Beside him is a desperate mother yelling at the top of her lungs. Raising a well-behaved kid is really a head-scratching thing.If you took all the parenting styles around the world and ranked them by their gentleness, the Inuit(因纽特人) approach would certainly rank near the top. All the moms mention one golden role: Don't shout or yell at small children. Inuit's no-yelling policy is their central component to raising cool-headed kids. The culture views scolding, or even speaking to children in all angry voice, as inappropriate, although little kids are pushing parents' buttons.Playful "storytelling" is another trick to sculpting kids' behavior. But this storytelling differs hugely from those fairy tales full of moral lessons Parents "retell" what happened when a boy threw a tantrum(发脾气)by way of what Shakespeare would understand all too well: putting on a "drama". After the child has calmed down, the parents will review what happened when the child misbehaved, usually starting with a question: "Can you show us how to throw a tantrum?" Then the child has to think what he should do. If he takes the bait and performs the action, the mom will ask a follow-up question with a playful tone. For example: "Does that seem right?" or "Are you a baby?" She is getting across the idea that "big boys" won't throw a tantrum.Kids' brains are still developing the circuitry needed for self-control. What you do in response to your children's emotions shapes their brains. So next time, seeing your boy misbehave, try using the Inuit's storytelling approach. And don't forget to keep cool. After all, boys will be boys.(1). Which of the following best explains "pushing parents' buttons" underlined in Paragraph 2?A. Talking with parents.B. Playing with parents' buttons.C. Exposing parents' faults.D. Making parents annoyed.(2). What do we know about Inuit's "storytelling"?A. It aims at playing a trick on kids.B. It raises kids' awareness of morality.C. It comes after a child misbehaves.D. It analyzes Shakespeare's dramas.(3). What's the author's attitude to children's misbehavior?A. CautiousB. Tolerant.C. Uncaring.D. Skeptical.(4). What's the main idea of the text?A. Inuit's approach to parenting.B. Values of reading literary works.C. Causes of children's misbehavior.D. Parents' responses to "storytelling".3、The official opening of Beijing Daxing International Airport caps a long design and building process. Designed by the late architect Zaha Hadid and her Chinese partners, the airport is built for the future, having a terminal the size of 97 soccer grounds — as well as customer-service robots that provide travelers with flight updates and airport information.Called "starfish" by Chinese media for its shape of five concourses(大厅）connected to amain hall, Daxing aims to reduce walking for passengers. The airport authority has promised a distance of no more than 600 meters — about eight minutes of walking — between security checkpoints and the remotest boarding gates.This new modern airport employs a special intelligent lighting system, supported by eight big C-shaped columns that let in the sunlight, brightening the architecture and structure. Therefore it minimizes the need to use electric lighting.To offer a more refreshing travel experience, five outdoor courtyards — with the themes "Silk Garden" , "Tea Garden"，"Porcelain(瓷)Garden"，"Countryside Garden" and "Chinese Garden" —feature at the end of the five departure lounges for use by passengers waiting for their flights. Travelers will be scanned on cameras using facial recognition. Counters will he fully automated to capture face photos and relay them each part of the journey through the airport, including security and the departure gate.China is projected to overtake the United States as the world’s biggest air travel market by 2022. The "modest" initial operational target at Daxing is to accommodate 72 million passengers and 2 million tons of goods annually by 2025. The ambitious master plan calls for the building of a total of seven runways, and moving at least 100 million passengers and 4 million tons of goods a year through the airport.1. Why is the airport in a starfish-shaped design?A. To keep security checkpoints effective.B. To hold as many passengers as possible.C. To make boarding gates within easy reach.D. To get the main hall easier to be found.2. What can the airport’s lighti ng system be described as?A. Energy-saving.B. High-end.C. Passenger-friendly.D. Strangely-formed.3. What can be inferred about the five outdoor courtyards?A. They use popular techniques.B. They reflect the Chinese tradition.C. They follow the latest world trend.D. They promote Chinese goods to people.4. What do the numbers in the last paragraph indicate?A. The airport’s potential.B. The airport’s market.C. The airport’s facilities.D. The airport’s project.4、Metal-organic frameworks( MOFs) are compounds that are set to solve some tough challenges: producing water in the desert, removing greenhouse gases from the air and storing dangerous gases more safely.The Arizona desert is really dry. Anyone stuck in it without water would