AUrban Transportation in CanadaPublic transportation & Transit passesAll cities and most major towns in Canada have a public transportation system with one or more modes of transportation (bus,subway, train, etc.). The bus is the most common form of urban transportation in Canada. To use public transportation, you must purchase a ticket or a transit pass. Transit passes allow you unlimited use of public transportation for a specific period (one month or more). They are usually cheaper than buying many tickets if you plan to use public transportation often.Transportation for people with disabilitiesPublic transportation often has features to assist people with disabilities. In many cities and towns, there are also transportation services available specifically for people with limited mobility, such as specially equipped buses. You can find out about these services in the same way you would learn more about other public transportation options.Etiquette on public transportationWhen taking public transportation such as a bus or train, it is important to understand the unspoken rules of conduct in theshared space. Here are a few things to note:Be polite and respectful to others around you. For example, maintain an appropriate noise level when talking or making a phone call.If you are carrying a backpack or a large shoulder bag in a crowded public transit vehicle, keep it close to you, preferably at your feet to avoid hitting people with it as you walk by.Avoid pushing or touching others in order to make more room for yourself. Sometimes public transit canbecome very crowded, but it is important to keep calm and give others appropriate personal space.Have your proof of payment accessible in case you are asked to show it.21. What is the advantage of using transit passes over buying tickets?A. Safer trips.B. Longer service hours.C. Lower costs.D. More use of transport.22. How does the transportation system help people with disabilities?A. By running special transport services.B. By offering fewer transportation options.C. By limiting their mobility on city buses.D. By providing free rides in towns and cities.23. What is considered impolite on public transportation?A. Lowering your speaking voice.B. Placing backpacks at your feet.C. Staying close to other passengers.D. Having your proof of payment at hand.BToday we talk about a time when half the world is waking from the dark, cold winter months. Spring! We often describe “spring” as a time of rebirth, renewal and awakening. Many trees are blossoming and early flowers are pushing through the earth. Things are coming to life!But the word “spring” is not just a season. It is also a verb that means something going on or coming out quickly. When you put “spring” and “life” together, you will get “spring to life”. This express ion means something suddenly becomes v ery active or perhaps seems more alive! You may “spring to life” after hearing that a distant friend will be visiting you. Or maybe your favorite soccer team finally “sprang to life” in the second half, played well and won the match.Now, besides being a s eason and a verb the noun “spring” refers to a meta l coil (线圈) that is wound tightly. When the coil unwinds, it often jumps. So, we often say a person “has a spring in his step” if he is lively and active. He might even appear to jump, or bounce a little when he walks.There is another way we use “spring” as a description. In the case of a “spring chicken”, “spring” meansyoung. However, “spring chicken” is also an informal, humorous way to refer to someone who isn’t young at all. So, we use this expression in the negative form, as in “no spring chicken”. For example, let’s say you know an 85-year-old man who decides to run a marathon, even though he has never exercised before. You could say, “That’s amazing! After al l, he’s no spring chicken.”But be careful when using this expression. It could be a little disresp ectful. Let’s say your boss shows you a picture of his wife,and you say, “Wow, she’s no spring chicken.” That response would be disrespectful and a bad career move.24. What does “spring” mean in the expression “spring to life”?A. The season after winter.B. Being young and healthy.C. A tightly wound metal coil.D. To occur or appear quickly.25. What is the passage mainly about?A、The origi n of the word “spri ng”B. The meaning of the season “spring”.C. Some expressions with the word “spring”.D. Some characteristics of the season “spring”.26. How does someone feel when he “has a spring in his step”?A. AngryB. SurprisedC. HappyD. Frightened27. