket.Three days later, he and other survivors were safe in Glasgow. All 23 with him signed the back of the photograph.In my room is the book and the photograph. Often, glass in hand, I have wondered how I would have dealt with an explosion（爆炸）, a sinking ship, a jump into a huge ocean and a wait for rescue?

Answer the questionsAs we grow up, we gradually cultivate（培养）a set of our own values or beliefs. These are influenced by society, our family, the education we receive and so on. Once this value system is set up, it’s not easy to change later in life. Financial experts say that everyone also has his own belief of how to manage his money. According to our different values, experts put us in three categories （分类）--- the ant, the cricket（蟋蟀）and the snail.★The ant -- work firstJust like ants who work heart and soul in summer in order to store food for winter, these people don’t care about enjoying the moment. They work very hard and save money they make so that they can enjoy life when they get old and retire. The ant loves to save, but they could make more out of their money if they were willing to invest in some funds and stocks（基金和股票）with low risk.★The cricket -- fun firstThe cricket wants to enjoy everything now and doesn’t think too much about the future. They even borrow money when they really want something. Many young people now belong to this group. These people have little savings. When they get old, they might have problems. They should learn to save and buy insurance.★ The snail --- life under pressureThe snail refers to people who make life difficult for themselves. They take big long-term loans（贷款）from the bank in order to buy things such as luxury houses. They are happy to take big loans even though they are not sure they can afford them. This can cause problems in the future. They should plan more carefully.1.
