It just shows how badly she wanted off the swimming team.”“Wanted off the swimming team?” said Papa. “She never said anything about that to me.”“Of course she didn’t,” said Mama. “She was afraid you’d blow your top. You already had her getting a swimming scholarship to college and winning gold medals at the Olympics. Can you imagine how much pressure she must have felt? For her, being on the team couldn’t have been much fun.”“Oh, my gosh!” Papa said, clapping a hand to his forehead. “I’ve been so stupid! I just thought she’d want to be a champion swimmer because she’s so good at it.”“It’s like anything else, dear,” said Mama. “No matter how good at it you are, if it stops being fun, you won’t want to do it anymore.”Papa put his head in his hands.“She must be really mad at me,”he mumbled. “Maybe I should say sorry to her.”Sister’s footsteps could be heard on the stairs. She came into the kitchen and looked hopefully up at her parents.“Honey,” said Mama with a smile, “your papa and I have decided that there’s no reason for you to be on the swimming team if you don’t want to.”Sister’s face lit up like a Christmas tree. “Yippee!” she cried.“And,” added Papa, “there’s no need for any more drills. I’m sure you’ll bring your grades back up all by yourself.”Sister ran to Papa and jumped into his arms. She gave him a big hug. “I’m going to go play cards with Lizzy!” she said. “See you later!”From the kitchen window, Mama and Papa watched their daughter run down the sunny road toward Lizzy’s house.“It’s good to see her happy again,” said Mama.“It sure is,” Papa agreed. “As for the swimming team, there’s always next year.”“If?” Mama prompted him.“Oh, right,” said Papa. “If she wants to.”Mama smiled. “At least you’re learning, dear,” she said.

The sign said, “Yesterday the person who has been hindering (阻碍) your growth in this company passed away. We invite you to join the funeral in the room that has been prepared in the gym.”At first everyone was sad to hear that one of their colleagues had died, but after a while they started getting curious about who this person might be.The excitement grew as the employees arrived at the gym to pay their last respects. Everyone wondered, “Who is this person that was hindering my progress? Well, at least he’s no longer here.”One by one the employees got closer to the coffin (棺材) and when they looked inside it, they became speechless. They stood there, shocked and in silence, as if someone had touched the deepest part of their souls.There was a mirror inside the coffin. Everyone who looked inside it could see himself. Ther e was also a sign next to the mirror that said, “There is only one person who can set limits to your growth: it is YOU.”You are the only person who can change your life. You are the only person who can influence your happiness and your success. You are the only person who can help yourself.Your life does not change when your family changes, when your friends change, when your boss changes, and when your company changes.Your life changes when you change, when you go beyond your limiting beliefs, when you realize that you are the only one responsible for your life.28.

For centuries, people have been looking for a “fountain of youth.” The idea is that if you find a magical fountain, and drink its water, you will not age.Researchers in New York did not find an actual fountain of youth, but they may have found a way to turn back the aging process. It appears that the answer may be called the hypothalamus, which is part of your brain. It controls important body activities, including growth, the way we process food and so on.Researchers at New York’s Albert Einstein College of Medicine found that hypothalamus neural stem cells (干细胞) also influence how fast aging takes place.Dongsheng Cai, a professor at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, was the leading researcher in a study on aging in mice. He and his team reported their findings.“Aging speed can be controlled by a particular place in the body, which is the hypothalamus. And it can be controlled by a particular type of cells, which are hypothalamus stem cells.” He adds that when the hypothalamus starts aging, so does the body. So when hypothalamus function is in decline, particularly the loss of hypothalamus stem cells, and this protection against the aging development is lost, it eventually leads to aging.Using this information, the researchers began trying to activate the hypothalamus in laboratory mice. They did this by injecting the animals with stem cells.The researchers say the results show that the treatment slowed aging in the animals. “When we injected the hypothalamus stem cells to the middle-aged mice, the mice aged slowly and they can also live longer.”But these results were just from studying mice in a laboratory. If the mice can live longer, does that mean people could have longer lives? The next step is to see if the anti-aging effects also work in human beings.“If we can translate what we have seen in animals to humans, I think humans can function better during later ages.” Cai and his team say their studies may have other benefits. They say the findings could lead to new ways to help doctors identify and treat any number of age-related health issues.32. Why does the author mention the “fountain of youth” in the first paragraph?A. To explain what the “fountain of youth” is.B. To introduce the hypothalamus.C. To show how to find the “fountain of youth”.D. To help people find the “fountain of youth”.33. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragr aph 2 refer to?A. The brain.B. The aging process.C. Hypothalamus.D. Thestem cell34. What do we know about the study done by Cai?A. They have found a way to turn back the aging process.B. The brain controls growth, reproduction and the way we process food.C. The decrease of hypothalamus stem cells can lead to aging.D. The finding has been applied to human beings.35. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?A. The Fountain of YouthB. A New Discovery about AgingC. The Ways of Slowing Down AgingD. Hypothalamus—the Fountain of Youth第二节(共5小题,每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项。

It is said in a study that sleeping more at weekends can increase the risk of heart disease.

