People originally thought the dog had been abandoned, but then realized that he looked healthy, so people asked around about him. It turned out that the dog had indeed been spending most of his time around that crossroad, but a woman had been coming -.round regularly to bring him food and water.One day, while photographing the dog everyone called Leo, a reporter met the woman who had been taking care of him.

No one knows the result until the last minuteCA team of engineers at Harvard University has been inspired by Nature to create the first robotic fly. The mechanical fly has become a platform for a series of new high-tech integrated systems. Designed to do what a fly does naturally, the tiny machine is the size of a fat housefly. Its mini wings allow it to stay in the air and perform controlled flight tasks.“It’s extremely important for us to think about this as a whole system and not just the sum of a bunch of individual components,” said Robert Wood, the Harvard engineering professor who has been working on the robotic fly project for over a decade. A few years ago, his team got the go-ahead to start piecing together the components. “The added difficulty with a project like this is that actually none of those components are off the shelf and so we have to develop them all on our own,” he said.They engineered a series of systems to start and drive the robotic fly. “The seemingly simple system which just moves the wings has a number of interdependencies on the individual components, each of which individually has to perform well, but then has to be matched well to everything it’s connected to,” said Wood. The flight device was built into a set of power, computation, sensing and control systems. Wood says the success of the project proves that the flying robot with these tiny components can be built and manufactured.While this first robotic flyer is linked to a small, off-board power source, the goal is eventually to equip it witha built-in power source, so that it might someday perform data-gathering work at rescue sites, in farmers’ fields or on the battlefield. “Basically, it should be able to take off, land and fly around,” he said.Wood says the design offers a new way to study flight mechanics and control at insect-scale. Yet, the power, sensing and computation technologies on board could have much broader a pplications. “You can start thinking about using them to answer open scientific questions, you know, to study biology in ways that would be difficult with the animals, but using these robots instead,” he said. “So there are a lot of technologies and open i nteresting scientific questions that are really what drives us on a day to day basis.”8. Which of the following statements was the difficulty engineers met while making the robotic fly?A. They did not have sufficient fund.B. No ready-made components were available.C. There was no model in their mind.D. It was hard for them to assemble the components.9. What can be inferred from paragraphs 3 and 4?A. The robotic fly has been put into wide application.B. The robotic fly consists of a flight device and a control system.C. Information from many sources can be collected by the robotic fly.D. The robotic fly can just fly in limited areas at present.10. Which of the following can be learned from the passage?A. Wood’s design can replace animals in some e xperiments.B. Animals are not allowed in biological experiments.C. The robotic flyer is designed to learn about insects.D. There used to be few ways to study how insects fly.11. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A. The Development of Robotic FlyB. Robotic Fly Promotes Engineering ScienceC. Harvard’s Efforts in Making Robotic FlyD. Robotic Fly Imitates Real Life InsectDThe idea that computers have some amount of “intelligence” is not new, says Ralph Haupter, the preside nt of Microsoft Asia, pointing as far back as 1950 when computer pioneer Alan Turing asked whether machines can think. “So it has taken nearly 70 years for the right combination of factors to come together to move AI from concept toreality,” says Haupter.It is predicted that the development of artificial intelligence will be the story of the coming generations, not just the coming year, but as 2019 gets underway, you’ll find AI will begin to touch your life in many ways according to some researchers.“Per sonal assistant AIs will keep getting smarter. As our personal assistants learn more about our daily routines, I can imagine the day I need not to worry about preparing dinner. My AI knows what I like to eat, which days of the week I like to cook at home, and makes sure that when I get back from work all my groceries are waiting at my doorstep, ready for me to prepare that delicious meal I had been longing for.” ---Alecjandro Troccoli, senior research scientist, NVIDIA.