和诚学校2017-2018学年高二8月月考英语试卷第二部分阅读理解(共二节，满分60分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D)中，选出最佳选项.ATen years ago I used to be very fit. I rode a bike to work and I got a lot of exercise at weekends. I used to play tennis a lot and go for long walks。

In those days I didn’t earn very much。

I had a job in an office. It wasn't a very good job but I had a lot of time to do the things I enjoyed doing. Then, about eight years ago, I got a much better job. The pay was better, but the hours were a lot longer. I bought a car and drove to work every day. I began to take people out to lunch. And I began to put on weight，too. I stopped playing tennis and going for long walks at weekends because I just didn’t have any time for things like that any more。

There’s a lot of stress in my job. Perhaps that is why I started drinking more than I used to。

During the 14th century, he travelled about 75, 000 miles in search of knowledge and for the love of travel. To share the le arning and research so highly valued by Islamic (伊斯兰教的) culture, the ruler of Morocco, Abu Inan Faris, wanted Ibn Battuta’s worldwide travels recorded and published when he r eturned home to Morocco after almost 30 years. Ibn Juzayy, a Secretary, was appointed to write down Ibn Battuta’s experie nces. His travel journal, The Rihla, documents this extraordin ary achievement. It gives us a first-hand account of life in the 14th-century Muslim world. The original book, handwritten in Arabi c, can be viewed today at the National Library in .The early 14th century was a favorable age for a Muslim trave ller. It was nearing the end of the Golden Age of Islam, one of the great explosions of scientific and cultural achievements in world history. Caravans and sea lanes created transportation and communication networks that spread across continents, i ncluding Europe, Africa and Asia. Towns and cities were regul arly visited by merchants, traders, doctors, artists, craftsmen, scholars and pilgrims (朝圣者) carrying goods and ideas. All of these promoted the excha nge of goods and ideas on a scale not seen previously in worl d history. As an educated man with professional legal skills, Ib n Battuta enjoyed kindness, companionship and offers of emp loyment throughout the Islamic world.Journey to Mecca describes the 5, 000-mile journey Ibn Battuta made in 1325 and 1326 from his hom etown Tangier, Morocco, to reach Mecca, in what is now the of , to make the pilgrimage. During this dangerous and aweso me 18-month pilgrimage, he met many hindrances as he was attacke d by robbers, troubled by thirst, and forced to go back to his r oute due to war along the Red Sea. Joining the legendary Da mascus Caravan with thousands of pilgrims leaving for Mecca , he completed the final section of what would be his first of six journeys to .The goal of the film, Journey to Mecca, was to tell the remark able story of Ibn Battuta and to promote a better understanding of Islam in the West, said the producers.4. We can conclude that Abu Inan Faris probably thought Ibn Battuta’s travel experiences ________.A. preciousB. questionableC. mysteriousD. ridiculous5. What can we learn about Ibn Battuta from the text?A. He wrote the travel journal, The Rihla, by himself.B. He travelled all the way with the legendary Damascus Cara van during his first journey.C. He was a very successful businessman.D. He had to overcome varieties of difficulties while traveling.6. The underlined word “hindrances” in Paragraph 3 can best be replaced by “________”.A. tricksB. friendsC. barriersD. opportunities7. In which section of a newspaper can we possibly find this p assage?A. HistoryB. TravelC. EconomyD. EntertainmentCHow much weight a baby gains during its first month could determine its IQ, as a new research suggests. The study found t hat children who gain more weight, and whose heads grow qu ickly during the first month of life, tend to have a higher IQ wh en they start school.Researchers at the University of Adelaide, in ^ studied 13,800 children who were born at full-term. They found that those who put on 40% of their birth wei ght in the first four weeks had an IQ 1.5 points higher than tho se who only put on 15% of their birth weight. Those who expe rienced the biggest growth in head circumference (头围) also had the highest IQs by the age of six.“Head circumference is an indicator of brain volume, so a gre ater increase in head circumference in a newly-born baby suggests more rapid brain growth,” says the led aut hor of the study, Dr. Lisa Smithers.She added, “Overall, newly-born children who grew faster in the first four weeks had high er IQ scores later in life. Those children who gained the most weight scored especially high on verbal (言语) IQ at age 6. This may be because the neural (神经的) structures for verbal IQ develop earlier in life, which mean s the rapid weight gain during the first month could be having a direct cognitive benefit for the children.”Previous studies have shown the association between early p ostnatal (产后的) diet and IQ, but this is the first study of its kind to focus on the IQ benefits of rapid weight gain in the first month of life. Dr . Smithers says the study further highlights the need for succe ssful feeding of newly-born babies. “We know that many mothers have difficulty esta blishing breastfeeding in the first week of their babies’life,” Dr . Smithers said.“The findings of our study suggest that if babies are having fe eding problems, there needs to be early intervention (干预) in the management of that feeding.”8. The study mainly shows that ________.A. head circumference is certainly connected to IQ.B. babies’ heads grow quickly during the first month.C. full-term babies tend to be cleverer than premature babies. (早产儿)D. the more weight newly-born babies gain, the higher IQ they are likely to have.9. How did the researchers get their conclusion from the study ?A. By asking questions.B. By making comparison.C. By having a discussion.D. By referring to documents.10. According to Dr. Lisa Smithers, we can learn that _______ _.A. a kid’s verbal IQ scores reach its highest at age six.B. this study helps parents find feeding problems.C. quick weight gain benefits newly born babies on verbal IQ.D. this study reminds parents of the need for breastfeeding.二、完形填空（每题2分，共40分）When I was in my twenties, I travelled alone through the .

