Dozens of enterprises, institutions and restaurants have contacted the startup to cooperate on the project.Through the visualized mini-program, people can clearly see the good results of saving food, which will effectively reduce waste, he noted.

You act just like a grown-up.And you do know that if someone should really ring the doorbell when Mama is at work,everything will depend on you?And what will you say when they ask you about your parents?”“Mama's at work.”“And Papa?"He was silent.“And Papa?"the man screamed in terror.The child turned pale.“And Papa?”the man repeated more calmly.“He's dead,”＂the child answered and threw himself at his father,who was standing right beside him,but already long dead to the people who would really ring the bell.12.

I think they maybe aren’t real．”There’s a question in Cole’s voice, like he’s trying on this idea．We’ve been down the road of pretending versus reality before，what with all the talk of superheroes and such around our house．“I think you are fight．Ewoks are just in the movies．But it would be cool if they were real，fight?”Cole’s silent for a while，thinking．“I just saw an Ewok’s ear back there!”Cole’s spotted an additional Ewok arm and one full body of the tiny hairy creatures．It does indeed look like we are in the Ewok forest of Star Wars．Cole’s imagination is more than I can understand．What do plants eat? Which is the best planet? Which rocks float? He loves life．He loves his inner world and outer existence equally．I hear a lot of Worry from parents about media sucking the souls from our children，taking away their time for creative play．For us，this hasn’t been the case．Cole and his brother are quite knowledgeable in the realities of life when it comes to Angry Birds，Curious George，and the adventures of Indiana Jones．These characters，and others of their own invention，live in my home like visitors，joining us on walks and outings．I appreciate them，though not all the time，for the company they give my sons and their busy minds．I think of media characters as an add-on to already busy minds，by carefully monitoring who gets invited into our lives，they become part of the parenting team．They teach loyalty adventure，curiosity —lessons I'm trying to convey，but in a much cooler way than I can．Pretence is awesome．It provides practice for real life without the ordinary interfering．4．Where are the family heading for?A．The cinema．B．A park．C．San Francisco．D．A desert．5．What can we know about Cole from the passage?A．He is proud of himself．B．He is full of curiosity．C．He is courageous．D．He is considerate．6．What do many parents think of their children playing via media?A．It wastes children’s time．B．It can make their children relaxed．C．It can engage their children in learning actively．D．It can accompany their children in their absence．7．What’s the author’s attitude to the media characters in parenting children?

D．Its palaces are on the top of the rock．11．What is the best title of the passage?A．The giant lions in Sri Lanka B．The pearl of the Indian OceanC．The Lion Rock of Sri Lanka D．The mirror wall in a rockDNext time you find yourself tending to your flower garden，you may want to stay quiet. The flowers are listening．Israeli scientists discovered that the plants hear bees approaching and attempt to lure them in with sweeter nectar(花蜜)．In several experiments，they found that playing audio recordings of buzzing bees around certain flowers will cause the sugar concentration in the nectar to rise by about 20％in 1ess than five minutes．Such a rapid reaction by plants to sound had never previously been reported．Just to compare，the researchers also tried a higher frequency noise—like that made by a mosquito or a bat—and the flowers did not respond．The authors point out that the behavior is actually in line with the natural order of things，considering that a plant’s ability to sense its environment and respond to it is critical for its survival．So，it would seem that plants have some sort of consciousness．This is not the first time that plants have reacted to the sound around them．In a 2009 study, the researchers found that women’s voices help make plants grow faster．In that experiment，tomato plants were found to grow up to two inches taller when they were tended to by a female gardener．What if we told you that a potato chip bag left on the floor of a break room could listen in on office gossip? As people were talking around the potato chip bag，they were sending tiny sound vibrations(振动)into the air．Those vibrations then hit lifeless objects around the room. Now imagine if you had a camera that was zoomed in on one of those objects extremely closely．In theory，you could actually see the object move along with the vibrations．You could then feed that video into a computer program that could translate the vibrations and you can play back the audio of the conversation that just took place．So the next time you’re at the botanical garden or in a grocery aisle，careful what you say．Someone or something—might be listening．12．Which of the following best explains“lure”in Paragraph 2？A．Shut．B．Attract．C．Trap．D．Lead．13．What is vital for plants to survive?A．The soil depending on to grow in．B．The audio recordings played to them．C．The identification to the sound frequency．D．The power to sense and react to the environment．14．What can speed up the growth of plants?A．The women’s voice．B．The strength of the vibration．C．The species of the young plant．D．The number of the music played．15．What is the main idea of the text?A．Plants may have the ability to listen．B．Sound vibrations can be processed into an audio．C．Buzzing bees can increase the production of nectar．D．The frequency of vibration determines plants’growth．第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

We tried to slow it down with treatment, but it suddenly stopped beating completely. Later, whenever I would have a case like that one, I found myself second-guessing my clinical management. However, it turns out that thinking twice may actually cause more harm than good.In a working paper, Emory University researchers found that when doctors delivering a baby have a bad result, they are more likely to switch to a different delivery method with the next patient, often unnecessarily and sometimes with worse results.Because doctors make so many decisions that have serious consequences, thefalloutfrom second-guessing appears especially large for us. A 2006 study found that if a patient had a bleed after being prescribed (开药) warfarin, the physician was about 20% less likely to prescribe later patients the blood thinner that prevents strokes (中风). However, if a patient was not on warfarin and had a stroke physicians were still no more likely to prescribe warfarin to their other patients.These findings highlight interesting behavioral patterns in doctors. In the blood-thinner study, doctors were more affected by the act of doing harm (prescribing a blood thinner that ended up hurting doctors were more affected by the act of doing harm(prescribing a blood thinner that ended up hurting a patient) and less affected by letting harm happen (not prescribing a blood thinner and the patient having a stroke). Yet a stroke is often more permanent and damaging than a bleed.But this phenomenon is not unique to medicine. ''Overreaction to Fearsome Risks'' holds true for broadersociety.For instance, sensational headlines about shark attacks on humans in Florida in 2001 caused a panic and led the state to prohibit shark-feeding expeditions. Yet shark attacks had actually fallen that year and, according to the study, such a change was probably unnecessary given the extremely small risk of such an attack happening.Humans are likely to be influenced by emotional and often irrational (不理性的) thinking when processing information, bad events and mistakes. As much as we don't want to cause an unfortunate event to happen again, we need to be aware that a worst situation that can be imagined doesn't necessarily mean we did anything wrong. When we overthink, we fail to rely on thinking based on what we know or have experienced. Instead, we may involuntarily overanalyze and come to the wrong conclusion.I have treated dozens of patients who presented with the same illnesses as my first patient, who died more than a year ago. Instead of second-guessing myself, I trusted my clinical instinct (本能) and stayed the course. Every one of those patients survived. You should trust your instinct in your life, too.4. The first two paragraphs suggest that________.A. bad medical outcomes affect doctorsB delivering babies can be difficult workC. some doctors are not very experiencedD. doctors sometimes make silly mistakes5. In the blood-thinner study, doctors________.A. tend to prescribe less effective medicineB. are more concerned about the patients' safetyC. become less confident in writing a prescriptionD. believe a stroke is more treatable than a bleeding6. What does the underlined word ''fallout'' in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. ResultB. BenefitC. DifferenceD. Absence7. The author will probably agree that________.A. we should not doubt our own decisionsB. our experience will pave way for our futureC. humans are emotional and irrational on the wholeD. instincts don't necessarily lead to wrong directionsCPablo Picasso was born on October25 inMalaga. Spain in 1881. Taking after his father, Picasso shared apassion（热爱）for painting and art. Even though he wasn't the best student in school, Picasso excelled at drawing.

And I could only have left it one place: the G9 bus, from which I had gotten off minutes earlier and which was now speeding to some stops. The moment of realizing it was gone was followed by mental math. How much time and money would it cost to replace the credit cards, the driver's license, the expensive lipstick ($ 55!).Two hours after I was back at my house, I heard a knock on the door. My husband answered while I sat in the dining room on the phone with a credit card company. "Does Jennifer live here?" I heard someone say. In her hand was my wallet, without a penny missing. She left before I could offer my gratitude to her.After I posted the story, I heard from her boyfriend, who identified the good citizen as Erin Ball, a 26-year-old girl working for a trade organization.Once I figured out her, I called to thank her. She said she spotted my wallet and thought that it's more dangerous to go to a stranger's house than leaving the wallet with the driver, but she still decided to take the chance. "If I were in that situation, I would want someone to try to find me," she said. Ball doesn't find her actions particularly excellent. She added, "It's not hard to do small things for people."After Ball found my wallet, she decided to post a picture of my driver's license online before going to my house, trying to see if anyone knew me. No sooner had she left my doorstep than I got emails from two neighbors who recognized my face, both offering to help me find my missing property.Ball found my house on a bitterly cold night,for which I was extremely grateful. Looking back, I'm not surprised someone had wanted to help a stranger. A warm current of honesty and harmony is running through this town.12. What do we know about the author according to paragraph 1?A. She missed the G9 bus.B. She paid for her bananas.C. She replaced the credit cards.D. She found she had left her wallet on the bus.13. Who helped the author find Ball?A. The G9 driver.B. The girl's boyfriend.C. The author's neighbors.D. The author's husband.14. What did Ball do first after finding the wallet?A. Ball called the author.B. Ball went to the author's house.C. Ball gave the wallet to the bus driver.D. Ball posted a photo of the author's driving license.15. Which of the following best describes Erin Ball?A. Humorous and kind.B. Generous and demanding.C. Honest and warm-hearted.D. Caring and outgoing.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

Many families are abandoning cars and starting a sweatier morning ride with friends，biking in organizedgroups led by grown-up volunteers. The effort is a call to fight against climate change，encourage exercise and reduce school drop-off traffic. And both parents and kids say it just makes the children happier.Minneapolis dad devil Olson organized a bike bus for his local school zone. Olson says cyclingcreate connectivity between all walks of life.Six years ago，Olson partnered with Minneapolis Public Schools to run a 2- mile bike bus thatdropped off students at two elementary schools. So far，Olson has led 11 semi-annual bike buses thathave grown from about 60 participants to nearly 150. “We meet at 8 am. to play soccer and football,and eat do nuts,” said Olson. “Then we review safety measures and start our ride. It's nothing butlaughing，shouting and pure joy.”The group makes about eight stops along the way to pick up children, many of whom areaccompanied by parents. “We want kids to celebrate going to school,” explained Olson, adding thatthe kids who participate enjoy opportunities to communicate with students in different graded.In San Francisco，lake Bornheimer co-runs SF Bike Bus，which organized city-wide school routes，with the goal of inspiring people around the country to start bike buses. “Our first 3- mile rideincluded more than 100 kids, families, and adults in one trip to school,” said Bornheimer.