“Thanks to AI, the face will be the new credit card, the new driver’s license and the new barcode (条形码). Facial recognition is already completely transforming security with biometric capabilities being adopted, and seeing how technology and business are connected, like Amazon is with Whole Foods, I can see a near future where people will no longer need to stand in line at the store.” ---Georges Nahon, president, Orange Institute, a global research laboratory.“2019 will be the year AI becomes real for medicine. By the end of the year we’re se eing solutions for population health, hospital operations and a broad set of clinical specialties quickly follow behind.” ---Mark Michalski, executive director, Massachusetts General Hospital.12. What can we know about AI from the first two paragraphs?A. People didn't expect AI to develop so rapidly.B. The idea of AI just came up recently.C. The concept of AI was put forward by Ralph Haupter.D. It took more than 70 years to turn the concept into reality.13. Who sees the future of AI doing housework instead of human being?A. Alan Turing.B. Georges Nahon.C. Mark Michalski.D. Alejandro Troccoli.14. What is Georges Nahon’s job?A. Executive director of a hospital.B. President of a research laboratory.C. Chairman of an energy corporation.D. Chief operating officer of a newspaper.15. How is the passage developed?A. By explaining cause and effect.B. By presenting research results.C. By listing some predictions.D. By describing personal experiences.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

AThailand's southern beaches attract travelers with their clean water and dramatic cliffs (峭壁), but there's more to explore in this Southeast Asian country.Lopburi for history buffsBypass the tour groups at the ancient city of Ayutthaya and head two hours north of the capital, Bangkok, for a peaceful walk through Thai history. Lopburi, one of Thailand's oldest cities, boasts Khmer-era temples and the uncrowded ruins of King Narai's Palace, which was built in the 1600s. It's also known for the monkeys that gather at Phra Prang Sam Yot temple in the center of town.Ban Krut for beach bumsIn Ban Krut, travelers will find one of the cleanest and quietest stretches of white sandy beach within driving distance of Bangkok. This sleepy seaside community, known mostly by locals, is afive-hour drive or six-hour train trip down the Gulf of Thailand. Don't miss the magnificent Wat Tang Sai, a huge, fairy tale castle-like Buddhist temple.Cave for holiday hikersHiking trails, wetlands and forests make Khao Sam Roi Yot National Park a weekend adventure worthy of topping your Thailand to-do list. The park's crown jewel is the extraordinary Phraya Nakhon Cave. Come early to catch the picturesque chamber flooded with morning sunshine that spotlights the royal pavilion that sits inside.River Kwai for nature loversMost visitors come for the beaches, but the rivers and parks in Thailand's Kanchanaburi province have much to offer. Scenic trails and waterfalls abound in Sai Yok and Erawan national parks. Just two hours from Bangkok is the bridge made famous in the book Bridge over the River Kwai by French author, Pierre Boulle, and the 1957 Academy Award-winning 1957 film adaptation of the same name. Stay on the river at one of Kanchanaburi's many floating hotels, where you can travel to your front door.1．From which of the following can you learn more about Thai history?A．Ban Krut B．KanchanaburiC．Phraya Nakhon Cave D．Lopburi2．What can tourists do in Khao Sam Roi Yot National Park?A．Visit temples. B．Meet lovely monkeys.C．Go hiking. D．Go to the beach.3．What can we know from the passage?A．River Kwai was made famous by a book and a filmB．Tourists can stay at the floating hotels on River Kwai.C．Most visitors visit Thailand for rivers and parksD．Travellers can find Khmer-era temples in Ban Krut.BAlaska state officials are hosting Walmart executives in the state capital this week in an effort to resolve a months-old argument over Alaskan salmon fisheries’ sustainability qualifications.The seeds of the quarrel were planted several years ago when several Alaskan fisheries decided to end their relationship with the Marine Stewardship Council—the famous global organization that states and proves the truthfulness of sustainable fishing—to seek out other means assuring customers of their sustainable practices. But last June, Walmart told Alaskan fisheries that it would not be buying salmon sourced from fisheries not certified by the Marine Stewardship Council.Now Walmart is caught between two forces–Alaska fisheries and “buy