die from dehydration within three days, unless he had one of Omar Yaghi’s next-generation water harvesters, who is a chemist at the University of California, Berkeley. Although daytime humidity(湿度) is only about 10 percent, this rises to 40 percent at night, whic h means there’s enough water in the atmosphere to support life 一if it can be transformed into liquid form.That’s exactly what Yaghi’s invention does. It’s about the size of a small microwave oven, designed to suck the water from the air at night and turn it into chinking water the next day using only the heat of the sun as its power source. What makes it work is a special material called a MOF,which al normal temperatures attracts water molecules(分子) onto the surface of its internal small holes. Warm it up and get the water, each harvest producing one-third of a cup of pure drinking water. "A device the size of a washing machine could produce enough water for the basic needs of a household," says Yaghi.These crystalline(结晶的) groups of metals linked by organic molecules can be made into materials with an extremely high absorption ability, attracting specific molecules to their surfaces. In this way, MOFs cling to a variety of liquids and gases.MOFs work thanks to their distinctive structure. In fact, one MOF the size of a sugar cube has so many small holes that they would cover an area as large as six football fields. MOFs are also extremely stable, light and have many different uses: their molecular structure can be varied to attract specific molecules. Adding a small amount of heat or pressure causes the MOF to give what it5s holding. More than 70,000 different MOFs have been produced to date for various applications.1.Why is the Arizona desert mentioned in the second paragraph?A.To introduce water harvesters.B.To stress the importance of water.C.To express the urgent need for water there.D.To show the severity of its condition.2.What plays a vital role in water harvesters?A.Solar energy.B.Water molecules.C.MOFs’ internal small holes.D.Metal-organic frameworks.3.Which can explain the phrase " cling to” underlined in paragraph 4?A.Give off.B.Break down.C.Hold onto.D.Turn into.4.What will probably be covered in the following paragraphs?A.The future of the MOF technology.B.Other uses of the MOF technology.C.The improvement to the MOF technology.D.Possible limitations of the MOF technology.5、阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

英语高考模拟卷（四）1、 Asia is such a vast and diverse continent for anyone dreaming of an escape. Here are some best destinations to visit over the next 12 months.Xi’an,ChinaXi’an, China is supreme and then there’s the biggie (重要的事物)-the Army of Terracotta Warriors, celebrating 30 years as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2017.Xi’an is vast, but a relaxed way of living and recent openings have boosted an already superb accommodation market. A crop of new bars and cafes are thrown in here. There’s never been a better time to visit.South of Tokyo, JapanTwo cities in south of Tokyo are well worth visiting.Yokohama is just a 20-mixinte train journey from the capital and packs considerable appeal with its bayside location, architecture, beer and tasty cuisine.Less than an hour from Tokyo, fantastic seaside town Kamakura »s known for its surfing scene, but also offers an attractive selection of relaxed cafes and restaurants.Sri Lanka’s Hill CountrySri Lanka may be “so hot right now”, but Lonely Planet recommends a different experience.Try getting ahead of (and away from) the pack by taking a scenic train to Sri Lanka’s Hill Country for a wonderfully temperate escape from the nation’s humid coasts.This island owns a mountainous interior that is every bit as scenic as the coast, blessed by pleasantly cool temperatures that rarely above 21℃.Raja Ampat,Indonesia“Raja” means “king” and this grand title is apparent. Packed with white-sand beaches, lush jungle and unusual mushroom-shaped small islands. Raja Ampat is a biological hotspot.Home to some of the richest, most diverse coral reefs on the planet—over 200 diving spots are still in a state of nature—and this, paired with a growing ecotourism (生态旅游) offering, means Raja Ampat will no doubt remain king of the islands.1.What can visitors do in Xi’an?A.Shop in a fantastic seaside town.B.Appreciate diverse heritage.C.Enjoy mushroom-shaped small islands.D.Experience planting crops by themselves.2.Where is a surfer most likely to go?A.Yokohama.B.Raja Ampat.C.Kamakura.D. Sri Lanka’s Hill Country.3.Where is this text probably taken from?A.A fiction book.B.A private letter.C.A science report.D.A travel guidebook.2、Dear Miss Hanff,You will be glad to know that the two boxes of eggs and the tins of tongue have all arrived safely and once again we all wish to thank you most sincerely for your extreme generosity. Mr. Martin,one of the older members of our staff, haa been on the sick list for some time and we therefore let him have the lion’s share of the eggs, one whole boxful in fact, and of course he was delighted to get them. The tins of tongue look very inviting and will be a welcome addition