But the new strip uses a passive system to generate electricity from sweat in your fingertips, even if you are sleeping or sitting completely still. This is because the finger tips are the sweatiest part of the body. So, thanks to a smart sponge material, this can be collected and processed by conductors.The energy harvester produced small amounts of electricity when the wearer presses down or starts to sweat，or from light finger tapping. It does this by converting activities like typing，texting，or playing the piano into extra charge.Finger tips have one of the highest concentrations of sweat glands in the body，with coach finger producing between 100 and 1,000 times more sweat than most other areas, according to the researchers.Co-first author doctoral student Mr. Bin said: “The reason why we feel sweatier on other parts of the body is that those spots are not well ventilated（通风的）. By contrast, the finger tips are always exposed to air, so the sweat evaporated as it comes out. So rather than letting it evaporate，we use our device to collect this sweat, and it can generate a significant amount o f energy.”The device is equipped with electrical conductors or electrode（电极）made from a carbon foam, which absorbs any finger sweat. Enzyme（酶）on the electrode then cause a chemical sweat molecule to generate electricity.The device only stores up a little bit power at the moment, and would take about three weeks of constant wear to power a smart phone，but the researchers hope to increase capacity in future.12. How is the new device different from other wearables?A. It is cost-effective.B. It is harmless to skin.C. at required no exercise.D. It produced electricity.13. What does the underlined word “evaporate” in paragraph 5 mean?A. Changes into a gas.B. Freezes in the air.C. Drops to the ground.D. Becomes bigger in amount.14. What is the disadvantage of the device?A. It is extremely small in size.B. It is very difficult to operate.C. It has a very limited power capacity.D. It relies much on temperature changes.15. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A. Sweats FingertipsB. Power from FingertipsC. An Electrical ConductorD. A Rechargeable Device第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

The one-hour drive outside of San Francisco, covered in clouds along windy roads, has inspired my husband to say this sentence at least a dozen times.We finally arrive at Muir Woods National Park. I explain the strange green stuff on trunks of trees as we pass by--mos (苔藓), something my 5-year-old son Cole has never seen in the desert where we live."Mom, are Ewoks real? I think they maybe aren't real. " There's a question in Cole's voice,like he's trying on this idea.We've been down the road of pretending versus reality before, what with all the talk of superheroes and such around our house. "I think you are right. Ewoks are just in the movies. But it would be cool if they were real, right ?"Cole's silent for a while, thinking. "I just saw an Ewok’s ear back there!" Coles spotted an additional Ewok arm and one full body of the tiny hairy creatures. It does indeed look like we are in the Ewok forest of Star Wars.Cole's imagination is more than I can understand. What do plants eat? Which is the best planet? Which rocks float? He loves life. He loves his inner world and outer existence equally.I hear a lot of worry from parents about media sucking the souls from our children, taking away their time for creative play. For us, this hasn’t been the case. Cole and his brother are quite knowledgeable in the realities of life when it comes to Ang ry Birds, Curious George, and the adventures of Indiana Jones. These characters, and others of their own invention, live in my home like visitors, joining us on walks and outings. I appreciate them, though not all the time, for the company they give my sons and their busy minds.I think of media characters as an add-on to already busy minds, by carefully monitoring who gets invited into our lives, they become part of the parenting team. They teach loyalty adventure, curiosity--lessons I'm trying to convey, but in a much cooler way than I can.Pretence is awesome. It provides practice for real life without the ordinary interfering.19．Where are the family heading for?A．The cinema. B．A park. C．San Francisco.

