While the trip sounds exciting, it would take years and years to reach your destination.So in the future, bedtime for astronauts may be more than a few hours of regular shut eye.They would have to sleep for years.European researchers are now conducting hibernation experiments.The study may help them understand whether humans could ever sleep through the years it would take for a spaceflight to distant planets."If there was an effective technology, it could make deep space travel a reality,"said Mark Ayre of the European Space Agency last month.What seems like a science fiction is not completely unlikely.Researchers have been able to use chemicals to put living cells into a sleep like state where they don’t age.They have now moved on to the small, non hibernating mammals (哺乳动物)like rats.A major challenge is the fact that cells can be very simple systems, whereas body organs are far more complex (复杂的)."It’s like moving from a simple Apple computer to a supercomputer," said Marco Biggiogera, a hibernation researcher at Italy’s University of Pavia.Just like bears and frogs, the hibernation of human beings would cause a person’s metabolism (新陈代谢)to lower so they would need less energy.Medical research, however, is just half of a spaceflight hibernation system.There is a challenge of designing a suitable protective shelter (栖身所).Such a shelter would provide the proper environment for hibernation, such as the proper temperature.It would also have to monitor (监控)life functions and serve the physiological needs of the hibernator.According to Ayre, the six person Human Outer Planets Exploration Mission (使命)to Jupiter’s moon (木星的卫星)Callisto, could be an opportunity to use human hibernation.The mission aims to send six persons on a five year flight to Callisto, where they will spend 30 days, in 2045.5.According to the article, the hibernation research _______.A.is just an idea B.is always a science fictionC.has already finished successfully D.has made some progress6.In a hibernating state, a person needs ________.A.less sleep B.more food C.less energy D.more movement7.The first try of the hibernation technologythe six person Human Outer Planets Exploration Mission to Jupiter’s moon Callisto.A.will be B.has been planned forC.is certain to be D.may be8.What is the best title of the article?A.Hibernation study for space travel B.Welcome to our space travelC.To hibernate, to live longer D.Welcome to the Milky Way非选择题一、短文改错How I dislike acting dishonest in exams! This morning, Henry tried to 76.____ copy his answers.He whispered to me so that the teacher couldn't hear.77._______I didn’t know how to deal with it.If I do n’t show him the answers, he 78._____ might mad.Henry is my friend.I really don’t want to destroy our79.____ friendship.But showing him the answers would be something what goes 80.__ ____ against my beliefs.During the exam, I tried several ways to guard against my 81.____ __ answers so that Henry wouldn’t be able to see it.I moved myself closer 82.______to my desk, and covered my paper by my arm.After the exam, 83._______I explained Henry how I was feeling and promised to help him study 84.__before the next exam .Henry understood that but I was finally able to breathe 85. ____ again .第二节:书面表达(满分25分)今年暑假,你参加了社会实践活动,去某旅行社当业余导游。

By using humor, he makescomplex issues more accessible to readers while also inviting them to reflect on the absurdity and injustice of the world around them. The humor also adds levity to the story, allowing readers to connect with Huck’s mischievous nature and his struggles for freedom and morality.Second Passage: A Fresh Start in High School EnglishArticle:As the autumn leaves paint the skyline of Shijiazhuang, the capital city of Hebei Province, with hues of gold and red, I find myself embarking on a new journey in high school English, the first semester of Grade 10. Stepping into the classroom, filled with the excitement and anticipation of a fresh start, I am greeted by a diverse group of classmates, each with their unique stories and dreams.Our English teacher, Mrs. Li, has a way of making the language come alive. She doesn’t just teach us grammar rules and vocabulary lists; she immerses us in the rich tapestry of English literature, from Shakespeare’s timeless tragedies to modern-day short stories that resonate with our teenage experiences. The class is a melting pot of cultures, where we share our perspectives on the texts, fostering a deeper understanding and appreciation for the language and its diverse expressions.One particular lesson stands out. We were re ading an excerpt from “To Kill a Mockingbird” by Harper Lee, discussing the themes of prejudice, justice, and the resilience of the human spirit. Mrs. Li encouraged us to think