Mr．Cheverton is advised to visit Yangzhou in spring and summer．BThat morning，we noticed a cab following Sir Henry and Dr．Mortimer in London．But who？We went to Sir Henryˈs hotel．Holmes asked Dr．Mortimer if anyone with a black beard lived in or near Baskerville Hall．"Yes，" said Dr．Mortimer，"Barrymore．""We must send a telegram to check whether Barrymore is in London or at Baskerville Hall，" said Holmes．Sir Henry said he wanted to go to Baskerville Hall．"OK"，said Holmes．"But you mustnˈt go alone．Watson can go with you．"Sir Henry and I agreed to take the 10：30 train on Saturday．Holmes thought deeply on the way home：the story of the Hound，Sir Charlesˈs death，the strange letter，the missing boot and the black﹣bearded man．He sat in his room all afternoon，smoking and thinking．Just before dinner，a telegram arrived．It said，"Barrymore is at Baskerville Hall．""That becomes a dead end，Watson．We will have to look for another way to go forward．Just then the door bell rang．It was the cab driver who drove the man with the black beard．"I got a message that you are asking for me"，he said．"Iˈve never had a complaint．I came here to ask you what you had against me!

I was so afraid that he would be alone．But your father marked the grave every time he came．Each time I returned here，I saw that stone and it always comforted me．Your father is the kind of man who would ease the pain of a motherˈs heart though we are strangers．Just tell him you saw me today，wonˈt you？" She said．It took me a minute to find my voice．That small stone marked the grave of a child and the heart of his mother．38.The underlined phrase" some reason" in Paragraph 2 refers to（指代）____．A. the writer had been away from the cemetery for a long timeB. the womanˈs child died on that day fifteen years agoC. the writerˈs father was always the one to leave the stoneD. the writerˈs father would meet the woman that day39.What does the underlined word "ease"in Paragraph 5 mean____A.