B．Critical. C．Supportive. D．Disapproving.Deep in the middle of Sri Lanka, a massive column of rock reaches out from the green tropical forest. It is 660 feet tall and features frescoes (壁画), graffiti, and landscaped gardens.The rock is known as Sigiriya and holds a special place in the island's cultural history.It was established as the stronghold of a king over 1,500 years ago, and today the Sigiriya complex stands as one of the earliest preserved examples of ancient urban planning.Located in the Central Province, the column of rock is somewhat central to the country. The rock is known as Sihagiri, meaning "Lion Rock", a nod to the giant animal carved from stone which greeted visitors at the entrance.In 476 BC．King Dhatusena ruled over Sri Lanka. One of his illegal sons, Kashyapa, wanted the throne (王位). Kashyapa overthrew Dhatusena and drove his brother Moggallana to Southern India. Kashyapa crowned himself king in 477 BC．King Kashyapa chose Sigiriya as his palace because its position was an advantage to the defensive stronghold, offering fantastic 360-degree views. Plans to build a city quickly unfolded and after several years, the Sigiriya complex had become a business center for the new King.Sigiriya was both a palace and a fortress (堡垒); the overall complex featured five gates and measured just under 3 km by just over 1 km. The site plan consisted of a fort，an upper palace on the top of the rock,and lower palaces at ground level. The king also constructed gardens throughout，and for protection a river with walls surrounded the complex.Frescoes decorate the western side of the rock, along with the mirror wall, a brick face covered in a highly-polished white plaster. When new, the wall was said to be able to produce Reflections.Over time the Mirror Wall became a graffiti board, covered in verses written by visitors. Known as "Sigiri Graffiti", some of the messages date to the 8th century CE.23．It is implied in the passage that Sigiriya was built to ______________.A．preserve the culture of Sri Lanka B．prove the ancient urban planningC．keep the King from being attacked D．protect the green tropical forest24．According to the passage, some visitors would _________.A．have a reflection before the Mirror WallB．leave comments on the Mirror WallC．draw beautiful paintings of girls on the wallD．be lost in thought before the Mirror Wall25．What do we know about Sigiriya?A．Its entrance is carved like a lion. B．Its gardens are at ground level.C．Its western side is a mirror. D．Its palaces are on the top of the rock.26．What is the best title of the passage?A．The giant lions in Sri Lanka. B．The pearl of the Indian Ocean.C．The Lion Rock of Sri Lanka. D．The mirror wall in a rock.Next time you find yourself tending to your flower garden, you may want to stay quiet. The flowers are listening.Israeli scientists discovered that the plants hear bees approaching and attempt to lure them in with sweeter nectar (花蜜). In several experiments, they found that playing audio recordings of buzzing bees around certain flowers will cause the sugar concentration in the nectar to rise by about 20% in less than five minutes. Such a rapid reaction by plants to sound had never previously been reported. Just to compare, the researchers also tried a higher frequency noise-like that made by a mosquito or a bat-and the flowers did not respond.The authors point out that the behavior is actually in line with the natural ord er of things, considering that a plant’s ability to sense its environment and respond to it is critical for its survival. So, it would seem that plants have some sort of consciousness.This is not the first time that plants have reacted to the sound around them. In a 2009 study, the researchers found that women’s voices help make plants grow faster. In that experiment, tomato plants were found to grow up to two inches taller whe n they were tended to by a female gardener.What if we told you that a potato chip bag left on the floor of a break room could listen in on office gossip? As people were talking around the potato chip bag, they were sending tiny sound vibrations (振动) into the air. Those vibrations then hit lifeless objects around the room. Now imagine if you had a camera that was zoomed in on one of those objects extremely closely. In theory, you could actually see the object move along with the vibrations. You could then feed that video into a computer program that could translate the vibrations and you can play back the audio of the conversation that just took place.So the next time you're at the botanical garden or in a grocery aisle, careful what you say. Someone-or something-might be listening.27．Which of the following best explains "lure" in Paragraph 2?A．Shut B．Attract C．Trap D．Lead28．What is vital for plants to survive?A．The soil depending on to grow in.B．The audio recordings played to them.C．The identification to the sound frequency.D．The power to sense and react to the environment.29．What can speed up the growth of plants?A．The women's voice. B．The strength of the vibration.C．The species of the young plant. D．The number of the music played.30．What is the main idea of the text?A．Plants may have the ability to listen.B．Sound vibrations can be processed into an audio.C．Buzzing bees can increase the production of nectar.D．The frequency of vibration determines plants’ growth.三、七选五Spending your spare time alone or with your friends, which do you prefer? For me, I'd rather be alone. 31．Being with friends can be fun and can help you get through the rough spots in life. However, it's the time alone, I think, that forms you as a person.32．Of course, I can think about these thing s when I’m with others, but it's harder to concentrate in a crowd. Being alone gives me the quiet time to really think about my life and what I want to do with it.By staying alone, I can listen to the silence and relax completely. When I'm alone I can practice meditation (冥想) and lower my stress level. 33．Too much time with friends means filling my mind with a lot of chats. That’s enjoyable for a moment, but can dull my Concentration.If I’m with other people, it's easy sometimes to become too worried about what other peop le think of me. When I'm alone I have time to step back. 34．Finally, when I’m constantly in the company of other people, I’m always making compromises in order to find solutions that the entire group can enjoy. 35．It’s natural to want to be with other people, but I find the time I spend alone is more valuable to me in the long run. A．And that naturally leads to you feeling more independent.B．This will prevents me from doing things I actually enjoy.C．I need this time alone to re-energize my mind and spirit.D．That's a very good way to sharpen my powers of concentration.E.The time spent alone gives you a greater appreciation for yourself.F.When alone, I have time to think about my goals and to develop a strategy to reach them.G.Thus, I can see the real value of things, without being influenced by the opinions of others.四、用单词的适当形式完成短文阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
2020年日照市实验高级中学高三英语一模试卷及答案第一部分阅读（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项AExperts say that if food were a country, it would rank second behind theUSas one of the biggest greenhouse gas polluters. The reason is the rising demand for meat. Animal farming is responsible for 14.5 percent of global methane emissions. While cowsare the worst contributors, pigs, sheep, donkeys and other animals play a part as well.Animal agriculture also causes land to become damaged, water to be polluted and forests to get destroyed. With the world population forecast to rise to 9.8 billion by 2050, things are only looking worse for our already decreasing natural resources. While going vegetarian would help, meat consumption is too deep-rooted in most Western diets to allow for such a sharp, permanent change. That is why experts are advocating substituting some of the beef, chicken, or pork with ordinary insects!Insects, which grow into adults within a matter of months, if not weeks, are ready for consumption much faster than domestic animals. They also require much less room, use less water and food, and produce far less greenhouse gas than animals.Of the 1.1 million insect species worldwide, scientists have identified 1,700 as eatable. Among them are ants, grasshoppers, grubs, and earthworms. Just like animals, each insect has a different taste. Tree worms taste just like pork, and grubs are similar to smoked meat.While eating insects might be a new concept for Western people, over 2 billion people worldwide consume insects as a regular part of their diet. Besides being delicious, insects are high in protein, have very few calories, and are free of the saturated fat found in animal meat. Insects can be prepared in many ways. Creative cooks can use them to cook protein-rich soup, make baked treats, and even fry a few with vegetables. So eat insects--- both your body and Mother Earth will thank you for it!1. Which of the following animals contribute the most to global methane emissions?A. Sheep.B. Donkeys.C. Cows.D. Pigs.2. How is the third paragraph developed?A. By making comparisons.B. By providing examples.C. By listing data.D. By asking questions.3. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A.Few people eat insects regularly.B. Ordinary insects are high in fat.C. Insects contain various vitamins.D. Saturated fat is harmful to health.BI was at my parent’s dinner table. Before me was a worn journal of thin and discolor1 ed pages. It was my grandfather’s journal and now belonged to my father. My grandfather had passed away in the months leading up to my birth. I never got to visit the places he had frequented and the people who had been a part of his life’s journey.I was now about to enter his world, through the words he had left behind. Within minutes, I wascaptivatedby the power of the written words. In the magical script (笔迹) before me, I was transported to another age when food was an everyday art, planned, prepared and enjoyed in the company of others, and a time when people had the heart to pause their own lives to embrace (拥抱) each other’s struggles. All this was conveyed to me in the beauty of the words that flowed together to connect with the writer’s mind and understand the world they lived in.That kind of writing seems to be lost on us today. We have gotten used to writing in bite-sized pieces for a public looking for entertainment, and hungry for information. No wonder, there are nearly 200 million bloggers on the Internet and a new blog is created somewhere in the world every half a second. Instead of adding to our collective wisdom, most of these writings reflectthe superficiality (肤浅) and impatience of our day and age.This not only robs us of the skill of writing impressive essays, it also prevents us from exploring what is indeed important. Writing humbles (使谦卑) us in a way that is vital for our character growth, by reminding us about the limits of the self and our appropriate place in the vast flow of life. Writing frees us by helping us explore the unknown so that we really open up to magic of the world around us. I saw all of this in the writing of my grandfather. And I’ve seen it again and again in the writings of the greatest thinkers of humanity. Their writing reflect deep thought on issues of human importance.4. The underlined word “captivated” in the second paragraph can be replaced by “________”.A. puzzledB. frightenedC. attractedD. defeated5. In the author’s grandfather’s age, people ________.A. lived a hard lifeB. cared about each otherC. were fond of writingD. treated food as an art6. The author begins the text with her grandfather’s journal in order to ________.A. show her respect to her grandfatherB. present the importance of good writingC. express her interest in reading as well as writingD. raise the problems with today’s writing7. In the last paragraph, the author is trying to _________.A. discuss what good writing is likeB. express her strong desire to learn writing skillsC. stress the effects of her grandfather’s journal on herD. show her admiration for her grandfather’s writingC“Your mind is a garden; your thoughts are the seeds. The harvest can either be flowers or weeds,” William Wordsworth wrote. In the above quote, William suggests that the process of gardening mirrors human life. Depending on what we “plant” in our lives, we bloom (生长茂盛) or don’t. Before you start to work in your garden, it’s necessary to have a vision for it. Thinking of what youwant to grow in your garden and how to lay it out is a good first step in making your vision a fruitful reality. In life, you should consider what you want to create and what you want to achieve, because your mind-garden is like the white paper and the possibilities are endless. Regardless of what you choose to plant, poor soil isn’t suitable for growth. This is why gardeners take the time and energy to upgrade the soil before planting. So, creating the right soil is important to the realization of your goals and dreams. Fortunately, there are countless ways to make your personal bedrock better. Getting an education is one of the most effective ways, which can help you enrich your life’s soil.You don’t have to be an enthusiastic gardener to understand the meaning of “You reap(收获) what you sow.” When a gardener wants tomatoes, they just need to plant tomato seeds. It’s a very clear act that produces an expected result. Each of us has the power to decide which “life seeds” to plant. For example, if you plant ill seeds, it's likely that you’ll experience pain in return. Contrarily, if you plant seeds of kindness and understanding, your life will bloom with happiness and love.A gardener’s trulyarduouswork begins after the seeds are in the ground because a garden requires a lot of care and attention. Regular watering and weeding are required for a healthy garden. So, to ensure your dreams takeroot, you should be devoted, aware, and present. After countless hours and energy spent, the crops have grown well and are finally ready to be harvested.8. What is important before gardeners break ground in their gardens?A. Receiving some training in planting.B. Drawing up a good plan for their gardens.C. Having the courage to accept the worst outcome.D. Doing research on the common local garden plants.9. What is compared to getting education by the author?A. Improving the condition of the soil.B. Growing your most favorable plants.C. Taking care of the plants in your garden.D. Selecting proper goals in gardening work.10. What does the author want to express in Paragraph 3?A. Your quality of life depends on your positive action.B. Your experience can help you understand plants better.C. Your choice of soil is an important part in your gardening.D. Your knowledge of planting will make you a successful gardener.11. What does the underlined word “arduous” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A. BeneficialB. CreativeC. Boring.D. ToughDNot long after the first fitness magazine was published, a list probably followed soon after, ranking the best fitness equipment. This tradition has continued, with the implied message: usethisand exercise willbe yours.And that's part of the problem, says Dr. Lieberman, a professor of Harvard University. There isn't one “best” anything to achieve fitness. Besides, people understand exercise is good for them. Knowledge about exercise still doesn't motivate.Before you can answer why, it helps to look at history. Before the Industrial Revolution, people fetched water and walked up stairs because they had to. But then technology made life and work easier. Exercise has become something that people have to carve out time for. “It's a fundamental instinct to avoid physical activity when it's neither necessary nor rewarding,” he says.It would seem like being healthy would qualify as necessary, but a doctor's prescription to exercise “can make it like taking cod liver oil,” Lieberman says. “Sometimes it works, but more often than not, it doesn't. And it's still coming across as an order, and “not having a heart attack in five years is not an immediate reward,” says Dr. BethFrates, assistant professor at Harvard Medical School.People might not want to exercise because it's never been enjoyable. Most of us probably have memories of gym class, not being picked for a team, or being in a fitness center that's filled with in-shape people. The majority don't feel excited. They feel that exercise isn't for them, but it can be. Coaching people in an empowering and motivating way can work much better than ordering someone to exercise. It starts with an expanded definition of what counts as exercise, and an injection of what's rarely used to describe exercise, but is certainly allowed: namely, fun.12. What does the underlined “this” in paragraph 1 refer to?A. The magazine.B. The tradition.C. The equipment.D. The message.13. What can we infer about technology?A. It improves life quality.B. It saves people's time.C. It drives social progress.D. It makes exercise less likely.14. Why does the author mention “cod liver oil” in paragraph 4?A. To attach importance to health.B. To present a doctor's prescription.C. To explain exercise is considered inessential.D. To introduce the latest medical application.15. What is the main idea of the last paragraph?A. Exercise should be made more joyful.B. It's more fun to work out with others.C. We may encounter bad workout experiences.D. Orders work well to motivate people to exercise.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

In order to "reduce the carbon footprint," Stewart planned to produce enough solar energy to power the school's science labs. Now his plan is set to happen. The installation of 30 solar panels is scheduled for late January.As he began his research on solar energy, he discovered a useful phone app. By entering an address, he could find out how much sunlight the location receives each day. Based on how much sunlight it receives, Stewart found that his school building was the desired position.At the suggestion of his science teacher, Debbie Wheeler, Parker first performed an energy audit（测算）of the science lab to see how much energy a typical lab uses per day. Then, he started his research, contacting a local installer of solar panels, Synergy Home, to do the job.Parker lacked money for launching the project, so he convinced Sayre's head of school to fund him after explaining the benefits of solar power for the school and community. Since Sayre provided the initial seed money to provide supplies and the purchase of one panel, the project has grown to include a total of 30 panels. They are expected to generate enough energy to run all four of the science labs on campus."It feels like a dream to think that an idea I had resulted from my AP Environmental class would have this kind of impact," said Stewart, expressing gratitude for Wheeler's help.Wheeler said the success of the project was due to Parker's efforts and willingness to follow through on the project from start to finish.“I've had other students talk about environmental initiatives on campus, but Parker had the persistence to make it happen," she said.4．How did the app help Stewart start his project?A．To find an ideal location. B．To conduct an energy audit.C．To look up specific information. D．To introduce financial aids.5．Who invested in Stewart's project at the beginning?A．Sayre School. B．His parents.C．Synergy Home.