Researchers say that changing sleep patterns causes social jet lag. Is that even a thing?Changing our sleeping hours causes the effect of crossing a time zone—it makes us sleepy during the day. People who changed their sleep patterns were also more likely to gain weight during the study and more suited to going to bed and waking late because of the change of their biological clock. They were more at risk of these changes than earlier sleepers and risers. The study also shows an association between switching sleep patterns and changes in some blood results.

AChimps(黑猩猩) will cooperate in certain ways, like gathering in war parties to protect their territory. But beyond the minimum requirements as social beings, they have little instinct (本能) to help one another. Chimps in the wild seek food for themselves. Even chimp mothers regularly decline to share food with their children. Who are able from a young age to gather their own food.In the labora tory, chimps don’t naturally share food either. If a chimp is put in a cage where he can pull in one plate of food for himself or, with no great effort, a plate that also provides food for a neighbor to the next cage, he will pull at random ---he just does n’t care whether his neighbor gets fed or not. Chimps are truly selfish.Human children, on the other hand are extremely corporative. From the earliest ages, they decide to help others, to share information and to participate a achieving common goals. The psychologist Michael Tomasello has studied this cooperativeness in a series of expensive with very young children. He finds that if babies aged 18 months see an worried adult with hands full trying to open a door, almost all will immediately try to help.There are several reasons to believe that the urges to help, inform and share are not taught .but naturally possessed in young children. One is that these instincts appear at a very young age before most parents have started to train children to behave socially. Another is that the helping behaviors are not improved if the children are rewarded. A third reason is that social intelligence.Develops in children before their general cognitive(认知的)skills,at least when compared with chimps..In tests conducted by Tomtasell, the children did no b etter than the chimps on the physical world tests, but were considerably better at understanding the social worldThe cure of what children’s minds have and chimps’ don’t in what Tomasello calls what. Part of this ability is that they can infer what others know or are thinking. But that, even very young children want to be part of a shared purpose. They actively seek to be part of a “we”, a group that intends to work toward a shared goal.1. What can we learn from the experiment with chimps?A. Chimps seldom care about others’ interests.B. Chimps tend to provide food for their children.C. Chimps like to take in their neighbors’ food.D. Chimps naturally share food with each other.2. Michael Tomasello’s tests on young chil dren indicate that they____.A. have the instinct to help othersB. know how to offer help to adultsC. know the world better than chimpsD. trust adults with their hands full3. The passage is mainly about ____.A. the helping behaviors of young childrenB. ways to train children’s shared intentionalityC. cooperation as a distinctive human natureD. the development of intelligence in children【答案】1.A 2.A 3.CBWhy College Is Not HomeThe college years are supposed to be a time for important growth in autonomy(自主性) and the development of adult identity. However, now they are becoming an extended period of adolescence, during which many of today’s students are not shouldered with adult responsibilities.For previous generations, college was decisive break from parental control; guidance and support needed help from people of the same age and from within. In the past two decades, however, continued connection with and dependence on family, thanks to cellphones, email and social media, have increased significantly. Some parents go so far as to help with coursework. Instead of promoting the idea of college as a passage from the shelter of the family to autonomy and adult responsibility, universities have given in to the idea that they should provide the same environment as that of the home.To prepare for increased autonomy and responsibility, college needs to be a time of exploration and experimentation. This process involves “trying on ” new ways of thinking about oneself both intellectually(在思维方面) and personall y. While we should provide “safe spaces” within colleges, we must also make it safe to express opinions and challenge majority views. Intellectual growth and flexibility are fostered on debate and questioning.Learning to deal with the social world is equally important. Because a college community(群体) differs from the family, many students will struggle to find a sense of belonging. If students rely on administrators to regulate their social behavior and thinking pattern, they are not facing the challenge of finding an identity within a larger and complex