Each of her objects had its place, but mine always hid somewhere. She even labeled(贴标签)everything. I always looked for everything. Over time, Kate got neater and I got messier. She would push my dirty clothing over, and I would lay my books on her tidy desk. We both got tired of each other.War broke out one evening. Kate came into the room. Soon, I heard her screaming, “Take your shoes away! Why under my bed! ” Deafened, I saw my shoes flying at me.I jumped to my feet and started yelling. She yelled back louder.The room was filled with anger. We could not have stayed together for a single minute but for a phone call. Kate answered it. From her end of the conversation, I could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill. When she hung up, she quickly crawled (爬)under her covers, sobbing.Obviously, that was something she should not go through alone. All of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy rose up in my heart.Slowly, I collected the pencils, took back the books, made my bed, cleaned the socks and swept the floor, even on her side. I got so into my work that I even didn’t notice Kate had sat up. She was watching, her tears dried and her expression one of disbelief. Then, she reached out her hands to grasp mine. I looked up into her eyes. She smiled at me, “Thanks. ”Kate and I stayed roommates for the rest of the year. We didn’t al ways agree, but we learned the key to living together: giving in, cleaning up and holding on.1. What made Kate so angry one evening?A. She couldn’t find her books.B. She heard the author shouting loud.C. She got the news that her grandma was ill.D. She saw the authors shoes beneath her bed.2.