American” enthusiasts who think the company’s firs t responsibility should be to American industry, and environmentalists who think Walmart should make as strong a commitment to environmentally sustainable industry as possible.But from a broader perspective, this latest noise is an object lesson in why the concept of corporate (公司的) responsibility has shortcomings to begin with. Walmart—like most successful corporations—is pretty good at offering products their customers want at low prices. When it tries to promote broader public goods, like a clean environment, or lower unemployment for veterans, it’s nowhere near as successful. Here’s a few of Walmart’s more notable corporate-responsibility confusion:The Buy-American Debacle: Walmart’s first major corporate responsibility push was an effort in the 1980s to promote American-made products. But the campaign ran aground (搁浅) after a NBC investigation revealed that the company was actually selling products manufactured in India as “Made American.”The Going Green Campaign: Walmart launched on a sustainability campaign aimed at making the retail giants operations much more environmentally friendly. Though Walmart and the media have done much to raise visibility of these efforts, the actual results have been lacking. According to a recent report from the Institut e for Local Self Reliance (ILSR), Walmart’s sustainability campaign is much more focused on making its operations appear green to customers than stopping doing things that would actually help the environment, like reducing emissions.In reality, these exam ples simply show that one can’t realistically expect corporations to behave in a way that is opposite to making profits. But that doesn’t mean that the goal of fishing sustainability isn’t achievable. It’s just that the corporate structure isn’t our best m eans of achieving them—the government is.4．What is the function of the Marine Stewardship Council?A．To advocate sustainable fishing practices. B．To persuade supermarkets to buy its products. C．To solve disagreements between fisheries and supermarkets.D．To guarantee the safety of goods supplied by supermarkets.5．According to the author, Walmart’s corporate responsibility is ________.A．confusing B．heavyC．environmental-friendly D．unsatisfying6．From Paragraph 5, we know ________.A．Walmart’s sustainability campaign worked wellB．Walmart might have profited at the cost of the environmentC．ILSR’s report was part of Walmart’s campaign planD．Walmart had no intention to protect the environment at all7．Who should be mainly responsible for achieving the goals of fishing sustainability?A．The company structure B．WalmartC．The government D．The Marine Stewardship CouncilCA cloudless Southern California sky looms over the Pro Park Course for the Pro Skate Park Series. Here to compete are some of the top female skaters in the world. The women skaters range in age from early adolescence to early 30s, but in a sport that embraces youth, there is one who stands out. At 8 years old, Sky Brown, would be the youngest skater, male or female, ever to compete at this series.She is known to some — a minor star of the viral age. When her first video was posted to YouTube, Sky initially gained a little internet fame as a premature and level-headed 4-year-old —highly intelligent, well-spoken beyond her years, hugely talented, and yet grounded. Four years later, it was announced that she would be competing at Huntington Beach. Still, the question remains: Is she truly ready, or will this be another case where reality comes crashing down hard on all the hype?And then, it turns out to be anything but. Sky goes out and presents one surprise after another. Commentators Neal Hendrix and Chris Pastras are left in awe, “Half of the pros can't do.” The only thing that makes the prodigy look like a kid is her size. In every other regard, she holds her own with skaters 10 and 20 years her senior. Before the competition at Huntington, Sky was a curiosity. After, she is a competitor.Sky's first memory of a skateboard is seeing her father, Stuart, doing a few tricks in front of the family home. “It always looked really fun,”says Sky. “I just kept begging to try it.” Sky progressed quickly, although she never had a formal coach. Somehow she just had the knack. Every movement, every shift in weight, every push and pull of body on board, she absorbed. Then, she did it herself.“You get so close to making it,” she says of her process, “and think you're about to land it, and then it takes you 100 more times. I'm always saying to my parents, 'Just one last try.'” If anyone was pushing, striving to get better, it was Sky herself, learning new tricks the same way everyone else does — by trying, failing, falling, and getting back up again.8．