critically, asking probing questions that challenged our preconceptions andbroadened our horizons. Through this engaging discussion, I realized that learning English wasn’t just about memorizing words and phrases; it was about understanding the world through the lens of another language and culture.Outside of the classroom, we engage in various activities that reinforce our language skills. From participating in English debate clubs to volunteering at local charities, where we practice our communication skills by interacting with native speakers, every experience is a stepping stone towards fluency.This semester has been a whirlwind of new experiences and challenges, but I am grateful for every moment. I have grown not only as an English learner but also as a person, gaining confidence, empathy, and a love for the language that transcends borders.Questions:1.What is the main topic of the passage?Answer: The main topic of the passage is the author’s fresh start in high school English, specifically the first semester of Grade 10 inShijiazhuang, Hebei Province.2.How does Mrs. Li make English learning more engaging for the students?Answer: Mrs. Li makes English learning more engaging by immersing students in English literature, fostering discussions that encourage critical thinking, and connecting the language to real-world experiencesand cultures.3.What is the significance of the excerpt from “To Kill a Mockingbird”in the class discussion?Answer: The excerpt from “To Kill a Mockingbird” was significant in the class discussion as it provided a platform to explore themes of prejudice, j ustice, and resilience, challenging students’ preconceptions and broadening their horizons.4.How do extracurricular activities contribute to the students’ Englishlanguage development?Answer: Extracurricular activities such as participating in English debate clubs and volunteering at local charities contribute to the students’ English language development by providing opportunities to practice communication skills in real-life situations with native speakers, thus reinforcing their language proficiency.Third Question: Reading Comprehension - Section OnePassage:Title: Adapting to High School Life: A Freshman’s JourneyAs a freshman stepping into Shijiazhuang High School, Hebei Province, for the first semester of Grade 11, I couldn’t help but feel a mix of excitement and anxiety. The prospect of learning a new language at an advanced level, English in this case, filled me with both anticipation and trepidation. However, the journey so far has been nothing short of transformative, teaching me valuable lessons about resilience, time management, and the joyof exploration.The first few weeks were undoubtedly challenging. The pace of English classes was faster than I had ever experienced, and the textbooks seemed daunting with their dense vocabulary and complex grammatical structures. But with the encouragement of my teachers and the camaraderie of my classmates, I gradually found my footing.One of the most significant adjustments was learning to balance my studies with extracurricular activities. I joined the s chool’s debate club, which not only honed my language skills but also taught me the art of persuasive communication. Additionally, participating in English literature clubs allowed me to delve deeper into the world of literature, expanding my horizons and fostering a love for the language.Overcoming language barriers was another crucial aspect of my journey. Initially, I struggled with speaking confidently and comprehending native speakers’ accents. Regular practice with my peers and teachers, along with watching English movies and listening to podcasts, significantly improved my listening and speaking abilities.Moreover, I discovered the power of setting goals and staying organized. Creating a study schedule and breaking down complex tasks into manageable chunks helped me stay focused and motivated. This approach not only benefited my English studies but also improved my performance in other subjects.In retrospect, this semester has been a rollercoaster ride filled with ups and downs. But through it all, I have learned that adapting to new challenges is a crucial part of personal growth. I am now more confident in my English abilities and have a renewed sense of purpose in my academic journey.

For high school students embarking on their English learning journey in Grade 10’s first semester in Shijiazhuang, Hebei Province, exploring the wonders of the ocean through literature is not just an academic pursuit but a thrilling adventure.Imagine diving into a world where colorful coral reefs stretch as far as the eye can see, forming intricate underwater landscapes that support a diverse array of marine life.