My Friend KateB. Hard Work Pays OffC. How to Be OrganizedD. Learning to Be RoommatesBThere have always been a lot of commonly believed but false ideas about being fat and doing exercise. Some people believe that they can’t help putting on weight as they get older, while others hold that if they stop exercising, their muscles will turn into fat. Here are some more myths:I’ll never lose weight--I come from a fat familyWrong! While we can't change the body type we are born with, we can't blame our genes for making us fat. There's plenty of evidence that fatness runs in families, and the main reason is that they share the same habit of eating too much and exercise too little.I am fat because I burn calories slowlyWrong! Fatness is not caused by a slow metabolism(新陈代谢).In fact, although fat people consume more energy than slim people, they also fail to realize how much they eat! Keeping a diary can help you work out your daily food intake mom accurately.Exercise is boringWrong! Anything will become boring if you do it repetitively. The key is to develop a balanced and varied program that's fun as well as progressive. If you enjoy a Sunday walk, take a different mute. If you do yoga, try a Tai chi class. If you like swiping, set yourself a distance or time challenge.No pain, no gainWrong! Exercise is not meant to hurt. Indeed, pain is you body telling you something's wrong, and continuing to exercise could lead to serious injury. You may experience mild discomfort as you begin to exercise regularly, but this is your body adapting to the positive changes in your lifestyle and the aches should disappear relatively quickly. If they don't, rest and seek medical advice.5. What does the author think about being fat?A. It is the family genes that make people fat.B. People are fat because they consume too little energy.C. A diary of exercise can prevent people from becoming fat.D. It is the consequence of people's unbalanced lifestyle.6. According to the author, how can we make exercise mom interesting?A. By taking varied exercise.B. By choosing simple exercise.C. By doing regular exercise.D. By sticking to outdoor exercise.7. What is the author's opinion about "No pain, no gain" in exercising?A. Keeping lit is essentially a painful experience.B. Exercise should be stopped if continuous pain is felt.C. Pain in exercise is a precondition for reaching your goal.D. Getting used to pain leads to positive changes in your body.CThe idea of being able to walk on water has long interested humans greatly. Sadly, biological facts prevent us ever accomplishing such a thing without artificial aid---we simply weigh too much, and all our mass pushes down through our relatively small feet, resulting in a lot of pressure that makes us sink.However, several types of animals can walk on water. One of the most interesting is the common basilisk Basilicus basilicus, a lizard (蜥蜴)native to Central and South America. It can run across water for a distance of several meters, avoiding getting wet by rapidly hitting the water’s surface wi th its feet. The lizard will take as many as 20 steps per second to keep moving forward. For humans to do this, we，d need huge feet that we could bring up to our ears in order to create adequate w hitting. ’’But fortunately there is an alternative : cornflour. By adding enough of this common thickening agent to water (and it does take a lot), you can create a“non-Newtonian” liquid that doesn’t behave like normal water. Now, if the surface of the water is hit hard enough, particles(粒子）in the water group together for a moment to make the surface hard. Move quickly enough and put enough force into each step, and you really can walk across the surface of an adequately thick Liquid of cornflour.Fun though all this may sound, it’s still rather messy and better read about in theory than carried out in practice. If you must do it, then keep the water wings handy in case you start to sink--and take a shower afterward!8. What do we know about Basilicus basilicus from the passage?A. It