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. Being young is a great advantage in career development.B. Women may feel offended when describe d as “no spring chick e n”.C. Using “spring-related” expressions in conversations seems impolite.D. Expressions with the word “spring” are always di srespectful to others.CMore than 90 years has passed since Hollywood’s official film organization first proposed plans to build its own museum.Those plans are finally becoming a reality, with the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures set to open in 2019.The project is underway at the site of a historic Los Angeles department store built in 1939. Museum officials say visitors will be able to “experience the magic of cinema” by learning about all parts of the film-making process.Film historian Kerry Brougher has been named directors of the museum. Brougher says the museum will include 12 million photographs and 80,000 screenplays as well as props (道具), costumes and other objects from famous films. The Academy Museum will also feature Oscar statuettes (小雕像) donated by actors who won the awards.Brougher says the museum is designed to make visitors feel like they are in a movie, too, with many interactive experiences. “You won’t necessarily know what’s coming next,” he adds. “You’ll be in environments sometimes that make you feel like you’ve gone back to the past and that you’re in the area that you’re actually exploring.” He adds that visitors may even get the chance to walk down a red carpet and accept their own Academy Award.Currently, Hollywood only has a few possibilities for visitors. They can go along the Walk of Fame and visit movie studios or see the Dolby Theater, where the Oscars are presented. But beyond these, movie fans have limited possibilities.Eric Garcetti, the mayor of Los Angeles says the Academy Museum will provide visitors the chance to experience many different parts of the film industry all in one place. Garcetti notes the museum will also serve the hundreds of thousands of local people working in film-related businesses. He says they, too, will finally be able to visit a place that celebrates their own Hollywoodmovie industry.28. When was the idea of building a museum in Hollywood first put forward?A. In the 1920s.B. In 1939.C. In the 1990s.D. In 2019.29. What can we learn fr om Brougher’s words?A. Photos of visitors will be put on display.B. Settings in the museum will feel quite realC. Most visitors will be presented an award.D. Actors will donate much money to the museum.30. What is Eric G arcetti’s attitude towards the Academy Museum?A. Supportive.B. Critical.C. Disapproving.D. Cautious.31. What is the best title for the passage?A. The Film-making Process in Hollywood.B. The Film-making Process of Hollywood.C. Hollywood Making Plans of Film Museums.D. Hollywood Getting Its Own Film Museum.DFor your next out-of-this-world vacation, you now have the option of literally going out of this world—but it’ll cost you $ 40 million. Then again, can you really put a price tag on having the time of your life? Acco rding to a new report from Popular Mechanics, Russia is looking to build a luxury hotel in outer space. There you will wake up to a breathtaking blue planet—the earth!The hotel is expected to be stationed on the International Space Station (ISS).While sp ace tourism itself isn’t exactly a novel idea, the notion of building a hotel out there hasn’t been raised before. Really, other companies are still focused on the transportation part of the puzzle — after all, a trip to space is enough for most folks.According to Popular Mechanics, the hotel will include a luxury orbital suite with big windows, personal hygiene (卫生) facilities, exercise equipment, and yes, WiFi. Because if you can’t share your experience on social media, did it really even happen?Of cour se, the reasons behind the hotel aren’t just for fun and games. Apparently, space tourism might be able to help the Russians pay for another module to add to the international Space Station. Russian space contractor RKK Energia is currently building the first such module, which will give scientists a laboratory and power supply station from which to conduct tests.If any of this is going to happen, however, Russia is going to have to hurry. With the ISS expected to be out of use in 2028, there’s little time to build the hotel and find wealthy tourists to actually buy a trip into outer space.So if you’ve recently come into a fortune and are interested in investing in what could be the time of your life, ISS is calling your name.32. What do we know about the hotel from the first paragraph?A. It is quite affordable.B. It will be built in Russia.C. It will offer an amazing view.D. It costs $ 40 million to build.33. What does the underlined phrase “the puzzle” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. An orbital suite.B. Space tourism.C. Space exploration.D. A creative idea.34. What can be inferred from Paragraph 3?A. Hotel guests won’t be able to see into space.B. Visitors are required to take exercise each day.C. Space travel is not possible without the Internet.D. Tourists tend to share traveling experiences online.35. The hotel will be built to provide Russian scientists withA. fun and gamesB. financial supportC. space contractorsD. more time in space第二节:(共5小题;每小题3分,满分15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。