The first gallery I entered showcased the Stone Age, where crude tools made from stone and bone told tales of our ancestors’ struggle for survival. The rough-hewn axes and sharpened flint knives ser ved as a stark reminder of humanity’s early ingenuity andresilience.Moving on, I found myself amidst the grandeur of ancient Egypt. The life-size statues of pharaohs, with their enigmatic smiles and regal poses, stood guard over the room. The intricate hieroglyphics adorning the walls spoke of a civilization that had mastered the art of writing thousands of years ago.Next up was the Mesopotamia section, where the cuneiform tablets captured my imagination. These ancient clay tablets, inscribed with wedge-shaped impressions, were the earliest forms of written communication in the region. They provided invaluable insights into the daily lives, beliefs, and social structures of the Sumerians and Akkadians.The Chinese Dynasties gallery, however, was the highlight of my visit. Walking through the display of exquisite jade carvings, delicate porcelain vases, and imposing bronze vessels, I couldn’t help but marvel at the intricate craftsmanship and artistic flair of our ancestors. Each piece was a testament to the rich cultural heritage of China, spanning from the Neolithic Age to the Qing Dynasty.Finally, the museum concluded with a thought-provoking exhibition on the interconnectedness of civilizations. Displaying artifacts from across the globe, it underscored the fact that despite our differences, humans have always shared a common quest for knowledge, beauty, and progress.

As I walked through the gates of our school, Shijiazhuang No.1 High School, the sprawling campus and towering buildings filled me with a sense of awe. I was about to embark ona new journey, where English would play a pivotal role, not just as a subjectbut as a tool to explore the world.My first English class was particularly memorable. Mrs. Li, our teacher, had a way of making even the most complex grammar rules seem simple. She encouraged us to speak up and not be afraid of making mistakes. Her first lesson focused on “making a fresh start” in high sch ool, emphasizing the importance of setting goals and developing good study habits.One activity that stood out was the “Personal Vision Board” exercise. We were asked to create a visual representation of our aspirations for the year,using images and words that inspired us. I remember gluing a picture of an open book with the words “Fluent in English” written across it. It was a reminder that I wanted to improve my language skills significantly. As the semester progressed, I found myself enjoying English more and more. The weekly debates and discussions in class sparked my curiosity and helped me broaden my horizons. I also joined the school’s English Club, where we practiced speaking and writing in English, organized cultural exchanges, and even put on a play in English.However, it wasn’t all smooth sailing. There were moments when the workload seemed overwhelming, and I struggled to keep up with the pace. But with Mrs. Li’s guidance and the support of my classmates, I learned to manage my time effectively and tackle challenges head-on.Now, as I look back at my first semester in high school, I realize that it was a crucial time of growth and self-discovery. English wasn’t just a subject; it became a bridge that connected me to new ideas, people, and opportunities.Cloze Test:Fill in the blanks with the most suitable words or phrases from the given options.1.Starting my first semester of high school in Shijiazhuang, Hebei Province, was ablend of________and anxiety.A. happinessB. excitementC. sadnessD. boredom2.Walking through the gates of Shijiazhuang No.1 High School, I was________by thevast campus and towering buildings.A. terrifiedB. amusedC. struckD. fascinated3.Mrs.Li, our English teacher, had a unique way of simplifying even themost________grammar rules.A. intricateB. straightforwardC. familiarD. outdated4.She motivated us to speak up and not let fear of________hold us back.A. successB. failureC. challengesD. opportunities5.The “Personal Vision Board” exercise aimed to help us visualize our aspirations forthe year, using________that inspired us.A. colorsB. soundsC. images and wordsD. scentsAnswers and Explanations:1.B. excitementThe sentence mentions a “mixture of excitement and nervousness,”indicating that excitement is one of the emotions felt.2.D. fascinatedThe vast campus and towering buildings filled the narrator with awe, suggesting fascination.3.A. intricateThe word “complex” in the sentence is paralleled by “intricate,” which means complicated or detailed.4.B. failureThe sentence says not to be afraid of making mistakes, which implies fear of failure.5.C. images and wordsThe exercise specifically asks for a visual representation using images and words, as stated in the passage.六、语言运用第二节语法填空(15分)Title: A Journey to the PastOnce upon a time, in a small village nestled in the heart of a lush forest,there lived a young girl named Li Hua. She was fascinated by the stories her grandfather told about the village’s rich history, particularly ab out an ancient temple hidden deep within the woods. 1a curious and adventurous soul, Li Hua decided to embark on a journey to find this temple.2the early morning light, Li Hua set off, armed with nothing but her courage and a small map her grandfather had drawn for her. The forest was alive with the sounds of birds chirping and the rustling of leaves in the breeze. As she walked, Li Hua couldn’t help but feel a sense of 3 (excite) growing within her.Suddenly, a fork in the path appeared before her. The left path seemed overgrown and 4(bare), while the right one led to a clearing where she could see a faint glow in the distance. Without hesitation, Li Hua chose the right path, her heart pounding with 5 (anxious).As she approached the clearing, the glow became brighter, revealing the ancient temple she had been searching for. The temple was surrounded by tall trees, and its walls were covered in intricate carvings telling tales of 6(hero) from long ago.