A Strange CustomB. One Small Stone，UnforgottenC. A Cemetery KeeperD. Painful Memories，UnforgottenDTrees in cities "live fast but die young" compared to forests in the countryside，warns a new study．Researchers found that trees in cities die younger than ones in the countryside because of the higher levels of CO2．City﹣living trees suffer（遭受）a loss of carbon storage（碳储量）．That means trees produce less energy from the air．Now researchers say more must be done to deal with the situation．Ian Smith，a PhD student of Boston University in the United States，said，"Cities are in the important position in fighting against rising temperatures and increasing CO2．"．"We find that tree planting alone may not be enough to keep and increase city canopy cover（树冠覆盖率）．Because of the ageand size of the present canopy，efforts to improve and protect tree health are badly needed for increasing city tree cover and canopy cover．"The research team used a model to watch changes among street trees for several planting and management methods．Researchers also used the model to watch tree growth，death and planting rates（率）both among trees in Boston city and forests in the countryside in Massachusetts．It was discovered that rates of carbon cycling and growth rates among city trees were nearly four times faster than those in the countryside．However，loss of carbon storage and death rates are also higher，especially death rates are more than double higher than those in countryside forests．The study，published in PLOS ONE，has reminded scientists to encourage communities to do more to plant and protect trees．It is important to increase city canopy cover and carbon storage．Researchers say planting and protecting will be needed to make sure cities can develop healthily，but more needs to be done to have a better understanding of city trees ﹣﹣﹣which may be different from countryside forests．42.According to the passage，which of the following is TRUE？____A. The more carbon storage loses，the more energy the trees produce from the air．B. The higher the levels of CO2 are，the harder it will be for the plants to survive．C. If we plant enough trees，we are sure to increase city canopy cover．D. Cities do better in fighting against rising temperatures and increasing CO2．43.Paragraph 4 mainly tells us____．A. the results of the studyB. the discoveries from the researchersC. the methods of the studyD. the suggestions from the researchers44.What does" those" in Paragraph 5 refer to？____A. Death rates．B. Rates of carbon cycling．C. Growth rates．D. Loss of carbon storage．45.The writerˈs main purpose of writing the passage is____．A. to teach us how to improve and protect tree healthB. to warn us that trees in cities live fast but die youngC. to let us have a better understanding of city treesD. to tell us to take action to increase city canopy cover四、任务型阅读-完成表格（本大题共1小题，共10.0分）46.阅读下面短文，根据短文中的信息完成文后表格．Nowadays，many people in China and Japan are racing against time．They put a lot of value in "being on time"．However，in some countries of the world，people have different opinions on "being on time"．GermanyThanks to its industrial past，in Germany you are expected to arrive at least ten minutes earlier for any planned meeting．In Germany，being on time is risky enough because your hosts will probably already be there waiting，wondering how on earth you could be so stupid．What will you do if anything unexpected happens，like heavy traffic or a sudden rain？So remember to arrive early in Germany．Saudi ArabiaSome countries care little about time and Saudi Arabia is one of them．Itˈs because of their long history of desert living where time is not the first thing to think about．It could be that itˈs too hot to do anything on time．So donˈt expect them to be on time．Moreover，looking at your watch during an event is even considered as bad manners．So donˈt get angry with them，either．GhanaMost meeting times can be changed，even if an exact time is given，Ghanaians are very relaxed and easygoing．They think that if everyone is late，then no one is late．After all，what canˈt be done today can get done tomorrow．If you find it difficult to deal with，prepare to be unhappy．Otherwise，sit back enjoy the ride．RussiaPatience is considered a very important quality in Russian culture but being on time is not．When doing business in Russia，do be on time．Otherwise，it will be considered disrespectful．But Russians wonˈt hold themselves to the same standard．So，again，patience can be key．______________________________________________________________________五、首字母短文填空（本大题共1小题，共10.0分）47.根据短文内容和首字母提示，在下文空格处填入适当的词使短文完整We confirmed that Jim was locked in the hut．We spent two nights d __(1)__ a hole under the hut．We came up under Jimˈs bed．He was very surprised to see us．We p __(2)__ Jim to free him when we were ready．Then we climbed t __(3)__ the hole back to our bedroom and talked about a plan．Tom wanted to make an adventure．He wrote a letter to Uncle Silas telling him somebody was planning to steal Jim．I put the letter under the front door．We waited for the c __(4)_ to free Jim．The next night，some men were in Uncle S ilasˈs sitting room﹣﹣all with guns!We jumpedout of the bedroom window and climbed into the hut．"Come on，Jim!"Tomwhispered．"Huck，you go first．Then you，Jim．Iˈll go l__(5)__．"We heard somebody shouting，"The thieves have s __(6)__Jim!"

Holmes asked Dr. Mortimer if anyone with a black beard lived in or near Baskerville Hall.“Yes," said Dr.Mortimer,“Barrymore. "“We must send a telegram to check whether Barrymore is in London or at Baskerville Hall," said Holmes.Sir Henry said he wanted to go to Baskerville Hall.“OK”,said Holmes. “But you mustn't go alone. Watson can go with you. " Sir Henry and I agreed to take the 10:30 train on Saturday.Holmes thought deeply on the way home: the story of the Hound, Sir Charles's death, the strange letter, the missing boot and the black-bearded man. He sat in his room all afternoon, smoking and thinking.Just before dinner, a telegram arrived. It said,“Barrymore is at Baskerville Hall. "“That becomes a dead end, Watson. We will have to look for another way to go forward.Just then the door bell rang. It was the cab driver who drove the man with the black beard. “I got a message that you are asking for me", he said. “I've never had a complaint. I came here to ask you what you had against me! ”“No, no, ”said Holmes.“ Instead, I'll gi ve you money if you tell me about the man in your cab this morning. He watched this house at 10:00 and then told you to follow the two gentlemen. "The driver looked surprised and then answered,“The man said he was a detective and that I shouldn't tell any one about him. "“It's serious, my friend, and you may be in trouble if you refuse to answer.”“His name,” said the driver, “was Sherlock Holmes. "I'd never seen Holmes more surprised. Then he laughed. “He scored against me that time, Watson. "The drive r told us everything he knew. Holmes gave him the money and sent him away. “This is a dangerous enemy, Watson.”—Taken from The Hound of the Baskervilles34.