B．His bravery.C．His willpower. D．His independence.Rescue workers and thousands of volunteers are not the only ones who have won hearts and minds for their heroic efforts in the search for survivors after Tuesday's powerful earthquake inMexico. Fifteen dogs from the navy's canine（军犬）unit have assisted this week in the rescue efforts at the sites of collapsed buildings across Mexico City, where more than 50 people have been pulled alive from the ruins.Of the canine heroes none is more famous or loved than Frida, a six-year-old white Labrador who in her distinguished service has won praise for her ability to detect people who have been trapped by various natural disasters. Over her admirable career she has found 52 people including 12 survivors in Mexico and other Latin American countries.This week, Frida and Evil and Echo—two Belgian Shepherds that have also been specially trained for rescue efforts一were sent to the site of the collapsed Enrique Rebsamen School in southern Mexico City.Equipped with goggles that protect her eyes from dust and smoke, boots to prevent damage to her paws while she climbs over rough ruins, Frida took to her work looking every bit the part of the ruins.If Frida detects the presence of a survivor, she is trained to bark to alert rescue workers but if she detects a corpse she stops suddenly before proceeding, her handler explained.Eleven children were rescued from ruins at the school but this time human rescue workers rather than the dogs were the ones who located them.However, that hasn't stopped Frida from becoming a social media star and reaching a new level of fame this week. Videos and other social media posts that highlight the work of Frida and her impressive record of detecting people trapped by natural disasters spread quickly online.While she has yet to detect anyone trapped in the ruins this week, she and other rescue dogs are continuing to work tirelessly, searching through spaces that humans cannot reach. With the possibility that there are still people trapped alive, time will tell whether she adds to her rescue record.8．Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A．Severe earthquakes in Mexico B．Undertaking rescue work.C．People waiting for rescue D．Special rescuers in Mexico.9．What makes Frida a social media star?A．Her rescue records and tireless work.B．Her cooperation with the rescue team.C．Her cool appearance with some special devices.D．Her ability to search spaces beyond humans' reach.10．What does the underlined word "corpse" in paragraph 5 probably mean?A．An article of clothing. B．An unconscious animal.C．A dead person. D．A special signal.11．It can be inferred from the last paragraph that_______ .A．Frida will achieve nothingB．Frida will probably work miraclesC．more dogs will be sent to the areaD．the rest of the rescue will be done by dogsHybrid cars, also called hybrid electric vehicles （HEVs）, are cars that use more than one source of energy to run. They differ from the majority of cars on the road today in several ways. The main difference is that HEVs run on gasoline and electricity. An HEV car has abattery-powered motor as well as an engine that runs on gasoline.A hybrid car is a bit more expensive to produce than a regular car even though its engine is smaller. The reason for the greater expense is that the engine is more complex. It has specialized mechanisms that allow it to operate using gasoline and electric power. It also contains a computer that works differently from those of regular cars. Even though it is more expensive to purchase, it costs less to own than gas-powered cars. When an HEV car is at a stoplight or going at a speed below 15 miles per hour, its special computer tells it to run just on electric power. When the computer senses that the car needs more power, it puts the gasoline engine back to work. The computer is constantly deciding whether the car will use electricity, gas, or a combination of the two.Because the HEV has electric power to help it run, it uses much less fuel than most cars. In fact hybrid cars are the most fuel-efficient cars that exist today. They can get from 50 to 60 miles per gallon on average. The high mileage saves money for the car owner and conserves precious supplies of petroleum. Hybrid cars help the environment in other ways too. For example, whenthe HEV is using electric power, it does not send out poisonous smoke that pollute the air.Despite the differences between hybrid cars and regular cars, HEVs offer the same feel as regular cars. They handle the same way and speed up and stop in the same way too. HEVs, though, are generally smaller than gasoline-powered cars. Their rounded, aerodynamic frame helps add to their fuel efficiency but unfortunately does not add to the amount of space inside the vehicle.12．Which statement best explains the characteristics of an HEV?A．Safe and reliable. B．Expensive but long-lasting. C．Smaller engine, greater power. D．High price, low carbon.13．The transformation between the gasoline and electricity in an HEV is operated by________.A．the engine B．the batteryC．the computer D．the driver14．For what purpose was the HEV invented?A．To save energy. B．To provide better service.C．To lower the expense of purchase. D．To give the drivers a different feeling. 15．Where does the passage probably come from?A．A health report. B．A science magazine.C．A vehicle advertisement. D．A travel journal.二、完形填空Jake and Max Klein are twin brothers who have a passion for volunteering.

Today, employers are looking for even more一technical expertise paired with interpersonal and intrapersonal（内在）skills.31．You can learn the technical skills on the job or in school, but the soft skills are more challenging to get.32．That can make you the type of employee that companies want to hire and promote. Recent data in The Financial Times 2018 Skills Gap Study agrees that soft skills, like the ability to work well in a team, were rated as "most important" by 64 percent of respondents.During your business-school experience, you'll have the opportunity to build these skills as you work on group projects, interact with teachers, and participate in internships（实习）.When you reflect on your personal and professional lives, the people who have mastered skills like communication, listening, and cooperation are the people who stand out to you.33．But that doesn't mean that there aren't other skills on the top of many companies' wish lists.34．The first is "combine", which is the ability to combine and deal with information from multiple sources to solve complex problems. The second is "organize", or the ability to organize information to see relationships and to solve multiple, interrelated problems. 35．A．Market yourself as someone with soft skills.B．And they stand out to prospective employers too.C．So these skills in high demand have great value in the hiring market.D．What you may not realize is the lasting impact of developing skills like leadership. E．Soft skills like flexibility and teamwork are in high demand among employers.F．The skills you gain while earning your MBA help prepare you for various careers. G．The skills that employers have the most difficulty finding often have the most value in the marketplace.四、语法填空阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

Though not the main event，they are meant to be an open celebration for everyone and anyone to dress up，dance and listen to music into the early hours of the morning．But don’t think they’re small village gatherings，as even these lesser celebrations can attract thousands．There is a significant history behind Brazil’s carnival．Carnival was originally an Ancient Egyptian festival to welcome spring and was later adopted by the Romans．They gave it a religious meaning，using it as a final celebration before the fasting(斋戒)for Lent—a Christian belief．Today，the carnival period is used to celebrate the cultural heritage of Brazil and Other former European colonies．These include many Caribbean islands like Trinidad，as well as Quebec，Canada，certain Indian regions，and the US，where it is known as Mardi Gras．From small beginnings，the carnival has become an almost globalcelebration of culture and diversity．8．What do we know about Brazil’s carnival?A．It dates back to ancient Rome．B．It is celebrated for two weeks．C．It is a large and impressive festival．D．It attracts fewer p eople than China’s parades．9．What is the Sambadrome designed for?A．The grand parade．B．Sports events．C．The costume show．D．Samba schools．10．What’s the main purpose of Paragraph 5?A．To tell the historical story behind the carnival．B．To describ e what the carnival’s street parties are like．C．To point out how villages are different in celebrating the carnival．D．To explain why street parties became the main event for the carnival．11．Why is the carnival celebrated in Brazil now?A．To welcome the start of spring．B．To pass on Brazil’s cultural heritage．C．To strengthen Brazilians’religious belief．D．To unite with countries around the world．【答案】8. C 9. A 10. B 11. BDShirmin-yoku means“forest bathing”．Forest bathing doesn’t mean you take a bath in the forest；rather，you simply go for a walk in the woods or a city park，where you slacken by using all your senses to experience nature．Yoshifumi Miyazaki，from Chiba University，is among a growing number of scientists who have begun studying the science behind the effects of nature on human health．In his book Shinrin-yoku：The Japanese Art of Forest Bathing，Miyazaki explains the techniques of forest bathing．Miyazaki has an interesting theory about why shinrin—yoku is so effective．He points out that for more than 99.99％of the time，humans have lived in a natural environment．In fact，in 1800，only 3％of the world’s population lived in cities，and by 2016，this figure reached 54％．This is only going to get worse；officials predict that by 2050，66％will live in cities．This suggests we live in our modern society with bodies that are still used to the natural environment，he writes in the book，because“genes cannot change over just a few hundred years”．The science behind the research studies he presents in the book makes a convincing case that forest bathing is an effective method for reducing stress in today’s world．Now city planners are becoming increasingly aware of the importance of nature and are creating new kindsof“parks”out of empty spaces．There’re also mo re city gardens where people can grow vegetables．For kids，kitchen gardens in schools are becoming popular．As Miyazaki stresses，you don’t have to find a formal park or garden to practice shinrin—yoku．Instead，you can enjoy the effects of nature wherever ther e’re plants．Better yet，he says，we can bring nature closer to where we spend most of our time．Miyazaki’s research has shown that just increasing the amount of plants in a room can affect the relaxation benefits of the room．What’s more，even when people simply look at flowers，their bodies relax and stress levels decrease．12．What does the underlined word in Paragraph 1 mean?A．Behave．B．Entertain．C．Anticipate．D．Relax．13．How does the author mainly develop the third paragraph?A．By giving examples．B．By listing figures．C．By making remarks．D．By presenting research findings．14．Why does forest bathing work effectively according to Miyazaki?A．Human genes can change easily．B．Nature is part of the modern society．C．Human body can integrate into nature． D．People can always get excited in nature．15．Which of the following will Miyazaki agree on forest bathing?A．It is easy to operate．B．It is meant for gardeners．C．It is unaffordable in the city．D．It is inconvenient to practice．【答案】12.