What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 2?A．To show Sky’s early experience.B．To show Sky’s talents from varied aspects.C．To show the public’s doubt about Sky’s competence.D．To show the public’s recognition of Sky’s performances.9．What do we know about Sky?A．She equals the senior skaters in the competition.B．She looks like a professional skater in terms of her figure.C．She participates in a competition inappropriate for the young.D．She has already become a household name before the competition.10．What is the main reason for Sky’s achievements?A．Her parents push her too hard.B．She practices hard and never quits.C．Her coach is very strict with her.D．Her father exerts a strong influence on her.11．What is the best title for the text?A．A Rocky Road Leads to Internet FameB．A Strong Competitor Stands out from CrowdC．An 8-year-old Skater Amazes the WorldD．A Wonder Shows at the Pro Skate Park SeriesDDon't get mad the next time you catch your teenager texting when he promised to be studying. He simply may not be able to resist. A University of lowa(UI) study found teenagers are far more sensitive than adults to the immediate effect or reward of their behaviors. The findings may help explain why the initial rush of texting may be more attractive for adolescents than the long-term pay off of studying."For the teenager, 'the rewards are attractive." says Professor Jatin Vaidya，an author of the study. "They draw adolescent. Sometimes, the rewards are a kind of motivation for them. Even when a behavior is no longer in a teenager's best interest to continue, they will, because the effect of the reward is still there and lasts much longer in adolescents than in adults ."For parents,that means limiting distraction (分心的事情）so teenagers can make better choices. Take the homework and social media dilemma: At 9 p.m., shut off everything except a computer that has no access to Facehook or Twitter, the researchers advise. "I'm not saying they shouldn't be allowed access to technology," Vaidya says. But some help in netting their concentration is necessary for them so they can develop those impulse-co ntrol skills.”In their study,Vaidya and co-author Shaun Vecera note researchers generally believe teenagers are impulsive（冲动的)，make bad decisions，and engage in risky behavior because the frontal lobes （额叶）of their trains are not fully developed. But the UI researchers wondered. whether something more fundamental was going on with adolescents to cause behaviors independent of higher-level reasoning."We wanted to try to understand the brain's reward system how it change from chillhood to adulthood," Says Vaidya, who adds the reward character in the human brain is easier than decision-making. “We've been trying to understand the reward process in adolescence and whether there is more to adolescence behavior than an under-developed frontal lobe,”he adds.For their study ,the researchers persuaded 40 adolescents, aged 13 and 16,and 40 adults, aged 20 and 35 to participate.In the future,researchers hope to look into the psychological and neurological（神经学上的）aspects of their results.12．What does the passage mainly tell us?A．The initial rush of texting is less attractive for adolescents than the long-term pay off of studying. B．Always, rewards are attractive to teenagers.C．Resistance can be controlled well by adolescents.D．Getting rewards is the greatest motivation for adolescents to study.13．Which statement agrees with Vaidya's idea?A．The influence of the reward is weak in adolescents.B．Parents should help children in making decisions.C．Children should have access to the Internet.D．Children need help in refocusing their attention.14．What result does teenagers' brain underdevelopment lead to?A．Doing things after some thought.B．Making good decisions.C．Joining in dangerous actions.D．Escaping risky behavior.15．How did the researchers carry out their study?A．By making a comparison of brain examinations.B．By examining adults’ brain.C．By examining teenage brain.D．By building the train’s reward system.第二节(共5小题:每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