She chose to have it.The day before the surgery I was off school, and my mom planned the best day of my life, everything I loved at seven and everything that would put a smile on my face. The day began with her waking me up saying, “Kate, I have a surprise for you. Come and see.”The surprise was a doll I had wanted for the longest time. Throughout theday, she told me everything that she thought I would need to know to grow up and be a good person; she told meto be the best I could be and that I would always make her proud. We had a picnic in the park, and it was so cold that we moved to the car. The day was filled with laughter. For the first time in a long time I could see she was really happy. I would never forget her smile, or the way her eyes shone as if we were the same age. It was the best day of my life, and I will never forget the conversations we shared.My mother managed to live through the surgery. Now when I look back, I realize that the best day of my life could be her last and this could be the last day I would remember with her, the last one we shared.

You can’t see them, but they are on your desk, on your computer, and even in the air!Like people, germs move around the world. They fly with us on planes. When food, clothes, and other things travel around the world, germs travel, too. Some germs are safe, but some are dangerous. Germs cause illnesses like colds and the flu.Warmer Weather Brings GermsThe world’s weather is changing. Cooler countries are getting warmer, so insects from hot countries can move there. Some of these insects, like mosquitoes, carry dangerous germs. These germs cause headaches, fever, and can even kill people.Under Your SkinYour skin protects you from germs. It stops some germs, but not all. They can enter your body when you eat, or when you have a cut. Germs are on your hands, too. They enter your body when you touch your eyes, nose, or mouth.Fighting GermsYour immune system(免疫系统) protects you, too. When germs get inside your body, your immune system finds and kills them. Special cells(细胞) move around your body and fight germs. They help you stay healthy. Other cells make antibodies. Antibodies help your body find and stop germs.What can you do to fight germs? You should wash your hands with soap and water. Soap kills many germs, and water washes them away.36. According to the text, insects ______.A. kill germsB. carry germsC. protect germsD. love germs37.

If your story is chosen by the editor, we can read it .A. in a magazineB. in a storybookC. on China Daily’s websiteD. in the newspaper named China DailyDHave you had this experience? You are watching a movie. A man is shooting on the screen. The picture is so real that you think he is shooting at you. Or a car is speeding on the screen and at one point you are afraid that it will hit you.Three-dimensional(3D) movies use special technology to make pictures seem more real and exciting than two-dimensional ones. The popular movie Avatar(《阿凡达》) this year uses 3D technology.So far we can only see 3D movies in the cinema with a special screen and projector(放映机). But soon, we will be able to watch them in our living rooms. The Japanese company Sony told reporters that it planned to bring 3D televisions to homes in the near future. The company is also hoping to make other products with 3D, like laptops and PS3. “The 3D train is on the track, and we are ready to drive it home,”said Sony President. 3D movies and TV programmes are fun to watch, but do you know how they are made? It is much easier to understand if we do an experiment.Hold one of your fingers up at arms length and close one eye. Then try closingthe other eye. As you switch(切换) between open eyes, you should see your finger “jumping”left and right against the background.This happens because our two eyes are about 4cm away from each other. The separation(分开) causes each eye to see the world from a different angle. The brain puts these two views together. What you see becomes three-dimensional.3D movies are made using two video cameras at the same time, which creates two different images. When the movie plays in a cinema, two projectors put the two images on the screen. With a pair of 3D glasses, the two images are separated and each image only enters one eye. Your brain puts the two pictures back together, and the pictures on the screen become three-dimensional.46. What does the underlined sentence in the fourth paragraph mean?A. They’ve got a train to take 3D movies back home.B. They are ready to bring 3D technology to homes.C. They have no more work to do on 3D technology.D. They are not sure about the future of 3D movies..47. According to the passage, 3D movies ________.A. use advanced technology (高科技) to make special sound effects.B. are less real than common movies, but more excitingC. can only be seen in the cinema at the momentD. will take the place of 2D movies in the near future.48. From the passage, we know that 3D technology ________.A. works in similar way of how our eyes see things.B. is too expensive to be used in common homesC. uses special video cameras and light effectsD. can be easy to experiment with49. How many video cameras are needed when making a 3D movie?A. One.B. Two.C. Three.D. Four.50. The passage is mainly about ________.A. how 3D movies will develop in the futureB. what makes 3D movies so enjoyableC. how 3D technology works and its futureD. what 3D technology needs and its future五 . 写作某英语网站进行了一次中学生健康情况调查,发现很多中学生的健康状况令人担忧。