to our larders (食物橱) and in my case will be put on one side for a special occasion.I enquired at all the local music shops but was unable to get the Messiah or Bach’s St. Matthew Passion in stiff covers in clean, secondhand copies, and thenI found they were available from the publisher in new editions. Their prices seemeda bit high, but I thought I had better get them and they have been sent by Book Post a few days ago, so should arrive any day now. Our invoice,total $4.20, is enclosed with the books.We are sending you a little gift for Christmas. We do hope you will not have to pay any duty on it. We will mark it “Christmas Gift” and keep our fingers crossed. Anyway,we hope you will like it and accept it with our sincere best wishes for Christmas and the coming year.My name is certainly not of Welsh origin. As it is pronounced to rhyme with the French word “Noel”,I think there may be a possibility that it originated in France.Yours sincerely,Frank Doel1.What can we infer from ihc text about Frank and his colleagues?A.They lived a busy life.B.They were treated badly.C.They were in poor health.D.They lacked living materials.2.What was Miss Hanff expected to receive?A.Tasty food.B.Some money.C.Copies of music.D.Secondhand books.3.Why was Frank going to mark the gift with the words “Christmas Gift”?A.To avoid tax.B.To make a wish.C.To show the content.D.To declare its value.4.Whom did Frank most probably write to?A.A friend.B.An assistant.C.A customer.D.A workmate.3、3D printing is becoming more and more popular. We are now able to create things we need very quickly and easily using 3D printers. But can you imagine printing food?Some scientists are trying to revolutionize the dining experience by doing this. They hope that having a 3D printer in the kitchen will be as common as the microwave oven or blender.Scientists say that it’ll be quite easy: you simply have to select a recipe and put the raw food ‘inks’ into the printer. You can also modify the instructions to make the food exactly how you want it. This means that it would be very quick and easy to create tasty and nutritious meals.Using 3D printers to create your meals would also be saving the environment. There would be less need for traditional growing, transporting and packaging processes as food production would be a lot more efficient. For example, alternative ingredients(原料) such as proteins from algae, beetroot leaves and insects could be converted into tasty products.Printing food could also help people who suffer from dysphasia (a swallowing disorder). They could program the printer to print softer versions of their favorite foods so that they would not have trouble in swallowing them.However, some people think that a future of 3D food printing would be a disaster. It could take away many jobs, including those fro growing, transporting and packaging food. Imagine a world where there was no need for farming or growing crops and the same tastes could be printed from a raw “food ink”. Likewise, traditional cafes and restaurants might lose business. Also, there are concerns about the nutritionalvalue of printed food: is it really possible to be get the nutrients we need from food –based inks and gels(凝胶)?What’s more , cooking and eating together with family and friends has long been a traditional and enjoyable activity. It is hard to imagine a world where the pleasure of cooking is dead and meals can be created at the touch of a button.1. Which of the following best describes 3D food printing?A. Quick and popular.B. Easy and efficient.C. Nutritious and tasty.D. Soft and convenient.2. Why do some think that 3D food printing would be a disaster?A. Traditional food would disappear.B. Many people could lose their jobs.C. It would affect the people’s health.D. We could all eat the same food.3. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. 3D food printing will replace traditional cooking.B. The future of 3D food printing is uncertain.C. It would hurt our tradition of food culture.D. 3D food printing would be a failure.4. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. 3D food “printing”: coming to the kitchenB. Can 3D printing create everything?C. 3D—printing food will be in fashion!D. The disadvantage of 3D food printing4、Have you ever spent an afternoon in the backyard, maybe grilling or enjoyinga basketball game, when suddenly you notice that everything goes quiet? There is an old phrase “calm before the storm”， often used in a situation—a quiet period just before a great activity or excitement. According to our own experience, we know there is actually calm before the storm. But what causes this calm? And is it always calm before the storm? Let's hear what scientists have to say.A period of calm happens in a particular kind of storm, the simplest kind of storm—a single－cell thunderstorm. In this type of thunderstorm, there is usually only one main updraft, which is warm, damp air and drawn from places near the ground.Storms need warm and damp air as fuel, so they typically draw that air in from surrounding environment. Storms can draw in the air that fit their need