AIf the word researcher brings to mind someone who works in a laboratory doing experiments or reads a11 day in a librar y,then meet Dr.Sylvia Earle.Dr.Earle has carried out much of her research deep under the sea.Her outstanding work at sea ha s included leading around 70 expeditions(探索)and spending over 6,500 hours under the water.no wonder she ha She also holds the world record for the deepest walk alone on the ocean floor at a depth of 381 metres.It’ｓs been given the nickname“Her Deepness”．As a child,Dr.Earle was always interested in wildlife and was never afraid to find out about nature.Her parents told her totouch animals and insects,and not to be afraid of them.When she was older,she was given the opportunity to develop this int erest thanks to scho1arships to study botany at university.She also took courses in sea diving and decided to devote herself t o marine(海洋的)biology.It was this decision and her determined character that led her to have a truly remarkable career.After several years of diving,Dr.Earle took part in a research expedition in an underwater laboratory.The laboratory wascalled a Tektite Habitat and it allowed divers to remain under the water to carry out research for weeks at a time.In 1970 anall-female group went on the sixth expedition of the Tektite II scientists-in-the-water programme.Dr.Earle was asked to lead the expedition.Along with another four women-three scientists and an engineer-she stayed in the Tektite Habitat for two wee ks.Marine life has always been at the centre of Dr.Earle’s work and she is highly respected for her authority in this field.She is often asked to give talks by environmental groups about marine life as well as her plan to create a global network of marine protected areas. What makes her extra special is that she doesn’t look upon her work as a job,but as her vocation(天职)in life.21.In what way is Dr.Earle different from most researchers we know about?A.She works in a laboratory doing experiments all day.B.She reads all day in a library.C.She carries out much of her research deep under the sea.D.She has broken lots of world records.22.What’s the main idea of Paragraph 2？A.Dr.Earle’s interest in wildlife led her to a truly remarkable career.B.Dr.Earle’s success is chiefly due to her family background.C.Dr.Earle’s success is chiefly due to the scholarships to study botany at university.D.V arious factors have contributed to Dr.Earle’s success.23.Which of the following is true according to Paragraph 3？A.Five women took part in the expedition.B.Five scientists took part in the expedition.C.Dr.Earle was an ordinary member of the group.D.The group stayed under water for three weeks.24.What does Dr.Earle hope to achieve in the future?A.To keep marine life at the centre of her work.B.To create protected areas in the oceans around the world.C.To travel around the world giving talks.D.To look upon her work as her vocation in life.BA paperclip,made of steel wire bent into a looped()shape,is an instrument used to hold sheets of paper toget her.This common device is a wonder of simplicity and function.But where did this simple,cheap,and practical invention come from?In the late 19th century,the most common way to hold papers together was by using a pin.Although the pin was an ine xpensive tool and was easily removable,it would 1eave holes in the ter,as steelvwire became more common,invent ors began to notice its elastic()feature.With this feature,it could be stretched and twisted into various clip-likeobjects.In the years just before 1900,quite a few paperclip designs appeared.The name most frequently associated with the paperclip invention is Johan Vaaler,a Norwegian inventor.However,Vaaler’s clips were not the same as the paperclips curr entlyin use.Specifically,they did not have the inside loop we see today.The familiar looped design was invented by Gem Manuf acturing Ltd.in England.This clip is therefore sometimes known as the Gem clip.Because of Vaaler,the paperclip played an important historical role in Norway.During World War II,Norway was occu pied by the Nazis.Norwegians were prohibited from wearing any symbol of their national unity(),such as buttons wi th the initials of their king.Thus,in protest,they started wearing paperclips to show their unity.The reason for doing this wassimple:Paperclips were a Norwegian invention whose original function was to bind together.After the war,a giant paperclip statue was put up in Oslo to honour Vaaler—even though his design was never actually produced.25.According to the first paragraphthe paperclip is________.A.made of paperB.for holding clothes togetherC.shaped like a pinD.inexpensive and useful26.One way the paperclip is better than the pin is that_________A.it is cheaperB.it is simplerC.it doesn’t damage the paperD.it can be removed more easily27.Which of the following best shows what the Gem clip looks like?28.The last paragraph is mainly about_________.A.how widely used Vaaler’s clip isB.how V aalers clip became a national symbolC.how the Nazis ruled the Norwegian peopleD.why Norwegians had the initials of their king on their buttonsCI was born on the last day of February.I’ve always felt sorry for February,squeezed between the big months of January( named for the Roman god Janus,keeper of