plants are grown.for the summer gardens alone.Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden,Cape Town,South AfricaKirstenbosch National Botanical Garden is one of a handful of botanic gardens to grow only native plants.Some of the most popular varieties include the king protea,which produces enormous flowers between autumn and summer,and the rare silver tree,a silky-leaved plant,which experts believe could become extinct in the next 50 years.Denver Botanic Gardens,Colorado,USOnce native to South Africa,these oddly-named flowers are famously drought-hardy,making them perfect for this part of North America.This garden is one of the few to focus on draught-tolerant plants from Colorado and the grasslands of Africa,Mongolia and Argentina.In fact,Colorado is home to nine species of endangered plant,and several can be found here.Arctic-Alpine Botanic Garden,Tromso,NorwayVisit the world's northernmost·botanical garden and you'll find a breathtaking collection of plants from the world's polar

approval,he learns to love himself and will be successful in his own way.Several weeks ago,I was doing homework with my son in the third grade and he kept standing up from his chair.I kept asking him to sit down,telling him that he would concentrate better.He sat but seconds later,as if he didn't even notice he was doing it,he got up again.I was getting angry,but then it hit me:I started noticing his answers-were much quicker and right when he stood up.Could he concentrate better while standing up?This made me start questioning myself and what I had been raised to believe.I grew up to believe that a quiet child was more likely to succeed.This child would have.the ability to study hard,get good grades and become someone important in life.Kids that were active and loud would only be losers.Now people perhaps come to realize that their kids are born with their own sets of DNA,and all they can do is loving and accepting them.As parents,throughout their growing years and beyond that,we need to guide them and help them find their way.I have stopped asking my son to sit down and concentrate.Clearly,he is concentrating,just in his own way and not mine.We need to accept our kids,and their ways of doing things.There is nothing sweeter than seeing our children being themselves.It makes us happy and that's just the way I want my kids to live a happy life.4.The author tried to keep his son seated so that _______.A.he could pay more attention to his studyB.he could keep silent in the roomC.he could finish his homework on timeD.he couldn't disturb the author5.Encouraged by the example of his son,the author began to doubt _______.A.the importance of parents B.the love between kids and their parentsC.the good grades of some kids D.the old education concepts6.What does the author think of teaching children?A.Encouragement is important.B.Children shouldn't be punished.C.Children can't be taught in the same way.D.Children should be taught to behave themselves.7.In the opinion of the author,children should _______.A.have no freedom B.have their own styleC.learn from their friends D.be friendly to their parentsCRichard is a very a successful businessman.It is common for him to work hard with a non-stop.He wasn't aware that he might wear himself out or die an early death until he overslept one morning,which was a sort of alarm.And then what happened?He had a week's leave during which time he read novels,listened to music and walked with his wife on a beach,which has enabled Richard to return to work again.In our modern life,we have lost the rhythm between action and rest.Amazingly,within this world there is a universal but silly saying:“I am so busy.”We say this to one another as if our tireless efforts,were a talent by nature and an ability to successfully deal with stress.The busier we are,the more important we seem to ourselves and,we imagine,to others.To be unavailable to our friends and family,and to be unable to find time to relax - this has become the model of a successful life.Because we do not rest,we lose our way.We miss the guide telling us where to go,the food providing uswith strength,the quiet giving us wisdom.How have we allowed this to happen?I believe it is this:we have forgotten the Sabbath,the day of the week - for followers of some religions - for rest and praying.It is a day when we are not supposed to work,a time when we devote ourselves to enjoying and celebrating what is beautiful.It is a good time to bless our children and loved ones,give