is light enough to walk on water.B. Its huge feet enable it to stay above water.C. It can run across water at a certain speed.D. Its unique skin keeps it from getting wet in water.9. What is the function of the cornflour according to the passage?A. To create a thick liquid.B. To turn the water into solid.C. To help the liquid behave normally.D. To enable the water to move rapidly.10. What is the author’s attitude toward the idea of humans’ walking on water?A. It is risky but beneficial.B. It is interesting and worth trying.C. It is crazy and cannot become a reality.D. It is impractical though theoretically possible.二、完形填空（每题2分，共40分）A gentle breeze blew through Jennifer’s hair. The golden red sun was___11___.

We have two different opinions.Some students thought it’s a good idea to keep pets because many old people who will live alone at home can get some comfort from them. Besides, get along well with animals will make our life interesting. However, other students are against the idea. In their opinions, if too many people keep pets at home, it’s harmful for the environment. What is worse, pets may make too many noise and even attack people.As for me, I’m in favor of the former. I don’t think it’s bad for us to keep pets at home.

Usually, there’s an assumption (假设)by many non-Brits that everyone in Br itain speaks with what’s known as the Received Pronunciation (RP)(标准发音)accent,also called “the Queen’s English” . However,while many people do talk this way, most Britons speak with their own regional accents.Scouse, Glaswegian and the Black Country dialect — from Liverpool, Glasgow and the West Midlands — are just three of the countless non-RP accents that British people speak with. There are even differences in accents between towns or cities just 30 kilometers apart. What is even more disappointing is that not speaking with the RP accent may mean a British person is judged and even treated differently in their everyday life.In a 2015 study by the University of South Wales, videos of people reading a passage with three different UK accents were shown to a second group of people. The group then rated how intelligent they thought the readers sounded. The lowest-rated accent was the Brummie dialect, native to people from Birmingham, a city whose accent is considered the working class.However,there is no need to be disappointed though you are not speaking with the RP accent. In fact, doing the opposite may even give you strengths.Kong Seong-jae, 25, is an Internet celebrity from Seoul. After studying in the UK, he picked up several regional accents. He’s now famous for his online videos, where he shows off the various accents he’s learned. “British people usually get really excited when I use some of their local dialect words, and they become much friendlier.I think it makes a bit of a bond (联系)between local people and foreigners to speak with their local accent,” he said.So if you’re working on perfecting your British accent,try to speak like someone from Liverpool, Glasgow or Birmingham. You may not sound like Harry Potter, but you are likely to make more friends.1.What can we learn from Paragraph 1?A.Only “the Queen’s English” is accepted in the UK.B.Many non-Brits usually hold that all Britons speak with the RP accent.C.Foreign visitors are disappointed at their own spoken English.D.Any standard English around the world is also called “the Queen English” .2.What do people think of the Brummie accent?A.Closest to the RP accent.B.Spoken by people of low social status.C.Easy to understand.D.Favored by foreign visitors to the UK.3.What does the underlined phrase , “doing the opposite” in Paragraph 4 refer to?A.Speaking with regional accents.B.Speaking with the RP accent.C.Speaking the Brummie dialect.D.Speaking like Harry Potter.4.What is the passage mainly about?A.How much British people value the RP accent.B.A comparison between different British accents.C.The impact of regional accents on people’s lives.D.A study about the most intelligent accent in Britain.二、完形填空。