He had seen people donate their hair to children who had lost theirs during medical treatment and wanted to do the same.“Kieran has always been known for his hair. It was a big part of his personality and who he was，”said his mother, Kelly Moise，“But he has always been the most compassionate and caring person. Since he was 6 years old，he somehow had the mindset of raising money and giving it to people who need it，and that never changed.”In May，Moise graduated from high school with an impressive 19-inch Afro(非洲发式）.But with him set to enter the U.S. Air Force Academy，it was finally time for the big cut.To maximize his impact，Moise organized a live event at a local brewery in Huntsville and an online fundraising campaign called “Kieran's Curls for Cancer”, where he aimed to raise $1,000 per inch cut.On May 29，nearly 100 people attended the event，where they watched Moise get his hair braided and snipped off. His hair was donated to Children With Hair Loss，a non-profit organization in Michigan that makes free wigs for kids and young adults facing medically related hair loss.By the end of the day，the event raised $20，000 for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and has continued to raise money online. As of Saturday，it was more than $39,000.“Charitable giving comes in many forms，from direct acts of kindness to impactful public statements that motivate others to come together to support a cause，“Richard C. Shadyac Jr., President and CEO for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital，told CAW，“Kieran's simple act of kindness exemplifies（例证）the power of younger generations and is something to celebrate，a selfless decision that will make a direct impact on the lives of the kids at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and children everywhere for years to come.”4.What contributed to Kieran Moise's starting growing out his hair?A. His high-quality fine hair.B. The death of one of his friends.C. His witness of children's pain.D. The encouragement from his mother.5.Why does Kieran Moise's mother mention his childhood?A. To introduce his kind deeds in the past.B. To prove his unique personality.C. To praise him for his contributions.D. To show that he is kind from an early age.6.What's mainly talked about in the last paragraph?A. Kieran's kindness benefited himself.B. Kieran's love will be richly rewarded.C. Kieran's deeds will inspire more kindness.D. Kieran's behavior showed a new form of charity.7.Which of the following can best describe Kieran Moise?A. Kind-hearted and creative.B. Kind-natured and tolerant.C. Good-natured and ambitious.D. Good-tempered and considerate.CModem life is full of things that can influence your ability to be sensitive and responsive to your child. These include extra work，lack of sleep，and things like mobile devices. Some experts are concerned about the effects that distracted（分心）parenting may have on emotional bonding and children's language development，social interaction，and safety.If parents are inconsistently available，kids can get distressed and feel hurt，rejected，or ignored. They may have more emotional outbursts and feel alone. They may even stop trying to compete for their parent's attention and start to lose emotional connections to their parents.“There are times when kids really do need your attention and want your recognition，”explains Crnic, a psychologist. “Parents need to communicate that their kids are valuable and important，and children need to know that parents care what they're doing，“he says.It can be tough to respond with sensitivity during tantrums，arguments，or other challenging times with your kids. “If parents respond by being bad-tempered or aggressive themselves，children can copy that behavior，and a negative cycle then continues to upgrade，”explains Dr. Carol Metzler, who studies parenting at the Oregon Research Institute.According to Crnic，kids start to regulate their own emotions and behavior around age three. Up until then，they depend more on you to help them regulate their emotions，whether to calm them or help get them excited.“They're watching you to see how you do it and listening to how you talk to them about it，”he explains.“Parents need to be good self-regulators. You're not only trying to regulate your own emotions in the moment，but helping your child learn to manage their emotions and behavior.”As kids become better at managing their feelings and behavior，it's important to help them develop coping skills，like active problem solving. Such skills can help them feel confident in handling what comes their way.“When parents engage positively with their children，teaching them the behaviors and skills that they need to cope with the world，children learn to follow rules and regulate their own feelings.”Metzler says.8.What may distract parenting according to the text?A. Working overtime.B. Too much sleep.C. Negative emotions.D. Social interactions.9.What is the second paragraph mainly about?A. Bad habits of ignored children.B. Bad effects of parents' absence.C. The outcome of parents' availability.D. The behavior of emotional children.10.What does the underlined word “tantrums” in paragraph 4 probably mean?A. Mental relaxation.B. Extreme anger.C. Heated discussions.D. Desperate hunger.11.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. Be strict with your childrenB. Regulate your emotionsC. Stay available to your childrenD. Set a good example for childrenDInsurance companies are starting to use smart box technology，so good drivers can benefit from cheap insurance rates.The smartbox，similar to a black box for airplanes，records details about how your car is driven，which can result in cheap car insurance for responsible drivers. The device is connected to the electronics in your car and collects a wide criterion of information such as time，speed，braking，cornering，acceleration and location. Ifs like having an insurance agent sitting beside you while driving.The smartbox data is wireless transferred in real time to the insurance company and provides a profile of when，where and how you drive. This profile is then used to compare insurance rates and to reward low-risk driving behavior with cheap insurance rates.Drivers are high-risk when they drive irresponsibly such as speeding，frequent lane changing，driving in high-risk locations or at high-risk times such as in heavy traffic or late at night.These new electronic inventions are intended to replace the standard practice of categorizing drivers into group behavior to determine insurance coverage and premium（保费）payments. For example, young drivers are more likely to drive fast，drive at night and use a cell phone while driving. Statistically，young drivers are more likely to cause an accident，so insurance companies charge them higher rates to cover the costs of accident claims. So even if you're a young，responsible driver，you will pay high insurance rates because of group behavior.This technology allows you to provide proof that your driving behavior doesn't fit the pattern of your demographic(统计)group.All the information collected about your driving can be viewed online—including what you're doing well and what could be improved. Your insurance premium is then calculated according to your driving profile.12.What will a good driver benefit from the smart box?A. Fewer traffic accidents.B. Better traffic order.C. Lower insurance payment.D. Less petrol used in driving.13.How does the insurance company monitor the driving?A. By checking the device in the car.B. By sitting beside the driver.C. By watching the traffic on the roads.D. By collecting the driving data online.14.What will the use of smartboxes bring about?A. Better service for cars.B. Lower prices of petrol.C. More convenient transport.D. More reasonable insurance charge.15.What can we infer about the smart box from the text?A. It requires better driving habits.B. It saves the drivers a lot of time.C. It helps the drivers use less energy.D. It takes the place of the traffic police.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

In order to "reduce the carbon footprint," Stewart planned to produce enough solar energy to power the school's science labs. Now his plan is set to happen. The installation of 30 solar panels is scheduled for late January.As he began his research on solar energy, he discovered a useful phone app. By entering an address, he could find out how much sunlight the location receives each day. Based on how much sunlight it receives, Stewart found that his school building was the desired position.At the suggestion of his science teacher, Debbie Wheeler, Parker first performed an energy audit（测算）of the science lab to see how much energy a typical lab uses per day. Then, he started his research, contacting a localinstaller of solar panels, Synergy Home, to do the job.Parker lacked money for launching the project, so he convinced Sayre's head of school to fund him after explaining the benefits of solar power for the school and community. Since Sayre provided the initial seed money to provide supplies and the purchase of one panel, the project has grown to include a total of 30 panels. They are expected to generate enough energy to run all four of the science labs on campus."It feels like a dream to think that an idea I had resulted from my AP Environmental class would have this kind of impact," said Stewart, expressing gratitude for Wheeler's help.Wheeler said the success of the project was due to Parker's efforts and willingness to follow through on the project from start to finish.“I've had other students talk about environmental initiatives on campus, but Parker had the persistence to make it happen," she said.4. How did the app help Stewart start his project?A. To find an ideal location.B. To conduct an energy audit.C. To look up specific information.D. To introduce financial aids.5. Who invested in Stewart's project at the beginning?A. Sayre School.B. His parents.C. Synergy Home.D. His community.6. What inspired Stewart to do his solar power project?A. The phone app he discovered.B. The air pollution in his community.C. A suggestion from his science teacher.D. An idea from his Environmental class.7. What contributed to Stewart's success according to Wheeler?A. His wisdom.B. His bravery.C. His willpower.D. His independence.CRescue workers and thousands of volunteers are not the only ones who have won hearts and minds for their heroic efforts in the search for survivors after Tuesday's powerful earthquake inMexico. Fifteen dogs from the navy's canine（军犬）unit have assisted this week in the rescue efforts at the sites ofcollapsed buildings across Mexico City, where more than 50 people have been pulled alive from the ruins.Of the canine heroes none is more famous or loved than Frida, a six-year-old white Labrador who in her distinguished service has won praise for her ability to detect people who have been trapped by various natural disasters. Over her admirable career she has found 52 people including 12 survivors in Mexico and other Latin American countries.This week, Frida and Evil and Echo—two Belgian Shepherds that have also been specially trained for rescue efforts一were sent to the site of the collapsed Enrique Rebsamen School in southern Mexico City.Equipped with goggles that protect her eyes from dust and smoke, boots to prevent damage to her paws while she climbs over rough ruins, Frida took to her work looking every bit the part of the ruins.If Frida detects the presence of a survivor, she is trained to bark to alert rescue workers but if she detects a corpse she stops suddenly before proceeding, her handler explained.Eleven children were rescued from ruins at the school but this time human rescue workers rather than the dogs were the ones who located them. .However, that hasn't stopped Frida from becoming a social media star and reaching a new level of fame this week. Videos and other social media posts that highlight the work of Frida and her impressive record of detecting people trapped by natural disasters spread quickly online.While she has yet to detect anyone trapped in the ruins this week, she and other rescue dogs are continuing to work tirelessly, searching through spaces that humans cannot reach. With the possibility that there are still people trapped alive, time will tell whether she adds to her rescue record.8. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. Severe earthquakes in MexicoB. Undertaking rescue work.C. People waiting for rescueD. Special rescuers in Mexico.9What makes Frida a social media star?A. Her rescue records and tireless work.B. Her cooperation with the rescue team.C. Her cool appearance with some special devices.D. Her ability to search spaces beyond humans' reach.10. What does the underlined word "corpse" in paragraph 5 probably mean?A. An article of clothing.B. An unconscious animal.C. A dead person.D. A special signal.11. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that_______ .A. Frida will achieve nothingB. Frida will probably work miraclesC. more dogs will be sent to the areaD. the rest of the rescue will be done by dogsDHybrid cars, also called hybrid electric vehicles （HEVs）, are cars that use more than one source of energy to run. They differ from the majority of cars on the road today in several ways. The main difference is that HEVs run on gasoline and electricity. An HEV car has a battery-powered motor as well as an engine that runs on gasoline.A hybrid car is a bit more expensive to produce than a regular car even though its engine is smaller. The reason for the greater expense is that the engine is more complex. It has specialized mechanisms that allow it to operate using gasoline and electric power. It also contains a computer that works differently from those of regular cars. Even though it is more expensive to purchase, it costs less to own than gas-powered cars. When an HEV car is at a stoplight or going at a speed below 15 miles per hour, its special computer tells it to run just on electric power. When the computer senses that the car needs more power, it puts the gasoline engine back to work. The computer is constantly deciding whether the car will use electricity, gas, or a combination of the two.Because the HEV has electric power to help it run, it uses much less fuel than most cars. In fact hybrid cars are the most fuel-efficient cars that exist today. They can get from 50 to 60 miles per gallon on average. The high mileage saves money for the car owner and conserves precious supplies of petroleum. Hybrid cars help the environment in other ways too. For example, whenthe HEV is using electric power, it does not send out poisonous smoke that pollute the air.Despite the differences between hybrid cars and regular cars, HEVs offer the same feel as regular cars. They handle the same way and speed up and stop in the same way too. HEVs, though, are generally smaller than gasoline-powered cars. Their rounded, aerodynamic frame helps add to their fuel efficiency but unfortunately does not add to the amount of space inside the vehicle.12. Which statement best explains the characteristics of an HEV?A. Safe and reliable.B. Expensive but long-lasting.C. Smaller engine, greater power.D. High price, low carbon.13. The transformation between the gasoline and electricity in an HEV is operated by ________.A. the engineB. the batteryC. the computerD. the driver14. For what purpose was the HEV invented?A. To save energy.B. To provide better service.C. To lower the expense of purchase.D. To give the drivers a different feeling.15. Where does the passage probably come from?A. A health report.B. A science magazine.C. A vehicle advertisement.D. A travel journal.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