gateways)and March(after Mars,the god of war).The first Roman calendar,it is said,had 10 months and no February.Beginning at the vernal equinox()with March,i t ended with December.In an agricultural society,winter was of little importance,and thus went undivided.January and February were added about 700 B.C.by the second king of Rome,Numa Pompilius.He made all the months 29 or 31 days,but shortened February,the last month of the year,by giving it only 28.Next,it was the church’s turn.In 1582 Pope Gregory XIII announced a new calendar in Europe.Many changes were ma de,but the Pope passed up yet another chance to give February equality with the other months.It’s messy,even dangerous,changing how we measure time,but Pope Gregory was hardly the last one to try.The League o f Nations received over 150 new calendar designs,and the United Nations has considered more proposals since.Each propos al involves something that supposedly modernizes the calendar.But I have a simpler proposal that won’t lead to chaos,and will correct the historical injustices against Februarymove the last day of January and the last day of March into February to make it a normal month with 30 days,and a respecta ble 31 on leap years().This would not add or subtract a single day from the calendar year.It’s a great idea.And unlike J ulius and Augustus,I won’t even demand a month named in my honor.29.The first Roman calendar had only 10 months because_________.A.February hated to be squeezed between the big monthsB.the god of war always fought with January and FebruaryC.the Romans did not like the cold winter weatherD.it was Considered unnecessary to divide winter30.Which of the following is closest to Numa Pompilius’calendar?31.The writer sounds_____in the passage.A.sadB.humorousC.happyD. angryDOne important thing during the pre-Christmas rush at our house was the arrival of my daughter’s kindergarten report car d.She got high praise for her reading,vocabulary and overall enthusiasm.On the other hand,We learnt that she has work to do on her numbers and computer skills,though the detailed handwritten report her teachers prepared is absent of any words tha t might be interpreted as negative()in describing her efforts.A number System indicates how she’s measuring up in e ach area without any mention of passing or failing.The debate over whether formal grades should be given to kids has long existed.At one level,the advantages and disadva ntages are obvious.A grade system provides a straightforward standard by which to measure how your child is progressing a t school--and how he or she is getting on compared to other children.But as writer Sue Ferguson notes,Grades can deceive. ()The aim should be”to measure learning,not simply what a student can remember on a test.”The two aren’t the same-and if you doubt that as an adult,ask yourself whether you could sit down without any preparation and still pass those high-s chool-level examinations.If you’re old enough,You’ve lived through this debate before.At one time,it was considered unfair to put children in direct competition with one another if it could be avoided.The intention behind that may have been good,but it ignored the fact that competition,and the will to come out on top,are essential components of the human condition.32.Which of the following seems to be weak on the daughter’s kindergarten report card?A.Reading.B.Vocabulary.C.Enthusiasm.D.Numbers.33.what did the teachers try to do when preparing the report card?A.Avoid using negative words.B.Describe the facts as they really were.e numbers instead of words.D.Avoid showing weak areas.34.What does the writer suggest by the underlined part in Paragraph 2?A.Most adults can pass high-school-level examinations without preparation.B.There’s no doubt that most high-school-level examinations measure learning.C.As an adult,you should not doubt your ability to pass high-school-level examinations.D.It’s difficult for most adults to pass high-school-level examinations without preparation.35.Which of the following would the writer most probably agree with?A.Schools should not give formal grades to kids.B.Schools should give formal grades to kids.C.Giving formal grades to kids has no disadvantages at a11.D.It’s unfair to put children in direct competition with one another.第二节(共5小题,每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

The mother started to cry and said，"You don't know？He passed away yesterday…" The line was quiet except for the cries of the mother．Late that night，the mother went into the boy's room and opened the CDS．She found pieces of paper with words："Hi…I think U R really cute．Do u wanna go out with me？Love，Jocelyn．"6.Who took care of the guy all his life？______A.