山西省晋中市和诚高中2018-2019学年高二英语周练试题（5.11）时间：60分钟总分100分出题人：一、阅读理解（每题4分，共40分）AWe had a TV series in London.One of our fellow TV presenters seriously upset the camera crew when they arrived at his house.He was rude and unconcerned,treating them like lowly workers.Minutes later,when the camera was turned on,he became the perfectly smiling spiritual figure he was publicly known to be.But,as the crew told us later,he had already shown them that he didn't walk his talk.In contrast,Ed was meeting with Jo,our TV producer,in a small London cafe.If you have ever been to London you'll know that in such cafe the tables are very close.Two well dressed African men sat down next to them,which effectively meant they were sharing the same table.Ed asked the two strangers where they were from and one said, "South Africa." The man pulled out his business card—his name was Jacob Zuma who,at that time,was the President of the ANC but is now the President of South Africa.Usually,if you sit next to someone in a big city cafe,you don't even make eye contact,let alone conversation. Jacob had never met Ed before so he could have been distant and polite,he certainly didn't have to talk,let alone maintain communication,which he did over the following few years.He even hugged him!How we walk our talk shows far more than just our public behavior.Rather,it highlights how we view the world and our place in it.Jacob Zuma showed us how he treats others—with thefairness,consideration and respect that he treats all beings.No matter who we are,whether a street cleaner or a president,we are all equal,here together as one human family.1.What can we learn about the TV presenter?A.He felt upset before the camera.B.He was known for his being impolite.C.His deeds didn't agree with his words.D.He pretended to be polite to the camera crew.2.Which word can best describe Jacob Zuma according to the text?A.Friendly.B.Humorous.C.Generous.D.Serious.3.Why did Ed go to the small London cafe?A.To film a TV series.B.To interview Jacob Zuma.C.To meet with a TV producer.D.To observe people's public behavior.4.What is the text mainly about? presenters are often too proud.B.There still exists inequality in society.C.I.earned people are more likely to be polite.D.People should treat others with equal respect.BParents play an important role in determining the educational success of their children.Their expectations for how well their children do at school and the environment at home are important determinants of achievement.Family influence is great in helping a child to realize academic accomplishment.Children who live in homes in which the parents are academically successful,once they become parents,often feel that their job is to preparetheir children to do likewise in school.They take their kids on vacation,but they spend time learning about local history at museums.They also may ensure that their kids have time to study and understand the importance of school attendance.School is a priority for these families,and children who live in them grow up with a focus on learning.Parents who have high academic expectations and those who adopt a more authoritarian parenting style for their children often have children who do well in school.However,it can be dangerous to set expectations too high,such that a child feels overly pressured to perform.These types of expectations should be balanced with those that relate directly to the child,so that they will be able to personally set and reach goals,work hard and to enjoy being curious.Parents who support their children in their academic work also positively influence their performance.This takes different forms for families.Some parents might help with homework,or volunteer at school.Others provide a quiet study space,a consistent bedtime or a positive example of hard work and discipline.How parents show support for their child's academic career varies by family and by culture.No matter how it is shown,it is a vital part of a child's academic success to know their parents are behind their efforts.A love of reading in a household can also positively affect a child's academic attainment.Learning new vocabulary,and how to predict,understand and respond to a text are just some of the skills children can learn at home that are important in an academic environment.Reading books,newspapers,magazines and websites with children on a regular basis sets them up for success at school.5.According to the text,parents have an important effect onchildren's .A.family lifeB.next generationC.academic achievementD.expectations of their jobs6.What may a family with academically successful parents put first?A.Family travel.B.Attending school.C.Historic knowledge.D.Going to museums.7.How may academically successful parents influence their children's academic achievement?A.They can offer help to their children in different ways.B.They may ask teachers to their houses to teach.C.They put great pressure on their children.D.They ask their children to solve problems alone.CMike Miles hadn't had a stable job in years.He bounced around from one position to another,never sure when his last day would be.Sometimes,he lost a position with less than a day's notice.This wasn't due to a poor work ethic—from arriving early to staying late,Miles says he did everything he could to build a good relationship with employers.But because Miles had a criminal record,he was always cut loose when it came time to let staff go.It wasn't until October 2015,nearly a decade after his release from prison,that a cousin told Miles about Lancaster Food Company,a local business that focuses on hiring people released from prison.Hoping this would clear up what felt like a thick cloud of uncertainty over his future,Miles submitted an application.He got an interview, and he then began a new job.Miles' scenario is rare in Lancaster,where the poverty rate holds steady at 30%.This figure riled Charlie Crystle, Lancaster's co-founder and CEO.Crystle was raised in Lancaster but left in 1986 to purse a college degree and later,a career in technology.He co-founded four tech companies,one of which sold for millions of dollars back in 2000.Crystle is skeptical that many of Lancaster's low-income residents can get started the way he did.He believes food production is a key way to meet former offenders who may lack a college ncaster produces products like bread.Nowadays the company is rapidly expanding; however,at just 16 full-time employees,including administration and owners,it doesn't lower the city's poverty rate.Crystle says he wants to inspire other companies to rethink their current practices and start conversations around minimum wage and employment opportunities for everyone,including ex-offenders.Dan Jurman,who chairs the city's Commission to Combat Poverty,believes that Crystle's business is a great way to make this happen."None of us can handle these issues alone," he said.8.The purpose of the first paragraph is to show .A.a man's difficulty in living a stable lifeB.an increasingly competitive workplaceC.a decrease in employment opportunitiesD.the reason why Lancaster Food Company was founded9.What does the underlined word "riled" in Paragraph 3 most probably mean?A.Annoyed.B.Discouraged.C.Amused.D.Embarrassed.10.What words can best describe Charlie Crystle according to the text?A.Outgoing,kind and considerate.B.Wealthy but a little bit greedy.C.Humorous,diligent and ambitious.D.Successful and sociallyresponsible.二、完形填空（每题2分，共40分）We were depressed and things were tough.Mom had a_11_time raising