from all directions—even from the direction in which the storm is traveling.As the warm, damp air is pulled into a storm system, it leaves a low－pressure vacuum(真空) coming after. The rising air meets the cold dry air that has already existed in the storm clouds, thus the temperature of the warm, damp air drops, and the water vapour(水蒸汽) in it changes into tiny drops that are a precondition of rain. These drops accumulate and build on larger particles like dust, until they grow large enough to form raindrops.This warm, damp air keeps moving upwards, but it becomes cooler and drier during its trip through cloud. When it reaches the top of the cloud, the air gets spit out(被挤出) at the top. This air is sent rolling out over the big thunderclouds. From there, the air goes down. Warm and dry air is relatively stable, and once it covers a region, that air, in turn, causes the calm before a storm.Most thunderstorms, though, don't start with calm. That's because most are actually groups of storms with complex wind patterns. There's so much air moving up and down storm groups that the calm before the storm never happens. Instead, before the storm, it might be really windy!1. Which best fits the description of a particular kind of storm?A. A thunderstorm with a single shape.B. A thunderstorm without strong winds.C. A storm with air drawn from every direction.D. A storm fueled by moving air from the ground.2. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. Cold and dry air.B. Warm and dry air.C. Cold and damp air.D. Warm and damp air.3. Which does the writer most likely agree to?A. Presence of the calm relies on stable air.B. Not all thunderstorms start with the calm.C. The drier the air is, the bigger the storm will be.D. Storm happens without airmoving up and down.4. What is the passage mainly about?A. Causes and effects of a heavy storm.B. A brief description of a peaceful storm.C. A personal experience of a heavy storm.D. An explanation of the calm before a storm.5、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。

ATraditional Marriage CeremoniesBelgiumThe groom comes to the bride's house and gives her flowers. They go to the church and the man is inside when the bride's father brings her to her future husband. When they come out, the family throws rice on them. GermanySome days before the wedding, friends and relatives bring old porcelain (瓷器) and kitchenware to throw on the ground in front of the bride and groom. This is supposed to grant them a happy, lucky life; that's why this evening event is called Polterabend — the evening with lots of broken porcelain. The Polterabend often develops into an informal and casual party.El SalvadorWhen a wedding is celebrated, the wedding ceremony service starts without the bride. The groom and all the people who have been invited to the ceremony are waiting for her during the service. A group of seven men goes to the bride's home. The bride and her family are waiting for seven white cars which accompany the bride's car until they arrive at the church.JapanThe couple drinks Japanese rice wine in front of a priest (牧师). First, the bride drinks the wine from a small cup. Next, the bride passes the cup to the groom and he also drinks the wine from the cup. They drink three times. This means that they make a commitment to love each other forever.TurkeyWhen a girl gets married, all her female friends write their names inside her bridal shoes. After the wedding ceremony, if someone’s name has been rubbed off and can’t be read anymore, it means this person is going to get married next.1．Why do people throw porcelain before the wedding ceremony in Germany?A．To enjoy a casual party.B．To respect the guests present.C．To wish the couple good luck.D．To kick off the wedding party.2．In which country does the wedding ceremony start while the bride isn't there?A．belgium. B．Germany.C．El Salvador. D．Turkey.3．What ceremony implies the new Japanese couple's promise of a life-long love?A．Drinking wine three times.B．Throwing rice to their guests.C．Writing their names in the shoes.D．Going to the church first with a priest.BVictor Frankl，the author of Mans Search far Meaning，once wrote，"'Everything can be taken from a person but one thing：the last of human freedoms-to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances．" Frankl was right．Attitude is a choice．You could be faced with a thousand problems，many or most over which you have absolutely no control．However，there is always one thing you are in complete and absolute control of and that is your own attitude．To be honest，it wasn't until I was in my late 20s that I finally understood its full impact．All through my teens and into my early adult life，I can't tell you the number of times that I heard，"Bob，if you'd just change your attitude，you would do a lot better．" At that time，I didn't know what attitude was，let alone know how to change it!Attitude and results are inseparable，They follow one another as night follows day．One is the cause，while the other，the result．There is a term we use to distinguish this "cause and effect " relationship，which is called The Law of Cause and Effect．