thanks,share meals,walk and sleep.It is a time for us to take a rest,to put our work aside,trusting that there are larger forces at work taking care of the world.Rest is a spiritual and biological need;however,in our strong ambition to be successful and care for our many responsibilities,we may feel terribly guilty when we take time to rest.The Sabbath gives us permission to stop work.In fact,“Remember the Sabbath” is more than simply permission to.rest;it is a rule to obey and a principle to follow.8.What's the function of the paragraph 1?A.To tell us that Richard lives a healthy lifeB.To give us a brief introduction of RichardC.To bring up the topic of the passage.D.To tell Richard is a successful businessman.9.The “alarm” in the first paragraph refers to “ _______”.A.a signal of stress B.a warning of dangerC.a sign of age D.a spread of disease10.According to the passage during the Sabbath,what we should do except _______.A.Enjoying delicious meal.B.Taking a good break.C.Praying for our family.D.Only working for two hours.11.What is the main idea of this passage?A.We should balance work with rest.B.The Sabbath gives us permission to rest.C.It is silly for anyone to say “I am busy”.D.We should be available to our family and friends.DResearchers have developed a wearable device(设备).It is stretchy(有弹性的)enough that you can wear it like a ring,a bracelet or any other accessory that touches your skin.It also changes the body's temperature into electricity,about 1 volt of energy for every square centimeter of skin space - less voltage per area than what most existing batteries provide but still enough to power electronics like watches or fitness trackers.It can heal itself when damaged and is fully recyclable,making it a cleaner alternative(替代品)to traditional electronics.The innovation(创新)begins with a base made out of a stretchy material called polyamine.The scientists then stick a series of thin heating chips into that base,connecting them all with liquid metal wires.The final product looks like a Cross between a plastic watch and a minicomputer motherboard or maybe a diamond ring.Just pretend that you're out for a jog.As you exercise,your body heats up,and that heat will radiate out to the cool air around you.The device catches that flow of energy instead of letting it go to waste.A person taking a quick walk could use a device the size of a typical sports wristband to produce about 5 volts of electricity,which is more than what many watch batteries can hold.The new devices are as stretchy as biological tissue.If your device tears,for example,you can put together the broken ends,and they'll seal back up in just a few minutes.Researchers are trying to make their devices as cheap and reliable as possible,while also having as close to zero effect on the environment as possible.While there are still problems to work out in the design,they think that the devices could appear on the market in a few years.12.Which of the following statements is false about the device?A.It can repair itself.B.It can be recycled.C.It can evaluate itself.D.It can transform energy.13.How can a wearer make the device produce electricity?A.By shaking it fast.B.By leaving it in the cool air.C.By connecting it with watch batteries.D.By giving out heat.14.What do the researchers think about the devices?A.They will have a bright future.B.They will be expensive.C.They can not be damaged by force.D.They are completely environment-friendly.15.What is the best title for the text?A.An Innovation in wearable DevicesB.A Great Exercise CompanionC.A New Function of Traditional ElectronicsD.A Biological Battery in the Human Body第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Smart designers are behind it, subtly tempting you to walk through each aisle (过道) and fill your trolley (手推车) without even realizing it.Grocery store design is a carefully crafted art from both psychological and marketing standpoints, according to Reeves Connelly, who studied architectural design at the Pratt Institute. He explained there is a specific reason why fruit and vegetables are often located at the front of the store, “You'll grab the fruits and vegetables first and then hopefully feel less guilty about buying junk food later on.” Meanwhile, essential items such as milk and eggs are placed at the back of the store to ensure customers walk through other aisles with many unhealthy options like snacks and sodas, potentially increasing the possibilities of non- essential buying.There's also a reason why you often feel lost in local supermarkets. Shockingly, they move things around. Reeves explained, “They are very much aware that these strategies become less effective after you visit the store a few times and get a better sense of where everything is, so they'll regularly move the products to different aisles to confuse you. The practice is not limited to a specific store but is used across various retail chains.”