community.Moreover, the tendency for universities to monitor and shape student behavior runs up against another characteristic of young adults: the response to being controlled by their elders. If acceptable social behavior is too strictly defined(规定) and controlled, the insensitive or aggressive behavior that administrators are seeking to minimize may actually be encouraged.It is not surprising that young people are likely to burst out, particularly when there are reasons to do so. Our generation once joined hands and stood firm at times of national emergency. What is lacking today is the conflict between adolescent’s desire for autonomy and their understanding of an unsafe world. Therefore, there is the desire for their dorms to be replacement homes and not places to experience intellectual growth.Every college discussion about community values, social climate and behavior should include recognition of the developmental importance of student autonomy and self-regulation, of the necessary tension between safety and self-discovery.4.What’s the author’s attitude toward continued parental guidance to college students?A. SympatheticB. DisapprovingC. SupportiveD. Neutral5.The underlined word “passage” in Paragraph 2 means.A. changeB. choiceC. textD. extension6.According to the author, what role should college play?A. to develop a shared identity among studentsB. to define and regulate students’ social behaviorC. to provide a safe world without tension for studentsD. t o foster students’ intellectual and personal development7.Which of the following shows the development of ideas in the passage?【答案】4. B 5. A 6. D 7. CCHollywood’s theory that machines with evil(邪恶) minds will drive armies of killer robots is just silly. The real problem relates to the possibility that artificial intelligence(AI) may become extremely good at achieving something other than what we really want. In 1960 a well-known mathematician Norbert Wiener, who founded the field of cybernetics(控制论), put it this way: “If we use, to achieve our purposes, a mechanical agency with whose operation we cannot effectively interfere(干预), we had better be quite sure that the purpose put into the machine is the purpose which we really desire.”A machine with a specific purpose has another quality, one that we usually associate with living things: a wish to preserve its own existence. For the machine, this quality is not in-born, nor is it something introduced by humans; it is a logical consequence of the simple fact that the machine cannot achieve its original purpose if it is dead. So if we send out a robot with the single instruction of fetching coffee, it will have a strong desire to secure success by disabling its own off switch or even killing anyone who might interfere with its task. If we are not careful, then, we could face a kind of global chess match against very determined, super intelligent machines whose objectives conflict with our own, with the real world as the chessboard.The possibility of entering into and losing such a match should concentrate the minds of computer scientists. Some researchers argue that we can seal the machines inside a kind of firewall, using them to answer difficult questions but never allowing them to affect the real world. Unfortunately, that plan seems unlikely to work: we have yet to invent a firewall that is secure against ordinary humans, let alone super intelligent machines.Solving the safety problem well enough to move forward in AI seems to be possible but not easy. There are probably decades in which to plan for the arrival of super intelligent machines.But the problem should not be dismissed out of hand, as it has been by some AI researchers. Some argue that humans and machines can coexist as long as they work in teams—yet that is not possible unless machines share the goals of humans. Others say we can just “switch them off” as if super intelligent machines are too stupid to think of that possibility. Still others think that super intelligent AI will never happen. On September 11, 1933, famous physicist Ernest Rutherford stated, with confidence, “Anyone who expects a source of power in the transformation of these atoms is talking moonshine.” However, on September 12, 1933, physicist Leo Szi lard invented the neutron-induced(中子诱导) nuclear chain reaction.8. Paragraph 1 mainly tells us that artificial intelligence may .A. run out of human controlB. satisfy human’s real desiresC. command armies of killer robotsD. work faster than a mathematician9.Machines with specific purposes are associated with living things partly because they might be able to .A. prevent themselves from being destroyedB achieve their original goals independentlyC. do anything successfully with given ordersD. beat humans in international chess matches10.According to some researchers, we can use firewalls to .A. help super intelligent machines work betterB. be secure against evil human beingsC. keep machines from being harmedD. avoid robots’ affect ing the world11.What does the author think of the safety problem of super intelligent machines?A. It will disappear with the development of AI.B. It will get worse with human interference.C. It will be solved but with difficulty.D. It will stay for a decade.