Simply stated，if you think in negative terms，you will get negative results；if you think in positive terms，you will achieve positive results．Some people always see wrong things in the world．These individuals are quick to blame circumstances or other people for their problems，rather than accepting responsibility for their life and their attitude．Thus，it would appear as if they were born with bad luck and it has followed them around their whole life．However，there are others who are forever winning and living the good life．They are the real movers and shakers who make things happen．They seem to go from one major accomplishment to another．They're in control of their life．Their wins are a matter of choice．You can experience that kind of life as well，you only need to decide．Dorothea Brand once said，"Act as if it were impossible to fail，" and I challenge you to do so．By simply becoming aware that you can choose your thoughts each and every day，you will change your entire outlook．You have the power to choose an abundant life no matter what your circumstances are．Don't wait to experience all the wonderful things the universe has in store for you．Start today by working on your attitude and welcome the abundant life that you are meant to lead．4．What can we know from Paragraph 1？______A．Freedom is the last thing we can control．B．Most problems in life are in our control．C．We can choose our attitude at any time．D．A man can lose anything but freedom．5．Why docs the author use the example of himself in Para．2？______A．To show attitude is important to the old．B．To show understanding attitude takes time．C．To prove attitude impacts greatly on people．D．To prove the author was very stubborn．6．Knowing "The Law of Cause and Effect" helps readers ______ ．A．understand what causes a good attitudeB．analyze the effect of a negative attitudeC．understand "cause and effect" relationship betterD．know the benefit of choosing active attitude7．What is the writer's message conveyed in this passage？______A．Winning is a matter of control．B．Success begins with positive attitude．C．Bad attitude results in bad results．D．Attitude and results are inseparable．CThe 2019 World Conference on VR Industry shows that Virtual Reality （VR）technology can be used to revolutionize people's experiences in practically any field．Held in Nanchang from Oct．19 to 22，the annual conference attracted more than 300 experts，leading scholars and company principals from over 30 countries．The theme of this year's World Conference on VR Industry was "VR+5G tor a new age of insight．" Conferences and exhibitions，which hosted more than 2，000 companies from across the world，were held during the event．As China introduces 5G this year，experts and industry insiders said that the VR industry will hug the new era．"We will take the lead in VR technology creativity．For example，the technology has already been applied successfully to this year's National Day parade．The popularity of the technology among younger generations of users guarantees a large potential market，said Guo Ping，representative of Huawei．In 2018，Oral Roberts University in the USA opened a new Global Learning Center，which has classrooms equipped with 360-degree cameras on the wail，which follows and records professors as they teach．Through an app on the smart phone，students can see images in 3D and manipulate （操纵）them．In May 2019，a VR theme park opened to the public in London．Covering about 13，000 square meters with 120 sets of advanced VR equipment，the park attracts thousands of visitors every day．During the 22nd Asian Music Festival，the musical Eight made its second appearance．Eight is a unique fusion of music，theater，VR technology and visual art，in which audience members wear VR headsets to walk through and manipulate an equipment．The show tells a poetic story of an old woman looking back on her life and it lasts for 15 minutes．8．What does this year's World Conference suggest？______A．VR technology can be used only with 5G．B．VR technology can change people's lives．C．China's 5G technology will take the lead．D．More VR theme parks will be opened to public．9．Why is Guo Ping confident about VR technology？______A．Because it attracts experts to cooperate．B．Because it has a large overseas market．C．Because young customers have interest in it．D．Because it has changed how to teach and learn．10．What does the underlined word " fusion'' in the last paragraph refer to？______A．research B．processC．combination D．type11．Which is the best title of the passage？______A．China Is Leading the Way in the WorldB．VR Technology Development in ChinaC．5G Technology：China Moves Ahead QuicklyD．The Bright Future of VR in Diverse FieldsDThe French Danone company is the latest to replace some plastic water bottles with aluminum (铝) cans. Competitors like Coca-Cola, PepsiCo and Nestle have also started selling water in aluminum cans.Replacing plastic water bottles that pollute the seas with recyclable aluminum cans should be an easy way to help the environment, right?Maybe not.Aluminum cans might result in less ocean waste, and the metal containers also are lighter than glass or plastic bottles, but they also come with their own cost to the environment. The production of an aluminum can is estimated to release two times as much carbon dioxide into the air as a plastic bottle.