Before we left each time, he would lay some stones on some graves（坟墓）.I never asked why. I just thought that was his work.Yesterday, I visited my sick father. He asked me to go to the cemetery and lay some stones. For some reason, it had to be done that day. I agreed. I hadn't been there for a long time.When I got there, I found a woman in front of one of the graves I would lay a stone on.As I bent to lay it, I heard her whisper“ Thank you”. It was then that I noticed the date of death on the grave was that same day. The grave was that of a child, only five when he died fifteen years ago.“ He's my son,” she said. “But, where’s your father? He was always the one to leave the stone.”I told her that my father was ill but he asked me to do this. It seemed important to him. “Your father’s kindness means more to me than anything else. When my child died, I came often to see him. It is our custom to leave a stone. It tells the one who is here that he is thought of. But, then we moved away from here. so many painful memories (I)was so afraid that he would be alone. But your father marked the grave every time he came. Each time I returned here, I saw that stone and it always comforted me. Your father is the kind of man who would ease the pain of a mother’s heart though we are strangers. Just tell him you saw me today, won’t you?” She said.It took me a minute to find my voice. That small stone marked the grave of a child and the heart of his mother.38.

A. the writer understood his father in the end B. laying stones was part of a cemetery keepers work C. the woman knew the writers father well fifteen years ago D. the stone marked the grave of a child and the heart of his mother41. What's the best title of the passage?A. A Strange CustomB. One Small Stone, UnforgottenC. A Cemetery KeeperD. Painful Memories, UnforgottenDTrees in cities "live fast but die young" compared to forests in the countryside, warns a new study.Researchers found that trees in cities die younger than ones in the countryside because of the higher levels of CO2. City-living trees suffer(遭受) a loss of carbon storage(碳储量). That means trees produce less energy from the air.Now researchers say more must be done to deal with the situation. Ian Smith, a PhD student of Boston University in the United States, said, “Cities are in the important position in fighting against rising temperatures and increasing CO2.”. “We find that tree planting alone may not be enough to keep and increase city canopy cover(树冠覆盖率). Because of the age and size of the present canopy, efforts to improve and protect tree health are badly needed for increasing city tree cover and canopy cover.”The research team used a model to watch changes among street trees for several planting and management methods. Researchers also used the model to watch tree growth, death and planting rates(率)both among trees in Boston city and forests in the countryside in Massachusetts.It was discovered that rates of carbon cycling and growth rates among city trees were nearly four times faster than those in the countryside. However, loss of carbon storage and death rates are also higher, especially death rates are more than double higher than those in countryside forests.The study, published in PLOS ONE, has reminded scientists to encourage communities to do more to plant and protect trees. It is important to increase city canopy cover and carbon storage.Researchers say planting and protecting will be needed to make sure cities can develop healthily, but more needs to be done to have a better understanding of city trees ---which may be different from countryside forests.42. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?A. The more carbon storage loses, the more energy the trees produce from the air.B. The higher the levels of CO2 are, the harder it will be for the plants to survive.C. If we plant enough trees, we are sure to increase city canopy cover.D. Cities do better in fighting against rising temperatures and increasing CO2.43. Paragraph 4 mainly tells us ____________.A. the results of the studyB. the discoveries from the researchersC. the methods of the studyD. the suggestions from the researchers44.

The best time should be spring and summer. And, the weather may be somewhat cold during Dec which isn't good for cruise.QAsked by Eric Yeo from Singapore | May.15, 2018 02:53 Reply Can I know where I can eat the nicest Yangzhou Fried Rice along Dongguan Street area?AAnswered by Jennie from China | May.16, 2018 04:48Reply There are many restaurants along the street serving the fried rice and they are all OK.

Watson can go with you. " Sir Henry and I agreed to take the 10:30 train on Saturday.Holmes thought deeply on the way home: the story of the Hound, Sir Charles's death, the strange letter, the missing boot and the black-bearded man. He sat in his room all afternoon, smoking and thinking.Just before dinner, a telegram arrived. It said,“Barrymore is at Baskerville Hall. "“That becomes a dead end, Watson. We will have to look for another way to go forward.Just then the door bell rang. It was the cab driver who drove the man with the black beard. “I got a message that you are asking for me", he said. “I've never had a complaint. I came here to ask you what you had against me! ”“No, no, ”said Holmes.“ Instead, I'll gi ve you money if you tell me about the man in your cab this morning. He watched this house at 10:00 and then told you to follow the two gentlemen. "The driver looked surprised and then answered,“The man said he was a detective and that I shouldn't tell any one about him. "“It's serious, my friend, and you may be in trouble if you refuse to answer.”“His name,” said the driver, “was Sherlock Holmes. "I'd never seen Holmes more surprised.