A CD StoreCFOR us humans，one of the greatest experiences is to taste all kinds of delicious food．But for penguins，they cannot get a taste of this happiness．That's because penguins can't actually taste the delicious flavors （味道）of their favorite food-fish!Scientists from the University of Michigan examined the genome （基因组）of five species of penguins．They found that not one can taste umami （鲜味），the flavor of meat or fish，the BBC reported．Many animals have five basic tastes：sweet，sour （酸），salty bitter （苦）and umami．But according to genetic（遗传的）data，penguins are believed to have only sour and salty tastes．These findings are surprising and puzzling．And scientists don't have a good explanation for them．But they have a few ideas．First，one of the umami genes doesn't work in cold temperatures．"It's about zero degrees when they eat cold fish，" Zhang Jianzhi，the lead scientist，told the Daily Mail，so even if the penguins had a functional（功能的）gene，it might not work when they needed it．Plus，penguins' tongues are very special which may have something to do with their lack of taste．Instead of being covered with taste buds which help to taste food，penguins' tongues are extremely spiky （钉⼦似的）．This is better for them to hold slippery （滑的）fish than tasting them．One study even showed that some types of penguins don't even have taste buds．，But penguins seem to be managing just fine．"Their behavior of swallowing food whole and their tongue structure and function suggest that penguins need no taste perception（知觉），" said Zhang．11.The study finds that ______ ．A. different penguins have their own favorite fishB. penguins have different genomes for the five tastesC. penguins can't taste the flavor of fishD. penguins don't have any of the five basic tastes12.Penguins can only taste ______ ．A. salty and sourB. sour and sweetC. sweet and saltyD. bitter and umami13.From Paragraph 5，we learn that ______ ．A. penguins' umami genes work well in cold temperaturesB. penguins only eat cold fishC. temperatures can decide the umami genes of penguinsD. the umami genes in penguins would work when needed14.Paragraph 6tells us that ______ ．A. a lack of taste is good for penguinsB. penguins' tongues are very spikyC. penguins prefer to eat slippery fishD. there are no taste buds on penguins' tongues15.All of the following decide that penguins need no taste perception EXCEPT ______ ．A. they always swallow food wholeB. their tongue structure is specialC. their tongue function is differentD. they live in cold temperaturesDMy parents give me an allowance every week．An allowance is the money I earn when I do chores or jobs around the house．There are a lot of things I want to buy with my allowance，but I have to earn it first! There are many ways to earn money．I do chores，make my bed and empty the dishwasher．I also help my parents whenever they ask．My parents let me choose how to spend my allowance，but they say I shouldn't use it up at once．That's why they taught me about budgets （预算）．A budget helps people buy things now and also save for things in the future．My mom says there are three ways to use my allowance．I can spend it，save it，or give it away．I want to do all three，so my mom and I make three jars．One is a "spend" jar，one is a "save" jar，and one is a "give" jar．Spend JarThe spend jar is my favorite! I put most of my allowance here．At the end of the month，I count up all my spending money．I use it to buy things and do fun things with my friends．Save JarSometimes，there are things I want，but I don't have enough money．That's what the save jar is for．I put some of my allowance in it．It builds up more and more each week．After a while，I have enough money to buy what I want．Give JarThe last jar is very special．It's the give jar．I donate （捐赠）the money to a charity （慈善）or another good cause．My dad says that donating money helps other people and makes our world a better place．I like putting my allowance into my three jars．It's fun to see it build up over time!

But the concept itself isn 't scientists have been exploring questions about climate change for almost 200 years.The idea of “ greenhouse gases ”g oes back to 1824, when Joseph Fourier wondered what was regulating the earth 's temperature. Fourier concluded that the atmosphere must be responsible for containing the heat absorbed from the sun and described it as a box with a glass lid: As light shines through the glass, the inside gets warmer as the lid traps the heat. As Fourier 's ideas spreto be called “the greenhouse effect ”.Scientists continued to study the greenhouse effect. Not until a Swedish chemist named Svante Arrhenius came along, did scientists understand how global warming actually works. After years of work, Arrhenius determined that the level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere did in fact have a direct effect on global temperatures.Arrhenius found that CO2, and other gases trap radiation, which warms the atmosphere. Arrhenius was the first to suspect that burning coal could contribute to the greenhouse effect. But Arrhenius welcomed the warming effect on the planet. At a lecture later that year, Arrhenius noted that creatures of a warmer earth “ might live under a milder sky and in less barren surroundings While Arrhenius ' findings won him the 1903 Nobel Prize in chemistry, scientists kept debating whether the greenhouse effect was increasing until 1950, when researchers finally began to findstrong data supporting it. By the