“That’s the dilemma you’re going to have to choose between,” said Ruben Griffioen, an official at beermaker Heineken. He said his company was Lrying to reduce the use of plastic bottles.Bruce Karas of Coca - Cola North America agreed. He s aid, “There’s a mix. There are some things that are not that desirable, but if you have five good things and one that isn’t, we’ll all have to make decisions.” He added, “It’ll never be that clean.”Bottled water is a 19 billion industry. Although its use of cans is increasing, experts say cans are unlikely to completely replace plastic bottles.Aluminum is costlier than plastic so canned drinks mean higher prices for buyers. Another major consideration is user convenience-cans stay open while bottles can be reclosed. More importantly, there is one barrier to ending the use of plastic water bottles: There may not be enough cans to go around. Beer and wine makers are now also increasingly using aluminum.12．What’s the advantage of aluminum cans?A．They are pollution-free. B．They are lighter.C．They are cost-effective. D．They are low-carbon.13．What is Karas’s attitude to replacing plastic bottles with aluminum cans?A．Supportive. B．Disapproving. C．Neutral D．Indifferent.14．What is the main idea of the last paragraph?A．The wide application of aluminum cans. B．The promising future aluminum cansC．The major advantages of aluminum cans. D．The unavoidable limitations of aluminum cans.15．What is the best title for the text?A．Aluminum Cans or Plastic Bottles? B．A Blessing or a Misfortune?C．How to Deal with Plastic Bottles? D．Why Do We Choose Aluminum Cans?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。

Board to receive out-of-district compensation to place their daughter in an out-of-district school due to racial bullying．I wasdisheartened because I know that even if this family wins their petition，the root of the problem will still continue．While there are many contributing factors to the rapid increase of the bullying，I believe that the root of this problem lies within the restrictions of schools，or rather the teachers and administrators who allow bullying to happen while feeding the line "We have ano-tolerance policy" to students and parents．This family can move their daughter to a new school where she will feel safe to learn and grow，but they will leave behind the problem of the educators at this school who let the racial bullying happen．My son went to a private school in Concord．He was bullied on the play yard．The administration gave us the "No tolerance" line，but did nothing to stop the bullying or change the climate of the school．We pulled our son out of this school and placed him in another school．This school truly understands how to guide students' acceptance of differences and embrace teachablemoments so that bullying is a non-issue．I truly hope that this family gets the out-of-district placement for theirdaughter．However，I am doubtful that the school district will address the root of the problem．The author felt disheartened probably because ______ ．A．the family' s petition was turned downB．the daughter of the family was bulliedC．the root of the problem won't be addressedD．the family will receive the compensation if they winAccording to

private school in Concord and studied with the girl．D．He attended a school which knew nothing about the "No tolerance" line．29.Supermarket shoppers who buy lots of foods on "two for one" deals are far more likely tobe obese（肥胖的），a major study suggests．Cancer Research UK found that those with highest consumption of discounted foods were at 50 percent greater risk of obesity，compared with those with low take-up of such deals．The study of more than 16，000 households found almost one in three food and drink items in UK supermarket baskets were bought on promotion．And the discounts were far morelikely to be applied to unhealthy foods，with almost half of all chocolate，crisps，popcorn，and savoury snacks bought on promotion．Shoppers whose baskets contained between 40 and 80 percent of goods on special offer were 54 percent more likely to be obese than those with a maximum 20 percent of foods on such deals．Those with highest take-up of the deals bought 30 percent less fruit，and nearly 25 percent fewer vegetables than those shunning the deals．The study follows a government consultation on proposals to ban "buy one，get one free"deals on unhealthy foods and supermarket "guilt lanes" as part of its childhood obesity strategy．One in five children are overweight or obese when they start primary school，rising to around one in three when they leave．Research has found that obesity increases the risk of 13 different types of cancer including bowel and breast disease．Alison Cox，director of cancer prevention at Cancer Research UK，said：" Thegovernment' s proposed 9 p．m．ban on junk food ads is a step forward in fighting childhood obesity．Now we want to see restrictions on price promotions for unhealthy food and drink items，as well as those strategically placed at checkouts．This