Each of her objects had its place, but mine alway s hid somewhere. She even labeled(贴标签)everything. I always looked for everything. Over time, Kate got neater and I got messier. She would push my dirty clothin g over, and I would lay my books on her tidy desk. We both g ot tired of each other.War broke out one evening. Kate came into the room. Soon, I heard her screaming, “Take your shoes away! Why under my bed! ” Deafened, I saw my shoes flying at me. I jumped to my feet and started yelling. She yelled back louder.The room was filled with anger. We could not have stayed tog ether for a single minute but for a phone call. Kate answered i t. From her end of the conversation, I could tell right away hergrandma was seriously ill. When she hung up, she quickly cra wled (爬)under her covers, sobbing.Obviously, that was something she should not go through alo ne. All of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy rose up in my heart.Slowly, I collected the pencils, took back the books, made my bed, cleaned the socks and swept the floor, even on her side.I got so into my work that I even didn’t notice Kate had sat up. She was watching, her tears dried and her expression one of disbelief. Then, she reached out her hands to grasp mine. I lo oked up into her eyes. She smiled at me, “Thanks.”Kate and I stayed roommates for the rest of the year. We didn ’t always agree, but we learned the key to living together: givi ng in, cleaning up and holding on.1. What made Kate so angry one evening?A. She couldn’t find her books.B. She heard the author shouting loud.C. She got the news that her grandma was ill.D. She saw the authors shoes beneath her bed.2. The author tidied up the room most probably because .A. she was scared by Kate’s angerB. she hated herself for being so messyC. she wanted to show her careD. she was asked by Kate to do so3. How is Paragraph 1 mainly developed?A. By analyzing causes.B. By showing differences.C. By describing a process.D. By following time order.4. What might be the best title for the story?A. My Friend KateB. Hard Work Pays OffC. How to Be OrganizedD. Learning to Be RoommatesBThere have always been a lot of commonly believed but false ideas about being fat and doing exercise. Some people believ e that they can’t help putting on weight as they get older, whil e others hold that if they stop exercising, their muscles will tur n into fat. Here are some more myths:I’ll never lose weight--I come from a fat familyWrong! While we can't change the body type we are born with , we can't blame our genes for making us fat. There's plenty o f evidence that fatness runs in families, and the main reason i s that they share the same habit of eating too much and exerc ise too little.I am fat because I burn calories slowlyWrong! Fatness is not caused by a slow metabolism(新陈代谢).In fact, although fat people consume more energy than sli m people, they also fail to realize how much they eat! Keeping a diary can help you work out your daily food intake mom acc urately.Exercise is boringWrong! Anything will become boring if you do it repetitively. T he key is to develop a balanced and varied program that's fun as well as progressive. If you enjoy a Sunday walk, take a diff erent mute. If you do yoga, try a Tai chi class. If you like swipi ng, set yourself a distance or time challenge.No pain, no gainWrong! Exercise is not meant to hurt. Indeed, pain is you bod y telling you something's wrong, and continuing to exercise co uld lead to serious injury. You may experience mild discomfort as you begin to exercise regularly, but this is your body adapt ing to the positive changes in your lifestyle and the aches sho uld disappear relatively quickly. If they don't, rest and seek me dical advice.5. What does the author think about being fat?A. It is the family genes that make people fat.B. People are fat because they consume too little energy.C. A diary of exercise can prevent people from becoming fat.D. It is the consequence of people's unbalanced lifestyle.6. According to the author, how can we make exercise mom i nteresting?A. By taking varied exercise.B. By choosing simple exercis e.C. By doing regular exercise.D. By sticking to outdoor exer cise.7. What is the author's opinion about "No pain, no gain" in exe rcising?A. Keeping lit is essentially a painful experience.B. Exercise should be stopped if continuous pain is felt.C. Pain in exercise is a precondition for reaching your goal.D. Getting used to pain leads to positive changes in your body .CThe idea of being able to walk on water has long interested h umans greatly. Sadly, biological facts prevent us ever accomp lishing such a thing without artificial aid---we simply weigh too much, and all our mass pushes down thr ough our relatively small feet, resulting in a lot of pressure tha t makes us sink.However, several types of animals can walk on water. One ofthe most interesting is the common basilisk Basilicus basilicus , a lizard (蜥蜴)native to Central and South America. It can run across wat er for a distance of several meters, avoiding getting wet by ra pidly hitting the water’s surface with its feet. The lizard will tak e as many as 20 steps per second to keep moving forward. F or humans to do this, we，d need huge feet that we could bring up to our ears in order to create adequate w hitting. ’’But fortunately there is an alternative : cornflour. By adding en ough of this common thickening agent to water (and it does ta ke a lot), you can create a “non-Newtonian” liquid that doesn’t behave like normal water. Now, if the surface of the water is hit hard enough, particles(粒子）in the water group together for a moment to make the surface hard. Move quickly enough and put enough force into each st ep, and you really can walk across the surface of an adequate ly thick Liquid of cornflour.Fun though all this may sound, it’s still rather messy and bette r read about in theory than carried out in practice. If you must do it, then keep the water wings handy in case you start to sin k--and take a shower afterward!8. What do we know about Basilicus basilicus from the passage?A. It is light enough to walk on water.B. Its huge feet enable it to stay above water.C. It can run across water at a certain speed.D. Its unique skin keeps it from getting wet in water.9. What is the function of the cornflour according to the passa ge?A. To create a thick liquid.B. To turn the water into sol id.C. To help the liquid behave normally.D. To enable the wat er to move rapidly.10. What is the author’s attitude toward the idea of humans’ w alking on water?A. It is risky but beneficial.B. It is interesting and worth tryi ng.C. It is crazy and cannot become a reality.D. It is impractical though theoretically possible.二、完形填空（每题2分，共40分）A gentle breeze blew through Jennifer’s hair. The golden red sun was___11___.