In order to "reduce the carbon footprint," Stewart planned to produce enough solar energy to power the school's science labs. Now his plan is set to happen. The installation of 30 solar panels is scheduled for late January.As he began his research on solar energy, he discovered a useful phone app. By entering an address, he could find out how much sunlight the location receives each day. Based on how much sunlight it receives, Stewart found that his school building was the desired position.At the suggestion of his science teacher, Debbie Wheeler, Parker first performed an energy audit（测算）of the science lab to see how much energy a typical lab uses per day. Then, he started his research, contacting a local installer of solar panels, Synergy Home, to do the job.Parker lacked money for launching the project, so he convinced Sayre's head of school to fund him after explaining the benefits of solar power for the school and community. Since Sayre provided the initial seed money to provide supplies and the purchase of one panel, the project has grown to include a total of 30 panels. They are expected to generate enough energy to run all four of the science labs on campus."It feels like a dream to think that an idea I had resulted from my AP Environmental class would have this kind of impact," said Stewart, expressing gratitude for Wheeler's help.Wheeler said the success of the project was due to Parker's efforts and willingness to follow through on the project from start to finish.“I've had other students talk about environmental initiatives on campus, but Parker had the persistence to make it happen," she said.4．How did the app help Stewart start his project?A．To find an ideal location. B．To conduct an energy audit.C．To look up specific information. D．To introduce financial aids.5．Who invested in Stewart's project at the beginning?A．Sayre School. B．His parents.C．Synergy Home. D．His community.6．What inspired Stewart to do his solar power project?A．The phone app he discovered.B．The air pollution in his community.C．A suggestion from his science teacher.D．An idea from his Environmental class.7．What contributed to Stewart's success according to Wheeler?A．His wisdom. B．His bravery.C．His willpower. D．His independence.Rescue workers and thousands of volunteers are not the only ones who have won hearts and minds for their heroic efforts in the search for survivors after Tuesday's powerful earthquake inMexico. Fifteen dogs from the navy's canine（军犬）unit have assisted this week in the rescue efforts at the sites of collapsed buildings across Mexico City, where more than 50 people have been pulled alive from the ruins.Of the canine heroes none is more famous or loved than Frida, a six-year-old white Labrador who in her distinguished service has won praise for her ability to detect people who have been trapped by various natural disasters. Over her admirable career she has found 52 people including 12 survivors in Mexico and other Latin American countries.This week, Frida and Evil and Echo—two Belgian Shepherds that have also been specially trained for rescue efforts一were sent to the site of the collapsed Enrique Rebsamen School in southern Mexico City.Equipped with goggles that protect her eyes from dust and smoke, boots to prevent damage to her paws while she climbs over rough ruins, Frida took to her work looking every bit the part of the ruins.If Frida detects the presence of a survivor, she is trained to bark to alert rescue workers but if she detects a corpse she stops suddenly before proceeding, her handler explained.Eleven children were rescued from ruins at the school but this time human rescue workers rather than the dogs were the ones who located them.However, that hasn't stopped Frida from becoming a social media star and reaching a new level of fame this week. Videos and other social media posts that highlight the work of Frida and her impressive record of detecting people trapped by natural disasters spread quickly online.While she has yet to detect anyone trapped in the ruins this week, she and other rescue dogs are continuing to work tirelessly, searching through spaces that humans cannot reach. With the possibility that there are still people trapped alive, time will tell whether she adds to her rescue record.8．Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A．Severe earthquakes in Mexico B．Undertaking rescue work.C．People waiting for rescue D．Special rescuers in Mexico.9．What makes Frida a social media star?A．Her rescue records and tireless work.B．Her cooperation with the rescue team.C．Her cool appearance with some special devices.D．Her ability to search spaces beyond humans' reach.10．What does the underlined word "corpse" in paragraph 5 probably mean?A．An article of clothing. B．An unconscious animal.C．A dead person. D．A special signal.11．It can be inferred from the last paragraph that_______ .A．Frida will achieve nothingB．Frida will probably work miraclesC．more dogs will be sent to the areaD．the rest of the rescue will be done by dogsHybrid cars, also called hybrid electric vehicles （HEVs）, are cars that use more than one source of energy to run. They differ from the majority of cars on the road today in several ways. The main difference is that HEVs run on gasoline and electricity. An HEV car has abattery-powered motor as well as an engine that runs on gasoline.A hybrid car is a bit more expensive to produce than a regular car even though its engine is smaller. The reason for the greater expense is that the engine is more complex. It has specialized mechanisms that allow it to operate using gasoline and electric power. It also contains a computer that works differently from those of regular cars. Even though it is more expensive to purchase, it costs less to own than gas-powered cars. When an HEV car is at a stoplight or going at a speed below 15 miles per hour, its special computer tells it to run just on electric power. When the computer senses that the car needs more power, it puts the gasoline engine back to work. The computer is constantly deciding whether the car will use electricity, gas, or a combination of the two.Because the HEV has electric power to help it run, it uses much less fuel than most cars. In fact hybrid cars are the most fuel-efficient cars that exist today. They can get from 50 to 60 miles per gallon on average. The high mileage saves money for the car owner and conserves precious supplies of petroleum. Hybrid cars help the environment in other ways too. For example, whenthe HEV is using electric power, it does not send out poisonous smoke that pollute the air.Despite the differences between hybrid cars and regular cars, HEVs offer the same feel as regular cars. They handle the same way and speed up and stop in the same way too. HEVs, though, are generally smaller than gasoline-powered cars. Their rounded, aerodynamic frame helps add to their fuel efficiency but unfortunately does not add to the amount of space inside the vehicle.12．Which statement best explains the characteristics of an HEV?A．Safe and reliable. B．Expensive but long-lasting. C．Smaller engine, greater power. D．High price, low carbon.13．The transformation between the gasoline and electricity in an HEV is operated by________.A．the engine B．the batteryC．the computer D．the driver14．For what purpose was the HEV invented?A．To save energy. B．To provide better service.C．To lower the expense of purchase. D．To give the drivers a different feeling. 15．Where does the passage probably come from?A．A health report. B．A science magazine.C．A vehicle advertisement. D．A travel journal.二、完形填空Jake and Max Klein are twin brothers who have a passion for volunteering.

Today, employers are looking for even more一technical expertise paired with interpersonal and intrapersonal（内在）skills.31．You can learn the technical skills on the job or in school, but the soft skills are more challenging to get.32．That can make you the type of employee that companies want to hire and promote. Recent data in The Financial Times 2018 Skills Gap Study agrees that soft skills, like the ability to work well in a team, were rated as "most important" by 64 percent of respondents.During your business-school experience, you'll have the opportunity to build these skills as you work on group projects, interact with teachers, and participate in internships（实习）.When you reflect on your personal and professional lives, the people who have mastered skills like communication, listening, and cooperation are the people who stand out to you.33．But that doesn't mean that there aren't other skills on the top of many companies' wish lists.34．The first is "combine", which is the ability to combine and deal with information from multiple sources to solve complex problems. The second is "organize", or the ability to organize information to see relationships and to solve multiple, interrelated problems. 35．A．Market yourself as someone with soft skills.B．And they stand out to prospective employers too.C．So these skills in high demand have great value in the hiring market.D．What you may not realize is the lasting impact of developing skills like leadership.