success．It was nominated for Best Picture at that year's Academy Awards，but so were nine other great films．It lost out to Gone with the Wind．The Wizard of Oz really gained an audience when it was broadcast regularly on TV．That began in the 1950s．The film' s plot follows young Dorothy who is knocked unconscious during a tornado．She dreams about following a Yellow Brick Road through the Land of Oz to the Emerald City．She wants to meet the Wizard of Oz who lives there．He's theonly one who can help her to return home to Kansas．Along the way she makes friends with the Scarecrow，the Tin Man and the Cowardly Lion．They help her and her dog Toto overcome the Wicked Witch of the West !According to the Library of Congress，The Wizard of Oz is the most watched movie of all time．What is it about the film that appeals to people？It includes themes that people can relate to．Through most of the movie Dorothy is trying to get home to Kansas．When she finally gets to go，she speaks the words，" there' s no place like home．" People identify with that thought．Home is the welcoming place where they feel secure．At the beginning of the film，Dorothy sings of a place " over the rainbow．" There，the dreams that you dare to dream really do come true．So while home is a great place，dreaming about something different is all right too．The Wizard of Oz also deals with courage．Dorothy learns that true courage isn't being unafraid．It' s facing danger when you are afraid．Her friends face plenty of danger to rescue her．As one of the true classics of American literature，The Wizard of Oz has stirred the imagination of young and old alike for over four generations．Celebrate the 80th year of this fabulous film by watching it again．According to the passage，what can we know about The Wizard of

AThe cold northern wind here in the streets of Petersburg strengthens my nerves and fills me with delight. I cannot think of the Pole as cold and empty; in my imagination it is a region of beauty and delight. Who knows what strange landscapes and creatures we may find there? I shall satisfy my curiosity with the sight of an unknown part of the world, and walk where no man has before. Thinking of it, I feel the same joy a child feels when he sails his little boat on a voyage of discovery up his native river.This voyage was the favorite dream of my early years. My education was neglected, yet I was passionately fond of reading. Uncle Thomas’s library contained only books about e xploration, which I read day and night. Finally, my thoughts come to the idea of making a voyage of discovery.Six years have passed since I decided on the present voyage. I can, even now, remember the hour when I committed myself to this great enterprise. I began by making my body used to hardship. I went on whale hunting voyages to the North Sea; I voluntarily endured cold, hunger, thirst, and lack of sleep. I often worked harder than the common sailors during the day. Then, at nights, I studied mathematics, the theory of medicine, and sciences of practical importance for a sea-going adventurer. Twice I took jobs as an officer on a Greenland whaling ship. I felt a little proud when my captain asked me to remain with the ship, sovaluable did he consider my services. And now, do I not deserve to achieve some great task? My life might have been passed in ease and comfort, but I preferred glory to every pleasure that wealth placed in my path.21. What does the author think of the Pole? A. It reminds him of his childhood. B. It must be a region full of surprises. C. It would fulfil his dream to be an adventurer. D. It’s too cold a destination with almost nothing. 22. To realize his childhood dream, the author got ________. A. physically prepared by experiencing great suffering B. spiritually prepared by gaining captain’s recognition C. academically prepared by reading books on explorationD. financially prepared by serving on a whale hunting ship23. According to the passage, the author is definitely a person full of ________. A. curiosityB. fancyC. perseveranceD. prideBAs a young child, Ann Makosinski would spend hours experimenting with her toys and other everydayobjects around her to create her own inventions.Now a first-year Arts student, Makosinski is a well-known inventor. She won the recent Sustainable Entrepreneurship Award of Excellence, which recognizes creative business solutions to social problems --the same recognition was given to Barack Obama in 2014. Her two inventions —the Hollow Flashlight and the e-Drink —have been causing excitement internationally since their creation.When Makosinski was 15 years old, she created a flashlight powered by the heat of one's hand. This invention was the result of a 9th grade science project, but her goal was to offer a practical solution to people with unlimited access to power and electricity. “One of my friends from the Philippines told me that she failed school because she had no light to study with at night, so that was kind of the inspiration.” Makosi nski explained.At 12th grade, Makosinski then went on to create the e-Drink. It is a coffee cup that harvests the extra heat of a hot drink while it cools, stores it as electricity in an internal(内置的) battery and makes it available to charge an external device such as a phone, whose life can now be longer by approximately 10 to 30 minutes.