end of the 1950s, American scientists had been sounding the alarm on the long -term consequences of climate change. Climate change research has come a long way since Fourier first described the greenhouse effect —still, maybe Arrhenius should have been more carefulof what he wished for.4.What does the underlined word “it ” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A.The climate change.B. The greenhouse effect.C. The atmosphere.D. The heat from the sun.5.When did the scientists first find evidence for the bad effect of global warming?A. In 1824.B. In 1903.C. In 1950.D. 200 years ago.6.W hat 's the author 's attitude towards Arrhenius wish?A. Optimistic.B. Negative.C. Neutral.D. Ambiguous.knowledge that the woman in Leonardo da Vinci 'ms ost seems tolook back at observers, following them with heryes no matter where they stand in the room. But this common knowledgeA new study finds that the woman in the painting is actually looking out at an angle that degrees off to the observer's right —well outside of the range that people normally believe when theythink someone is looking right at them. In other words, said the study author, Horstmann, looking at you.” This is somewhat ironic, because the entire phenomenon of a person 凝视）in 's gaz a photograph or painting seeming to follow the viewer is called the “Mona Lisa effect ” . absolutely real, Horstmann said. If a person is illustrated or photographed looking straight ahead, even people viewing the portrait from an angle will feel they are being looked at. As long as theangle of the person 's gaze is no more than about 5 degrees off to either side, the Mona Lisa effect occurs.Horstmann and his co-author were studying this effect for its application in the creation of artificial -intelligence avatars （ 虚拟头像 ） when Horstmann took a long look at the “Mona Lisa ” and realized she wasn 't looking at him. To make sure it wasn 't just him, the researchers asked 24 peop to view images of the “Mona Lisa ” on a computer screen.So why do people repeat the belief that her eyes seem to follow the viewer? Horstmann isn 't sure. It 's possibleh,e said, that people have the desire to be looked at, so they think the woman is looking straight at them. Or maybe the people who first coined the term “Mona Lisa effect ”jus t thought it was a cool name.8. What is generally believed about the woman in the painting“Mona Lisa ”?A.

The position of the ruler in the experiment will influence the viewers ' judgment.DSparrow is a fast -food chain with 200 restaurants. Some years ago, the group to which Sparrow belonged was taken over by another company. Although Sparrow showed no sign of declining, the chain was generally in an unhealthy state. With more and more fast - food concepts reaching the market, the Sparrow menu had to struggle for attention. And to make matters worse, its new owner had no plans to give it the funds it required.Sparrow failed to grow for another two years. Until a new CEO, Carl Pearson, decided to build up its market share. He did a survey, which showed that consumers who already used Sparrow restaurants were extremely positive about the chain, while customers of other fast -food chains wereunwilling to turn away from them. Sparrow had to develop a new promotional campaign.Pearson faced a battle over the future of the Sparrow brand. The chain 'osw ner now favored rebranding Sparrow as Marcy 's restaurants. Pearson resisted, arguing for an advertising campaign designed to convince customers that visits to Sparrow restaurants were fun. Such an attempt to establish a positive relationship between a company and the general public was unusual for that time. Pearson strongly believed that numbers were the key to success, rather than customers 'sp ending power. Finally, the owner accepted his idea.The campaign itself changed the traditional advertising style of the fast -food industry. The TVads of Sparrow focused on entertainment and featured original songs performed by a variety of stars. Instead of showing the superiority of a specific product, the intention was to put Sparrow in the hearts of potential customers.Pearson also made other decisions which he believed would contribute to the new Sparrow image. For example, he offered to lower the rent of any restaurants which achieved a certain increase in their turnover （营业额） .These efforts paid off, and Sparrow soon became one of the most successful fast -food chains in the regions where it operated.12.Which was one of the problems Sparrow faced before Pearson became CEO?A.The number of its customers was declining.B.Its customers found the food unhealthy.C.It was in need of financial support.D.Most of its restaurants were closed.13.For what purpose did Pearson start the advertising campaign?A. To build a good relationship with the public.B.To stress the unusual tradition of Sparrow.C.To learn about customers ' spending power.D.To meet the challenge from Marcy 's restaurants.14.What do know about the TV ads of Sparrow?A. They changed people 's views on pop stars.B.They amused the public with original songs.C.They focused on the superiority of its products.D. They influenced the eating habits of the audience.15.What was Pearson ' s achievement as a CEO?A. He managed to pay off Sparrow ' s debts.B.He made Sparrow much more competitive.C.He helped Sparrow take over a company.D.He improved the welfare of Sparrow employees.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。