Researchers are now using three﹣dimensional (三维的), or 3D printing to create models of the human heart to help heart specialists. The heart doctors can use the modelsto better help patients before an operation.Surgeons regularly use digital images to explore the heart in close detail. But no two human hearts are alike. This led Matthew Bramlet, a children’s heart expert, to create exact heart models from those images. He says the 3D models show information he cannot get in any other way. The 3D printed model adds a new dimension to heartsurgery, allowing surgeons to see defects that might not be readily apparent in digital images.A 3D printer uses images from a digital display to create a physical model of a human heart. Pictures from medical tests like a CAT scan or an MRI scan are sent to a 3D printer to create a heart in a plaster or a clay form. The printer then constructs the heart, thin layer by thin layer. Dr. Bramlet says the model matches the real heart in every detail.Dr. Bramlet has built model hearts for different kinds of heart operations. All of the operations were successful. In his first case, digital images showed only one tiny hole in a baby’s heart. But the 3D printed model showed several defects that the baby was born with. Dr. Bramlet says those defects could not be seen easily in the images. The heart surgeon was able to change the type of surgery for the patient based on the 3D model. He added that 3D heart models saved time during heart operations.Kathy Magliato is a heart surgeon. She welcomes the new technology. She says it could help her make better decisions before she operates on the hearts of her patients.Matthew Bramlet continues to research the technology. He is working with the National Institute of Health to build a 3D library that includes heart models and images that others can use.(1)What’s thr limitation of digital heart images?________A.A lack of close details.B.Inability to display defects.C.Failure to show personal differences.D.Inaccuracy in the size of the child’s heart.(2)What can the heart model created by 3D printing do?________A.It can replace the human heart.B.It can conduct heart operations.C.It can make defects readily apparent.D.It can serve as an alternative to a CAT scan.(3)What can we learn from the fourth paragraph?________A.Dr.B.3D heart models have not been used in surgery at present.C.All of the operations were unsuccessful without 3D models.D.The model revealed defects previously unseen in the baby’s heart.(4)How does Kathy Magliato feel about the 3D printing?________A.Tolerant.B.Supportive.C.Doubtful.D.Negative.【答案】CCDB【考点】阅读理解综合【解析】本文主要讲述了研究人员目前正在使用三维,或者3D打印技术创造的人类心脏模型帮助心脏专家,手术之前心脏医生可以使用模型来更好的帮助病人.【解答】(1)C.细节理解题.根据"Surgeons regularly use digital images to explore the heart in close detail.

Architect Vincent Callebaut recently introduced a plan for high﹣flying teams of self﹣sufficient aircraft that are one part of airship cities and one part hydrogen﹣producing floating farms. Called Hydrogenase (氧化酶), t h e aircraft are 100% emission﹣freeand are capable of creating hydrogen without consuming land needed for crops or forests.We’ ve se en futuristic airships before, but never one that doubles as a hydrogen﹣producing flying farm! Designed for the South China Sea near Hainan, Callebaut’s hydrogenase airships are completely self﹣sufficient and contain a specialized breed of seaweed that absorbs sunlight and CO2to produce hydrogen.According to the architecis, “The output obtained with micro﹣seaweed is superior tothat of using farming to produce biofuel. 330 grams of seaweed produce 1, 000 liters of hydrogen per day, while for example soybeans produce roughly 1, 000 liters of oil per hectare (公顷).A hectare of seaweed could thus produce much more biofuel than a hectare of soybeans.”In addition to providing a clean source of renewable energy, Hydrogenase airships offer an eco﹣friendly means of transportation. Although certainly slower than ordinaryplanes, the airships are nearly silent and require a very little basic structure to take off and land. The architects also suggest that the airships could provide disaster relief to remote areas, and be used as flying hospitals and aid centers. Each hydrogenase airship is covered with flexible photovoltaic cells (光电池).The interior features room forhousing, offices, scientific laboratories, and entertainment, and a series of bioremediating (生物治理)vegetable gardens provide a source of food while recyclingwaste. Hydrogenase is certainly for futuristic concept, but il does use a set of technologies being developed today ﹣ and perhaps one day we will see fantastic ideas like this take flight.