The universe is expanding faster than it used to, meaning it’s about a billion years younger than we thought, a new study by a Nobel Prize winner says.At issue is a number called the Hubble constant, a calculation for how fast the universe is expanding. Some scientists call it the most important number in cosmology, the study of the origin and development of the universe.Using NASAS Hubble Space Telescope, lohns Hopkings University astronomer Adam Riess concluded in this week’s Astrophysical Journal that the figure is 9% higher than the previous calculation, which was based on studying leftovers from the Big Bang.The trouble is, Riess and others think both calculations are correct. Confused? That’s OK, so are the experts. They find the conflict so confusing that they are talking about coming up with “new physics”, incorporating (合作) perhaps some yet-to-be-discovered particle or other cosmic (宇宙) “fudge factors” like dark energy or dark matter“Its looking more and more like were going to need something new to explain this,” said Reiss, who won the 2011 Nobel in physics.NASA astrophysicist John Mather, another Nobel winner, said this leaves two obvious options, “1. We’re making mistakes we can’t find yet. 2. Nature has something we can’t findyet.”Even with the discovery, life continues on Earth the way it always has. But to astrophysicists trying to get a handle on our place in this expanding universe, this is a cosmic concern. In fact, the universe is really mystical (神秘的). Scientists have done lots of study about it but there is still much they haven’t discovered.（1）What is the finding of the new study?A The earth is younger than expected.B Many universal problems are rising.C The universe is growing faster than before.D The finding is based on past scientists’ calculations.（2）What does the underlined word “it” refer to in Paragraph 2?A The Hubble constant.B The faster expanding universe.C The development of the universe.D The scientific research on the universe.（3）How do the experts respond to the conflict of the finding in Paragraph 4?A They want to raise a new theory.B They want to explore dark matter.C They want to further calculate the finding.D They want to mix together both calculations.（4）What can we infer from John Mather’s words?A We cannot find anything useful.B Astronomers are making many mistakes.C We need to learn about the universe.D We cannot find something new from nature.4. Teens and preteens who start the school day really early tend to weigh slightly more than those who start later． That's the finding of a new study of nearly 30, 000 Canadians between the ages of 10 and 18． These data are the latest evidence that starting school too early can harm health．"We know from earlier studies that when school starts too early, kids can't get the sleep they need, " says Genevieve Gariepy． She works at Mcgill University inMontreal, Canada． Getting too little sleep can put kids at risk for a number of problems． Sleepy teens are more likely to be overweight, to have trouble concentrating and to struggle in school． They also are at higher risk of feeling depressed, using alcohol or drugs and getting in car accidents．As an epidemiologist （流行病学家）, Gariepy is interested in patterns of disease． She studies teen obesity, or extreme overweight． In this study, she wanted to know how earlier school start times might be linked to weight．"Overweight and obesity in adolescents is a big problem in North America, " she says． The number of overweight kids has grown over the past 30 years． About one in three U． S． and Canadian teens are now overweight or obese． Kids who don't sleep enough may be at higher risk． So Gariepy decided to find more about the impact of school start times．Her team collected start times of 362 Canadian schools and found that among "6 to 10" graders, those who started school earlier tended to be slightly heavier for their height． Every 10﹣minute delay in school start time was linked, on average, to a slightly lower weight among students who were the same sex, age and height． But it's not clear that changing school start time would help heavier kids lose weight． To know forsure, researchers would want to compare the same kids before and after changing to a later school start time．（1）What is the function of the first paragraph？________A To introduce the main topic．B To show concern for teenagersC To show the importance of the study．D To offer advice on school starting time．．（2）What does Garepy want to find out in her research？________A How to rid adolescents of being overweight．B The links between school start times and teen obesity．C Why more and more students are becoming obese．D The most suitable sleep time for school students．．（3）What can we infer about the study of Gariepy and her team？________A A 10﹣minute delay is enough．B Schools may value its conclusion．C Its conclusion is reliable．D More work remains to be done．．（4）What can be a suitable title of this text？________A Experts Worry about the Health of Adolescents．B Overweight Becomes Common among teenagers．C Study Links Weight to School Starting Time．D Students Tend to Sleep Less Than Before．二、七选五5. School Spirit Week can be held any time throughout the year in America． It is a special time when youthful exuberance （活力） is allowed full expression．（1）_______There are spirit band sessions， spirit assemblies and spirit teams that have one primary goal． That goal is to promote school tradition and encourage students to recognize their school as an important part of their life．（2）_______Some schools will use it as a kick﹣off for a charity（慈善）event such as collecting food for the local food bank．A Spirit Week program can include many types of supporting activities． At most events，students like to wear identifying clothing or articles that show they are a unified group and support their school． Spirit Week agendas often encourage students to wear fun and modern clothes．（3）_______Monday might be funny hat day， followed by Tuesdays Hawaiian shirt day and Wednesday's silly T﹣shirt day． Thursday could be pajama day，rounded off with Fridays school colors day．（4）_______ Students decorate the walls， halls and classrooms with banners， posters and other adornments． Spirit Week posters and banners can reflect the theme of the week， the pride in the school， or show any other creative support of the schoolParents love this special week as much as students and teachers do because parents have a great interest in the success of their children．（5）_______A．Spirit Week often have a central theme．B．Spirit Week is about having loads of fun at school．C．They can wear a different one for each day of the week．D．The kids are not the only ones dressed up for Spirit Week．E． It makes them very happy to see the kids enthused about school activities．F． It is also a time to recognize athletic teams competing during that season．G．The main purpose of Spirit Week is to get the kids supportive of the school．三、完形填空6.

Although many brand names are simple acronyms(首字母缩略词) or versions of their founders names, some of the companies we trust every day actually have fascinating and surprising back stories.StarbucksIt seems fitting that the most famous coffee brand in the world would take its name from one of the world’s greatest works of literature. The inspiration for the name of the coffeehouse came from Herman Melville’sMoby Dick. The founders’ original idea was to name the company after the Captain Ahab’s ship, but they eventually decided that Pequot wasn’t a great name for coffee, so they chose Ahab’s first mate, Starbucks, as the name instead.GoogleGoogle was originally called Backrub, for it searched for links in every corner of the Web. In 1997, when the founders of the company were searching for a new name showing a huge amount of data for their rapidly improving search technology, a friend suggested the word “googol”. When a friend tried to register the new domain (域) name, he misspelled “googol” as “google”.NikeOriginally founded as a distributor for Japanese running shoes, the company was originally named BRS, or Blue Ribbon Sports. In 1971, BRS introduced its own soccer shoe, a model called Nike, which is alsothe name for the Greek goddess of victory. In 1978, the company officially renamed itself as Nike, Inc.The right name is essential to a company’s success, and a great origin story is just as important as a great product. An attractive origin story is one more thing that keeps customers guessing, wondering, and buying its products.1. What is the name of the Captain Ahab’s ship?A. Moby Dick.B. Starbucks.C. Pequot.D. Herman Melville.2. Why did the founders of the Google want to change its name?A. They mistook their name.B. They wanted new customers.C. The company’s original name was too long.D. The company’s search technology was improving rapidly.3. Where does the importance of the origin story of one company lie in?A. It can change the company’s image.B. It can add myth to the company.C. It explains the development of the company to customers.D. It makes customers imagine and purchase its goods.BBeing an Olympian (奥运会选手) demands focus, determination, and a competitive spirit. Plus, representing your country is a lot of pressure. However, two athletes recently showed the world another quality that is definitely worth championing.Qatar's Mutaz Essa Barshim and Italy's Gianmarco Tamberi were competing in the high jump on Sunday when they reached a stalemate (僵局). Both men had managed to jump over a surprising 2.37 meters with no faults along the way. However, after three attempts neither managed the next level of 2.39 meters.An Olympic official suggested ajump-offbetween the two friends and rivals (竞争对手) to determine who would get the gold medal. But Barshim had another plan to reward their efforts.“Can we have two golds?” he asked the official.The official agreed and the two men jumped for joy. This was the first time a gold medal had been shared since 1912. “He is one of my best friends, not only on the track, but outside the track. We work together. This is a dream come true.” shared Barshim.The decision to share the medal was particularly meaningful to Tamberi. The Italian had suffered an ankle injury that prevented him from competing in the Rio Olympics in 2016, and it nearly put an end to his career altogether. So this year he brought along his cast to this year's Olympics with “Road to Tokyo 2021” to inspire him along the way.For Barshim, the gold has topped off his already impressive medal collection, having received a bronze and a silver medal in 2012 and 2016 respectively.Despite all the glory of receiving a gold medal for their countries, their achievement means so much more. These two individuals, trying to do their very best for their countries, have provided a wonderful example to allthose competing in sports. They've summed up exactly what it means to take part in a global event with a generous and compassionate (有同情心的) spirit.4. What happened to Barshim and Tamberi in the competition?A. They ended in a tie.B. They quit the competition.C. They set a new record.D. They ran out of strength.5. What does the underlined word “jump-off” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. Debate.B. Vote.C. Celebration.D. Extra round.6. Why was the gold medal particularly meaningful to Tamberi?A. It could bring him a lot of money.B. It may make up for his regret in 2016.C. It was a glory for his country.D. It could complete his medal collection.7. What does the author mainly want to convey in the text?A. The importance of sharing.B. The glory of winning gold medals.C. The valuable and special team spirit.D. The considerate and sharing Olympic spirit.CScientists often compare coral reefs(珊瑚礁) to underwater rainforests, yet unlike the leafy plant base of a forest, corals are animals. The soft creatures are naturally half-transparent and get their brilliant color1 from algae(藻类) living inside them. When corals experience stress from hot temperatures or pollution, theyhaltthe interdependent relationship with algae, typically pushing them out and turning white. Corals are still alive when they are white, but they're at risk and many eventually die, turning dark brown.Scientists around the world are looking for means to protect and maybe increase corals. One common option is to create more protected areas — essentially national parks in the ocean. Beyond nature preserves, some conservationists are looking to more hands-on methods. One research center in the Florida Keys is exploring a form of natural selection to keep corals remaining. The reef system in the Keys has been hit hard by climate change and pollution, which is especially tough, because corals there help support fisheries worth $ 100 million every year.To keep the wild ecosystem alive, Erinn Muller, the center's director, and her team are harvesting samples of the corals that survived the environmental stress naturally, keeping them to make them reproduce, and thenreattaching them to the reef. They have 46,000 corals on plastic frames under the sea. So far, the center has regrown over 70,000 corals from five different species on damaged reefs.In The Bahamas, Ross Cunning, a research biologist at Chicago's Shedd Aquarium, focuses on corals with genes that could make them natural candidates for restoration projects. He published a study of two Bahamian reefs, one that survived an extreme 2015 heat wave, and one that didn't. "We think their ability to deal with these higher temperatures is built into their genes," says Cunning. There's evidence of corals evolving more quickly to resist rapidly warming climate. The big question scientists need investigate, adds Gunning, is how much more heat corals can adapt to.8. What does the underlined word "halt" in the first paragraph mean?A. End.B. Develop.C. Strengthen.D. Weaken.9. What do Muller and her team do to save corals?A. Restore the damaged reefs.B. Grow corals by hand underwater.C. Create more protected areas.D. Move corals to unpolluted areas.10. What do Gunning's words suggest?A. Many corals have been genetically improved.B. Cooling down the waters is key to rescuing corals.C. Reasons for corals surviving heat waves are shocking.D. The highest temperature corals can survive is unclear.11. Which can be a suitable title for the text?A. Relationship between corals and algaeB. Efforts made to save coralsC. Impact of climate warming on coralsD. Survival crisis faced by coral reefsDThe United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) included on December 17, 2020 China's Tai Chi on the RepresentativeList of the Intangible（无形的）Cultural Heritage of Humanity. The decision was announced during the online meeting of the UNESCO Intergovernmental Committee for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage held from December 14 to19 inKingston, capital ofJamaica.“Born in the mid-17th century in a small village named Chenjiagou located in Central China's Henan province, Tai Chi is not only a kind of traditional Wushu integrated with slow movements and deep breathing, but is also deeply rooted in many areas of Chinese culture, such as medicine and philosophy,”Zhu Xianghua says, who is the son of the famous Tai Chi master Zhu Tiancai.Although it has spread to more than 150 countries and regions, attracting more than 100 million people to practice, the idea that Tai Chi is for the elderly has stopped many young people practicing the ancient Wushu. They think of it as a slow exercise, which is specially made and better suited for their grandparents. Instead, many young people are turning to the Indian practice of yoga（瑜伽）to relieve stress, which was placed on the UNESCO's List in 2019.In order to promote Tai Chi, joint efforts have been made from individuals and the Chinese government in the last decades. Xi'an Jiaotong University requires students to learn Tai Chi. Wang Yunbing, a professor in the university's sports center, stressed that Tai Chi is not only good physical exercise-researchers from the American College of Rheumatology find that it can help manage several diseases but is also conned ted to ancient Chinese eivilization. Since 2014, the World Tai Chi Championships have been held every two years by the International Wushu Federation. It provides a platform for communication and learning between the Tai Chi masters and Tai Chi lovers around the globe. In January 2020, Tai Chi became an official event in the 2026 Dakar Youth Olympic Games.12. What does Zhu Xianghua say about Tai Chi in paragraph 2?A. It originated from fast Kung Fu action.B. It was born around the 1750s in a village.C. It is related to other cultural fields ofChina.D. It integrates Chinese medicine and western philosophy.13. Why do some young people choose to practice yoga instead of Tai Chi?A. They think it easier to practice yoga to keep fit.B. The elderly stop young people practicing Tai Chi.C. They consider Tai Chi is custom-built for old people.D. Yoga was included in the world culture earlier than Tai Chi.14. What is the main purpose of the last paragraph?A. To promote contemporary Chinese civilization.B. To show many efforts made to popularize Tai Chi.C. To stress the importance of Chinese Tai Chi masters.D. To advise people to practise Tai Chi to cure diseases.15.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. Tai Chi Steps on the UNESCO's List.B. Tai Chi is Competing against Yoga.C. Tai Chi Has Regained populate Globally.D. Opinions Greatly Differ on Tai Chi and Yoga.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