Sometimes I wondered, lying awa ke at night, how many hearts beat inside those walls. With all that lovely national park habitat protected for their use, why di d the animals need to live in my house?My latest essay “The indoor wilds at outdoor parks,” revisits m y experiences with wild (non-human!) roommates and officemates in . At first, they were c onsidered annoying but not dangerous. Attitudes changed dra matically when hantavirus (汉他病毒) came on the scene, and suddenly those cute, non-housebroken deer mice became a threat. When I moved on to Canyonlands National Park, I found that every effort had bee n made to seal off my house from four-footed intruders (入侵者). These efforts mostly worked and later employees moved i nto new housing. But somehow a rat still managed to chew its way through the floor and drown itself in my toilet.

It is to reduce noise pollution, su ch as airport-wide announcements, without sacrificing timely and helpful up dates of information.International airports were once characterized by their high vo ices, competing gate announcements and so on.This is all changing.Angela Gittens, director general of Airports Council Internatio nal (ACI), says there is a growing desire among airports and airlines they serve to “create a calm, relaxed atmosphere” with out being disturbed by announcements.“Passengers can relax while they wait for their flight to board i n the common airside lounges (休闲区), and food and drink areas,” she says.In June, Helsinki Airport in Finland — a country where the tou rism slogan is “Silence,Please”— became the most recent ai rport to adopt the silent concept.As part of its commitment to quieting things down, announce ments for flights are made only in boarding gate areas.Lost track of time in the shop?Too bad.Nobody’s going to call you to your flight, as announcements in all terminals will be made only in exceptional emergency circ umstances.Heikki Koski, vice president of Helsinki Airport, says that impr oved flight information display systems and interactive kiosks (交互式自助服务机), together with advances in mobile technology, are changin g the way airports communicate with passengers.At , InfoGate kiosks allow for video-based, face-to-face conversation with a live customer service representative in the traveler’s language of choice. Interactive signs, on the ot her hand, give directions at the touch of finger. Passengers ca n tap a “you are here” display to get directions and approxima te walking times to their destinations.Of course, an airport will never be as silent as a temple. There will continue to be a need for airport-wide emergency announcements, along with boarding calls. But at silent airports, the latter can be restricted to specific gat es, as has been adopted in .8. What is Angela Gittens, opinion on the silent airport concep t?A. It makes airport noise-free.B. It is intended for passengers’ benefit.C. It has changed international airports’ reputation.D. It has encouraged the catering industry in airports.9. What should passengers pay close attention to at ?A. Their boarding time.B. Finland’s tourism slogan.C. The shops’ opening hours.D. The “you are here” display.10. Why is mentioned in the next?A.

Sometimes I wondered, lying awake at night, how many hearts be at inside those walls. With all that lovely national park habitat protected for their use, why did the animals need to live in my house?My latest essay “The indoor wilds at outdoor parks,” revisits my experiences with wild (non-human!) roommates and officemates in . At first, they were considered annoying but not da ngerous. Attitudes changed dramatically when hantavirus (汉他病毒) came on the scene, and suddenly those cute, non-housebroken deer mice became a threat. When I moved on to Canyonlands National Park, I found that every effort had been made to seal off my house from four-footed intruders (入侵者). These efforts mostly worked and later employees moved into new housing. But someho w a rat still managed to chew its way through the floor and drown itself in my toilet.

It i s to reduce noise pollution, such as airport-wide announcements, without sacrificing timely and helpful updates of information. International airports were once characterized by their high voices, competing gate announce ments and so on.This is all changing.Angela Gittens, director general of Airports Council International (ACI), says there is a growin g desire among airports and airlines they serve to “create a calm, relaxed atmosphere” witho ut being disturbed by announcements.“Passengers can relax while they wait for their flight to board in the common airside lounges (休闲区), and food and drink areas,” she says.In June, Helsinki Airport in Finland — a country where the tourism slogan is “Silence,Please”— became the most recent airport to adopt the silent concept.As part of its commitment to quieting things down, announcements for flights are made only i n boarding gate areas.Lost track of time in the shop?Too bad.Nobody’s going to call you to your flight, as announcements in all terminals will be made only in exceptional emergency circumstances.Heikki Koski, vice president of Helsinki Airport, says that improved flight information display s ystems and interactive kiosks (交互式自助服务机), together with advances in mobile technology, are changing the way airports communicat e with passengers.At , InfoGate kiosks allow for video-based, face-to-face conversation with a live customer service representative in the traveler’s language of ch oice. Interactive signs, on the other hand, give directions at the touch of finger. Passengers c an tap a “you are here” display to get directions and approximate walking times to their destin ations.Of course, an airport will never be as silent as a temple.There will continue to be a need for airport-wide emergency announcements, along with boarding calls.But at silent airports, the latter can be restricted to specific gates, as has been adopted in .8.