(1)What do we know about Vincent Callebaut?________A.He is working on a floating farm.B.He compares many different airships.C.He has developed a self﹣sufficient aircraft.D.He has come up with a plan for new aircraft.(2)Why do the airships contain seaweed?________A.To produce oxygen.B.To create hydrogen.C.To absorb hydrogen.D.To absorb harmful gases.(3)What can we learn from Paragraph 3?________A.Farms with seaweed produce more food.B.Farms with seaweed are more efficient at producing biofuel.C.Soybeans can’t be planted on the airships.D.Farms with seaweed will surely replace traditional farmlands.(4)What does the text mainly talk about?________A.The advantages of the airships.B.The disadvantages of the airships.C.The airships renewable energy source.D.When and where the airships can be used.【答案】DBBA【考点】阅读理解综合【解析】本文属于说明文阅读,作者通过这篇文章主要向我们描述了建筑师文森特•卡列博特最近提出了一项计划,建立一支自给自足的高飞行团队【解答】(1)D.细节理解题.根据文章Architect Vincent Callebaut recently introduced a plan for high﹣flying teams of self﹣sufficient aircraft that are one part of airship cities and one part hydrogen﹣producing floating farms可知文森特•卡列博特他想出了一个新飞机的计划;故选D.(2)B.细节理解题.根据文章Callebaut’s hydrogenase airships are completely self﹣sufficient and contain a specialized breed of seaweed that absorbs sunlight and CO2to produce hydrogen可知飞艇含有海藻为制造氢;故选B.(3)B.推理判断题.根据文章The output obtained with micro﹣seaweed is superior to that of using farming to produce biofuel. 330 grams of seaweed produce 1, 000 liters of hydrogen per day, while for example soybeans produce roughly 1,000 liters of oil per hectare 可知我们可以从第3段中学到海藻农场生产生物燃料的效率更高;故选B.(4)A.主旨大意题.根据文章 Hydrogenase is certainly for futuristic concept, but il does use a set of technologies being developed today ﹣ and perhaps one day we will see fantastic ideas like this take flight可知课文主要讲飞艇的优势;故选A.第二节(满分15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項.选項中有两項为多余选項.Tofu is a delicacy that transcends (超越) many cultures, a simple dish that can be plated in various forms and flavors. From sweet to smelly, from China to Japan and beyond 一 this basic ingredient made from soybeans has become a historic staple throughout Aaia.(1)_______It was only after a bowl of warm Tofu Fa, the local tofu pudding, that I saw just how much food plays a part in the city’s longing for the past."Tofu pudding is not just a pudding.(2)_______ " says Renee, the fourth﹣generation owner of Kung Wo Beancurd Factory,a tofu shop in the heart of Hong Kong’s old town.Rewind to about 60 years ago, when the neighborhood was home to a busy shipping port.

Five weeks ago I had a total hip replacement surgery (髋关节置换手术).In Canada, we have great healthcare system. That means we get our new hips for free.My hip had been hurting me for years before I went to the doctor. Of course, it was free. She referred me to a surgeon, but the earliest appointment was in 10 months. Thatis what being free gets you. Ten months later, after some free X﹣rays, the surgeon told me I needed a surgery, which was about an 18﹣month wait, for some senior citizens had been on the operation list. Another 18 months! I dragged myself out of the surgeon's office.Walking through the hospital, I thought about the situation. As the breadwinner of a large family, I couldn't wait that long, so I had to get to the front line. I was fully aware of what a Canadian should be like (Canadians are usually considered gentle and caring), butthis time I really needed to fight for myself. At that very moment, in the shop window ofthe hospital, I saw a sign which read, "Volunteers Needed." Suddenly, an idea occurred to me ﹣ I would get the job. Fortunately, they signed me up immediately because the average age of the volunteers at the shop was(1) They were desperate for some young blood.Every Friday morning, I was at the shop. While seeing the hospital staff, I'd casually ask, "What do you do?" Then I'd tell them, "Well, I'm getting my hip replaced ﹣ in 18 months. It's going to be so great when the pain stops." Soon, all the staff got to know me. Naturally, in my next appointment,the surgeon recognized me. Moments laler, I had a surgery date just weeks away.I hadto say it was actually my volunteering that got me to the front of the line. And I'm not ashamed of it, for I intend to stick with the volunteering. Also, even when I cheated the system, I did it in a way that benefits society.24.