【答案】8. A 9. A 10. D 11. CDA build-it-yourself solar still(蒸馏器)is one of the best ways to obtain drinking water in areas where the liquid is not readily available. Developed by two doctors in the U. S. Department of Agriculture, it’s an excellent wate r collector. Unfortunately, you must carry the necessary equipment with you, since it’s all but impossible to find natural substitutes. The only components required, though, are a 5' 5'sheet of clear or slightly milky plastic, six feet of plastic tube, and a container— perhaps just a drinking cup — to catch the water. These pieces can be folded into a neat little pack and fastened on your belt.To construct a working still, use a sharp stick or rock to dig a hole four feet across and three feet deep. Try to make the hole in a damp area to increase the water catcher’s productivity. Place your cup in the deepest part of the hole. Then lay the tube in place so that one end rests all the way in the cup and the rest of the line runs up — and out — the side of the hole.Next, cover the hole with the plastic sheet, securing the edges of the plastic with dirt and weighting the sheet’s center down with a rock. The plastic should now form a cone(圆锥体) with45-degree-angled sides. The low point of the sheet must be centered directly over, and no more than three inches above, the cup.The solar still works by creating a greenhouse under the plastic. Ground water evaporates (蒸发) and collects on the sheet until small drops of water form, run down the material and fall off into the cup. When the container is full, you can suck the refreshment out through the tube, and won’t have to break down the still every time you need a drink.12. What do we know about the solar still equipment from the first paragraph?A. It’s delicate.B. It’s expensive.C. It’s complex.D. It’s portable.13. What does the underlined phrase “the water catcher” in paragraph 2 refer to?A. The tube.B. The still.C. The hole.D. The cup.14. What’s the last step of constructing a working solar still?A. Dig a hole of a certain size.B. Put the cup in place.C. Weight the sheet’s center down.D. Cover the hole with the plastic sheet.15. When a solar still works, drops of water come into the cup form.A. the plastic tubeB. outside the holeC. the open airD. beneath the sheet 【答案】12.D 13. B 14. C 15.

In the United States, it is common for young people to complete four years of high school at age 17 or 18. After they finish high school in spring, those who decide to attend college usually do so two-to-three months later. In 2016, Malia Obama, daughter of then-president Barack Obama, received a lot of media attention when she made the same choice.Like Malia Obama, Rosalie Stoke also decided to put off the start of her studies by a year. Stoke was born in Baltimore, Maryland. She studies chemical engineering at the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, also known as Virginia Tech. After finishing high school, Rosalie connected with a family in Barcelona, Spain. They agreed to let her live with them and paid her a small amount to help care for their children for seven months. Rosalie studied Spanish during her free time in Barcelona. She then used money she earned from a part-time job she had in high school as well as money from her parents to travel for two months.She felt different when she returned to the United States to begin her studies at Virginia Tech. She said she felt at ease and that she knew more about herself as a person. Also, when talking with friends who went straight to college from high school, she found many had a difficult time in their first year of college. Some told her they questioned the field of study they had chosen. Others said they felt lost at the college or that they were wasting time doing things like partying.24. What is Rosalie’s attitude towards a gap year?A. Cautious.B. Disapproving.C. Supportive.D. Doubtful.25. Why did Malia Obama become the focus of the media in 2016?A. She didn’t finish high school.B. She also took a gap year after high school.C. She was the daughter of president.D. She cared for children for her part-time job.26. What is the main idea of the last paragraph?A. The benefit of a gap year.B. The various opinions on a gap year.C. The influence of a gap year.D. The disadvantage of a gap year.27. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Rosalie studied Spanish during her gap year.B. A gap year will have a harmful effect on young people’s study.C. More American young people choose to take a gap year before high school.D. A gap year will help young people get to better know their future and themselves.CThe national anthem(国歌) and the national flag are the most solemn symbols of a nation. In China, playing or singing the national anthem and raising the national flag are routines done on a daily basis at Tiananmen Square, and there are always people traveling long distances to watch the ceremony.This year's National Day also marked the first day for the national anthem law to take effect, in order to ensure appropriate use of the song “March of the Volunteers.” Inappropriately using the national anthem at private occasions, commercial events or as background music in public places will be taken as illegal. The lawbreakers, including those who deliberately change the lyrics, play or sing the national anthem in a distorted(歪曲的) or disrespectful way, can be detained(拘留)for up to 15 days or face further charge in more serious situations.The national anthem “March of the Volunteers” with lyrics by poet Tian Han and music composed by Nie Er, honors those who fought on the front during World War II against Japanese invaders in northeast China. The song will be included in textbooks for primary and secondary schools, and people are encouraged to sing the national anthem on appropriate occasions to express patriotism(爱国主义).Some Chinese internet users worry about whether they will break the law if they cannot sing the song well since they are tone-deaf.“This is a misunderstanding”, Yu Hai,a CPPCC National Committee member, said “The national anthem legislation urges that the song should be played solemnly on formal occasions to show respect to the Chinese nation. And on important occasions, attendees shall pay respect to the song. So whether one can sing the song well or not doesn't result in breaking the law.”28. Which of the following statements is true?A. It is illegal to play the national anthem on a commercial event.B. The song will be taught to those who are tone-deaf.C. The new national anthem law will take effect soon.D. The person who can’t sing the song well will be punished.29. What does the underlined word “solemnly”in the last paragraph refer to?A. urgentlyB. seriouslyC. continuallyD. regularly30. According to the new national anthem law, the lawbreaker will be _____.A. sentenced to half a year.B. fined a large amount of money.C. asked to sing the national anthem.D. under arrest for two weeks or so.31. What’s the purpose of the new national anthem law?A. To encourage more citizens to play the song.B. To show more respect to our nation.C. To help people memorize the World War II.D. To honor the musicians who created the song.DCommon knowledge says crossword puzzles and a few weird brain exercises are the No. 1 way to keep your brain young. But truth be told, the best brain sharpener may actually be where you live, science says.In a small pilot study of 25 people, Kansas University researchers used a mapping software called Space Syntax to classify “walkable” neighborhoods, or areas with many nearby places to visit and a complex layout. A Walkable Neighborhood is a place where people live within walking distance to most places they want to visit, whether it is school, a grocery store, a park, church, a bank, retail shops, a drug store, and so on. Their data showed that older adults who lived in more walkable neighborhoods scored higher on cognition(认知) tests.“This could be a relatively small contribution, but it could be important.” Watts, a researcher in Kansas University says. “We can’t change our age, we can’t change whether we have genetic alleles(遗传等位基因)that put us at risk, but we can change how we live.”According to Watts, constantly walking in a more complex neighborhood could improve cognitive function for older adults. Plus, with more places to walk to and visit, older adults have more opportunities to socialize and exercise outside of the house.However, for people with Alzheimer’s(阿兹海默氏症), a complex neighborhood layout could cause a risk; walkability might make it worse if the patients can get confused or lost easily.Although “walkable” neighborhoods keep older brains sharp, experts warn against concluding that living in a walkable neighborhood can prevent Alzheimer’s. A bigger follow-up study is in the works to determine why, exactly, walkable neighborhoods have so many brain benefits, Watts says.32. What do we know about “walkable neighborhoods”?A. Living in a walkable neighborhood can prevent Alzheimer’s.B. Walkable neighborhoods make older adults stay inside the house.C. People living there can walk to the grocery store conveniently.D. It is quite difficult for older adults to walk in a complex layout.33. Why is a walkable neighborhood beneficial to old adults?A. It can enable older adults to find their homes easily.B. It can make older adults live longer.C. It can make older adults gain good genetic alleles.D. It can help improve older adults’ cognitive level.34. What will probably happen to the people with Alzheimer’s if they live in walkable neighborhoods?A. They will keep their brains more active.B. They will lose themselves frequently.C. They will get better medical treatment.D. They will get on well with others.35. What is the best title for the text?A. A Way to Sharpen Your Brain.B. A Solution to Preventing Alzheimer’s.C. A New Mapping Software.D. A Complex Neighborhood Layout.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。