In January, February, March and DecemberD. In September, October, November and December2. Before you go to the Vail Marriott Mountain Resort, you will have to take ________with you.A. helmetsB. gogglesC. suncreamD. a trail map3. What will a skiing beginner who wants to enjoy himself prefer to choose?A. Blue SquareB. Black DiamondC Double Black Diamonds D. Green CircleBMost animals living in crowded conditions have particularly strong immune systems, so it long puzzled researchers that honeybees do not.Part of the answer, discovered in 2015, is that queen bees vaccinate their eggs by moving parts of proteins from disease-causing pathogens to them before they are laid. These act as antigens totriggerthe development of a protective immune response in the developing young. But that observation raises the question of how the queen receives her antigen supply in the first place? Dr. Harwood wondered if the nurse bees were taking in parts of pathogens and passing them to royal jelly they were producing while eating the food brought to the hive.To test this idea, he teamed up with a group at theUniversityofHelsinki, inFinland, led by Dr Heli Salmela. Together, they collected about 150 nurse bees and divided them among six queenless mini hives equipped with baby bees to look after. Instead of honey, they fed the nurses on sugar water, and for three of the hives they added P. larvae, a bacterium causing a hive-killing disease, to the sugar water.In this case, to stop such an infection happening, Dr Harwood and Dr Salmela heat-treated the pathogens and so killed them in advance. They also labelled the dead bacteria with a fluorescent dye, to track them easily. And, sure enough, it was confirmed that parts of P. larvae were getting into royal jelly released by those bees which had been fed with the sugar water containing that.All told, these findings suggest that nurse bees are indeed, through their royal jelly, passing antigens onto the queen for vaccinating her eggs. They also mean the nurses are vaccinating baby bees as well, because baby bees, too, receive royal jelly for the first few days after they come out.4. What does the underlined word “trigger" in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. Cut out.B. Set off.C. Slow down.D. Put off.5. Which is the main experimental subject in Paragraph 3?A. Queen bees.B. Nurse bees.C. Bee eggs.D. Baby bees.6. Why was P. larvae added to the sugar water?A. To test if it would cause a hive-killing disease.B. To check how the bacterium would affect the hive.C. To see whether the target bees would favor the taste.D. To confirm the bees would pass pathogens to royal jelly.7. What is the text mainly about?A. How bees multiply.B. How antigens function.C. How bees get vaccinated.D. How immune system works.CStarting at university or college can be a big challenge, especially if you’re living away from home for the first time. You arefaced with big questions such as, “Who’s going to do my washing?” “Who’s going to tidy my room?” And, most importantly, “How am I going to eat?” Yes, living on your own means cooking for yourself, and when you’re living a student lifestyle, this could be a recipe for disaster.Students, in the UK at least, often rely on generally available food such as baked beans or cheese on toast. And for the more adventurous, there’s “spag bol” — spaghetti bolognaise(肉酱意粉), that is, cooked spaghetti served with a ground beef and tomato sauce — a budget-friendly solution. If you make a huge pan of it, it can probably last you a whole week! Other low-cost options include jar sauces and oven pizzas.Recently, a British supermarket suggested that rose harissa paste, organic cider vinegar and Swiss bouillon powder were the important food materials needed for the “student cupboard”. But are these items considered essential and affordable for someone on a budget?As a matter of fact, living on a budget is certainly one barrier to eating a well-balanced diet. What’s more, some young people don’t know much about cooking, and for many young students, there are more fun things to go and do than just stay inside and cook. That’s where takeaways and microwave meals come in.What should a health-conscious student really have in his or her food cupboard? Jack Monroe, a food writer and campaigner, has words to say: baked beans, lemon juice, canned tomatoes and tomato ketchup, described as“salt, sugar, vinegar and tomato all in one handy squeezy bottle”. And should that not appeal, you can always wait till your next visit to your mum and dad for a square meal!8. What does the author indicate by “this could be a recipe for disaster”?A. Cooking is difficult for a student.B. Students must cook if they live alone.C. It is important to live independently.D. Learning to cook will cause disasters.9. What is the feature of “spag bol”?A. It is delicious.B. It is healthy.C. It saves money.D. It needs little skill.10. What is paragraph 4 mainly about?A. How well-balanced diets can be realized.B. How students can eat healthily with limited money.C. Why living on a budget is common among students.D Why students choose takeaways and microwave meals.11. Why does the author write the last paragraph?A. To advocate visiting parents.B. To offer some tips.C. To promote health consciousness.D. To introduce a writer.DIn the world of Chinese archaeology(考古学), a sign of a dig's importance is the sight of Zhou Mingsheng at work. A field technician who has worked at archaeological sites all aroundChina. Master Zhou iscredited with the gentlest touch in his profession. Born into a farming family, he is a “national-level craftsman” with a talent for using simple tools to get relics(遗物) that wouldcrumblein other hands, says his current boss, Wang Xu, director of an archaeological site at Shuanghuaishu, a Neolithic(新石器时代的) settlement near the Yellow River in the central province of Henan.It is not beauty that attracts visitors to Shuanghuaishu. At 5,300 years old, the settlement is the work of a culture too simple to have left behind many buried treasures. The single most precious find, to date, is a finger-length sculpture of a silkworm. Nor is the setting lovely: an area surrounded by deafening insects, between a highway and two power stations. Rather, the site's importance is historical. For since the birth of Chinese archaeology in the 1920s, it has been inseparable from claims thatChinahas the oldest unbroken civilisation on Earth.Leading archaeologists say that the site has the right combination of location, age and distinctive culturalelements to be the capital of an early Chinese kingdom. That would make it a bridge betweenChina's written history and the era of the Yellow Emperor, who is said to rule over these central plains almost 5,000 years ago, though many foreign scholars doubt his existence. Chinese media call the site proof ofChina's 5,000 years of history.Foreigners complain about a lack of written records, Mr. Wang notes. Perhaps they are missing symbols that will one day be understood, for instance in patterned pottery. Outsiders “can't keep using Western standards to apply to Chinese ruins,” he argues.12. What does the underlined word “crumble” in Paragraph 1 mean?A. Break.B. Start.C. Wait.D. Shine.13. Why does Shuanghuaishu attract visitors?A. It has appealing scenery.B. It has various precious treasures.C. It is of great historical significance.D. It is easily accessible.14. What is Mr. Wang's attitude towards foreigners’ view?A. Unconcern.B. Disapproving.C. Supportive.D. Not mentioned.15. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. Chinese history amazes the world.B. Chinese archaeology catches on.C. China follows its tradition.D.Chinadigs its past.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