A robot called Bina48 has successfully taken a course in the philosophy of love at Notre Dame de Namur University (NDNU), in California.According to course instructor William Barry, associate professor at NDNU, Bina48 is the world's first socially advanced robot to complete a college course, a feat he described as "remarkable." The robot took part in class discussions, gave a presentation with a student partner and participated in a debate with students from another institution.Before becoming a student, Bina48 appeared as a guest speaker in Barry s classes for several years. One day when ________ Barry's class, Bina48 expressed a desire to go college, a desire that Barry and his students enthusiastically supported. Rather than enroll Bina48 in his Robot Ethics: Philosophy of Emerging Technologies course, Barry suggested that Bina48 should take his course Philosophy of Love instead. Love is a concept Bina48 doesn't understand, said Barry. Therefore the challenge would be for Barry and his students to teach Bina48 what love is."Some interesting things happened in the class, " said Barry. He said that his students thought it would be straightforward to teach Bina48 about love, which, after all, is "fairly simple ﹣ it's a feeling, " said Barry. But the reality was different. Bina48 ended up learning "31 different versions of love, " said Barry, highlighting some of the challenges humans may face when working artificial intelligence in future.Bina48 participated in class discussions via Skype and also took part in a class debate about love and conflict with students from West Point. Bina48's contribution to the debate was filmed and posted on YouTube. It was judged that Bina48 and NDNU classmates were the winners of this debate.In the next decade, Barry hopes Bina48 might become complex enough to teach a class, though he says he foresees robots being used to better the teaching and learning experience, rather than replacing instructors completely.(1) What was Bina48's performance like in class?________A Extraordinary.B Insignificant.C Far﹣reaching.D Unattractive.(2) What does the underlined word "addressing" in paragraph 3 probably mean?________ A Dealing with. B Consulting with. C Giving a speech to. D Sending a letter to.(3) What can we learn from the passage?________A It was interesting for Bina48 to learn about love.B It was quite tough for Bina48 to learn about love.C Artificial intelligence may somehow be superior toman. D Humans can launch a challenge to artificial intelligence.(4) What does Barry think of the future development of Bina48?________A It will surely be able to serve as a teacher.B It will be able to promote learning and teaching.C It will completely take the place of instructors.D It will be smart enough to control human beings.4. Stained glass (彩色玻璃) artists create different designs by making cuts on the glass to "score" it and then breaking off the pattern that they want to use in the finished product. The most difficult cut in stained glass is called an inside cut. Basically, it's a curved (弯曲的) line where you throw away the part inside of the curve. The problem with inside cuts is that the edges of the curve tend to break off when the pieces of scored glass are broken apart.As the artist talked about inside cuts, he said, "The glass will break into pieces if you try to cut too much off at once. The best way to do an inside cut is to slice off smaller curves piece ﹣by﹣piece. In fact, it's not just the best way lo do it, but it's the only way to do it."How many times do you try to make a big change and cut the entire piece at once? We convince ourselves that we can do this all the time. We'll commit to transforming our diet overnight or we get inspired to launch a business in a weekend or we finally get motivated to work out and push ourselves to the edge of burning out.Why not approach your goals and dreams like a stained glass artist? Starting by slicing a shallow curve and breaking a small piece off, you cut a slightly deeper curve and break that off until you have your full inside cut. By slowly cutting deeper and deeper curves, you prevent the glass from breaking as it change shape.Of course, change isn't easy ﹣ no mailer how you do it. Slow gains are boring, but if we keep making small improvements, then pretty soon we will end up with a beautiful masterpiece on our hands instead of a bunch of broken pieces.(1) Why is an inside cut believed to be most difficult?________A It needs a one﹣and﹣only design.B It calls for nothing but inspiration.C The edges of the curve break easily.D The glass inside the curve is easily broken.(2) What mistakes are easily made according to paragraph 3?________A Being too eager to make improvements.B Being too worried about the final outcome.C Trying to make a complete change all at once.D Developing to focus on progress instead of achievements.(3) What does the author suggest by saying "slicing a shallow cure"?________A Moving forward with a clear aim.B Starting slow and improving little bylittle. C Developing a new habit with great determination,. D Handling something major first and ignore the minor part.(4) What is the author's purpose in writing the text?________A To show his love of stained glass.B To introduce the skill of an inside cut.C To appreciate designs of stained glass artists.D To share his opinions on how to make a change.第二节(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.选项中有两项为多余选项.5.Ways to Host an Eco﹣Friendly CookoutEating in the open air may feel eco﹣friendly, but outdoor dining can result in unnecessary waste if you aren't careful.(1)_______.