“My favorite part of creating inventions would be when you had the idea and you have to physically build it ，and it doesn't work out,” she said. “So you have to figure ou t different ways to solve it. A lot of times,此卷只装订不密封班级 姓名 准考证号 考场号 座位号I'll give up and I’ll come back after a couple of days and I'll take it up again.”Her advice to other student innovators? “Start now. There’s nothing holding you back. Actually, you can do whatever you want.” Makosinski said，“If you want to make something，follow your heart, then go ahead. If there's something you really want to do, you will make time for it and you will find time in the day to do your schoolwork.”24. Makosinsky created the powerless flashlight mainly to ________.A. satisfy her desire to create inventionsB. settle problems in study for her friendC. help those who are short of electricityD. finish the assignment of a science project25. Which of the following is mainly explained in paragraph 4?A. How the e-Drink was invented.B. Why the e-Drink was created.C. What the e-Drink brings.D. How the e-Drink works.26. Which can be the best title for this passage?A. Popular Inventions by a Teenager GirlB. Teenager Girl Advancing in CreationC. Valuable Advice from a Creative GirlD. Awards Given to a Young InventorCStress in middle age can make your brain shrink and make your memory worse, scientists have discovered. The brain-reducing effects of stress, identified in people in their 40s free from dementia(痴呆症)—a serious mental disorder caused by brain disease or injury, were found to be caused by cortisol(皮质醇). The high levels of the stress hormone may be an early warning sign that someone may end up with dementia, the research suggests.Stress also made people's thinking skills worse, which the Harvard Medical School study, published in the journal Neurology found. For the research, scientists led by Dr. Justin B. Echouffo-Tcheugui studied 2,231 people with an average of 49 and free of dementia. He said, "Our research detected memory loss and brain shrinkage in middle-aged people before symptoms started to show. So it's important for people to find ways to reduce stress, such as getting enough sleep, taking part in moderate exercise, making relaxation techniques part of their daily lives or asking their doctor about their cortisol levels and taking a cortisol-reducing medication if needed." He also added, "It's important for physicians to give professional advice to all people with high cortisol levels."Researchers found lower scores on tests of memory and thinking in people with higher levels of cortisol than those with average levels. In addition, people with higher cortisol levels had a smaller brain volume, with those with high cortisol levels having brains that were 88.5 percent of the total cranial(颅骨的) volume. This was compared to 88. 7 percent of the total cranial volume for people with normal levels of the hormone. No links were found between low levels of cortisol and brain size.Cortisol helps the body respond to stress and when we are stressed, cortisol levels increase because that is our fight-or-flight(战或逃) response. It can also help reduce inflammation(发炎) and control blood sugar and blood pressure. High cortisol levels can be caused by stress, medical conditions or medications.“Cortisol affects many different functions so it is important to fully investigate how high levels of the hormone may affect the brain,” Dr Echouffo-Tcheugui said, “While other studies have examined cortisol a nd memory, we believe our large, community-based study is the first to explore, in middle-aged people, cortisol levels and brain volume, as well as memory and thinking skills. ”27. What may Dr. Echouffo-Tcheugui suggest people do about stress-reducing?A. Early to bed and early to rise.B. Strengthen the social network.C. Eat food with more protein.D. Ride a bicycle around a lake.28. Which statement about cortisol may the author agree to?A. Higher cortisol levels are associated with larger brain volume.B. The more stressed one feels, the higher his cortisol levels are.C. Age and gender play a big role in the participants' brain volume.D. People with high cortisol levels will suffer from low blood pressure.29. What's the possible direction for future research according to Dr. Echouffo-Tcheugui?A. How high cortisol levels affect human brains.B. The link between cortisol levels and memory.C. The link between cortisol levels and brain size.D. How cortisol affects peoples’ response.30. Why does the author write this passage?A. To suggest the efficient ways to reduce stress.B. To prevent the features and functions of cortisol.C. To explain how cortisol affects peoples’ stress level.D. To show stress can cause memory loss and brain shrinkage.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。