Before we left each time, he would lay some stones on some graves（坟墓）.I never asked why. I just thought that was his work.Yesterday, I visited my sick father. He asked me to go to the cemetery and lay some stones. For some reason, it had to be done that day. I agreed. I hadn't been there for a long time.When I got there, I found a woman in front of one of the graves I would lay a stone on.As I bent to lay it, I heard her whisper“ Thank you”. It was then that I noticed the date of death on the grave was that same day. The grave was that of a child, only five when he died fifteen years ago.“ He's my son,” she said. “But, where’s your father? He was always the one to leave the stone.”I told her that my father was ill but he asked me to do this. It seemed important to him. “Your father’s kindness means more to me than anything else. When my child died, I came often to see him. It is our custom to leave a stone. It tells the one who is here that he is thought of. But, then we moved away from here. so many painful memories (I)was so afraid that he would be alone. But your father marked the grave every time he came. Each time I returned here, I saw that stone and it always comforted me. Your father is the kind of man who would ease the pain of a mother’s heart though we are strangers. Just tell him you saw me today, won’t you?” She said.It took me a minute to find my voice. That small stone marked the grave of a child and the heart of his mother.38.

A. the writer understood his father in the end B. laying stones was part of a cemetery keepers work C. the woman knew the writers father well fifteen years ago D. the stone marked the grave of a child and the heart of his mother41. What's the best title of the passage?A. A Strange CustomB. One Small Stone, UnforgottenC. A Cemetery KeeperD. Painful Memories, UnforgottenDTrees in cities "live fast but die young" compared to forests in the countryside, warns a new study.Researchers found that trees in cities die younger than ones in the countryside because of the higher levels of CO2. City-living trees suffer(遭受) a loss of carbon storage(碳储量). That means trees produce less energy from the air.Now researchers say more must be done to deal with the situation. Ian Smith, a PhD student of Boston University in the United States, said, “Cities are in the important position in fighting against rising temperatures and increasing CO2.”. “We find that tree planting alone may not be enough to keep and increase city canopy cover(树冠覆盖率). Because of the age and size of the present canopy, efforts to improve and protect tree health are badly needed for increasing city tree cover and canopy cover.”The research team used a model to watch changes among street trees for several planting and management methods. Researchers also used the model to watch tree growth, death and planting rates(率)both among trees in Boston city and forests in the countryside in Massachusetts.It was discovered that rates of carbon cycling and growth rates among city trees were nearly four times faster than those in the countryside. However, loss of carbon storage and death rates are also higher, especially death rates are more than double higher than those in countryside forests.The study, published in PLOS ONE, has reminded scientists to encourage communities to do more to plant and protect trees. It is important to increase city canopy cover and carbon storage.Researchers say planting and protecting will be needed to make sure cities can develop healthily, but more needs to be done to have a better understanding of city trees ---which may be different from countryside forests.42. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?A. The more carbon storage loses, the more energy the trees produce from the air.B. The higher the levels of CO2 are, the harder it will be for the plants to survive.C. If we plant enough trees, we are sure to increase city canopy cover.D. Cities do better in fighting against rising temperatures and increasing CO2.43. Paragraph 4 mainly tells us ____________.A. the results of the studyB. the discoveries from the researchersC. the methods of the studyD. the suggestions from the researchers44. What does“ those” in Paragraph 5 refer to?A. Death rates.B. Rates of carbon cycling.C. Growth rates.D. Loss of carbon storage.45. The writer’s main purpose of writing the passage is ____________.A. to teach us how to improve and protect tree healthB. to warn us that trees in cities live fast but die youngC. to let us have a better understanding of city treesD. to tell us to take action to increase city canopy cover四、词汇运用46.