“Their little tricks always work on me,” one regular shopper admits. “I walk in to get three things and end up spending $300; that's why I hate grocery shopping,” he said. On the other hand, some shoppers are proud to declare they have never fallen into the trap. “That's why I always keep a shopping list on me,” another shopper shared. “I've started having my groceries delivered. If I have to go to the store, I never grab a trolley. If I can't carry it, I'm not buying it,” he added.4. What is the purpose of the supermarket layout?A. To encourage healthy eating.B. To save consumers' shopping time.C. To increase unnecessary buying.D. To provide multiple goods for choice.5. What does the underlined word “practice” in paragraph 3 refer to?A. Distributing junk food in different areas.B. Putting milk and eggs at the back of the store.C. Reordering products in supermarkets regularly.D. Placing fruit and vegetables at the front of the store.6. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. Shopping baskets are better than heavy trollies.B. Most shoppers are trapped in marketing tricks.C. Grocery delivery can help improve supermarket sales.D. Taking a shopping list can be a smart move for non- essential buying.7. Where is this text most likely from?A. A psychology report.B. A business magazine.C. A research paper.D. A shopping guide.CYou are given many opportunities in life to choose to be a victim or creator. When you choose to be a victim, the world is a cold and difficult place. “They” did things to you which caused all of your pain and suffering. “They” are wrong and bad, and life is terrible as long as “they” are around. Or you may blame yourself for all your problems, thus internalizing (内化) your victimization (受害) . The truth is, your life is likely to stay that way aslong as you feel a need to blame yourself or others.Those who choose to be creators look at life quite differently. They know there are individuals who might like to control their lives, but they don't let this get in the way. They know they have their weaknesses, yet they don't blame themselves when they fail. Whatever happens, they have choice in the matter. They believe their dance with each sacred (神圣的) moment of life is a gift and that storms are a natural part of life which can bring the rain needed for emotional and spiritual growth.Victims and creators live in the same physical world and deal with many of the same physical realities, yet their experience of life is worlds apart. Victims relish (沉溺) in anger, guilt, and other emotions that cause others—and even themselves—to feel like victims, too. Creators consciously choose love, inspiration, and other qualities which inspire not only themselves, but all around them. Both victims and creators always have choice to determine the direction of their lives.In reality, all of us play the victim or the creator at various points in our lives. One person, on losing a job or a special relationship, may feel as if it is the end of the world and sink into terrible suffering for months, years, or even a lifetime. Another with the same experience may choose to first experience the grief, then accept the loss and soon move on to be a powerful creative force in his life.In every moment and every circumstance, you can choose to have a fuller, richer life by setting a clear intention to transform the victim within, and by inviting into your life the powerful creator that you are.8. In what way is a creator different from a victim?A. A creator is given more challenges.B. Failure seldom comes to a creator.C. Storms are beneficial in a creator's eyes.D. A victim hardly blames others for their own faults.9. When people choose to think like a creator, what will happen?A. They seldom make careless mistakes.B. The world seems a cold and difficult place.C. Life is blessed with fewer opportunities than expected.D. They don't care what happens to them but think positively.10. Which of the following can be described as a creator's act?A. Tim failed his exam and thought he would never pass it.B. Sam lost his job and abandoned himself to drinking for months.C. J. K. Rowling was refused by a publisher and yet went on writing.D. Jessica broke up with her husband and chose to give up her own life.11. Which of the following can be the best title for this text?A. Benefits of Being a CreatorB. Creators: Act Now or NeverC. Creator or Victim: Up to YouD. Ways to Transform a Victim into a CreatorDA team of researchers at ETH Zurich has the perfect long- lasting solution to our fog problem. They have developed a very thin and gold- based transparent coating (涂层) that can convert sunlight into heat, which can be applied to glass and other surfaces to prevent them from fogging.The special coating is developed using titanium oxide and gold particles. It selectively absorbs infraredradiation (红外线辐射) from the sunlight and creates a heating effect that is powerful enough to keep fog away from the surface of an object. The coating basically uses heat to stop fogging. The coating absorbs a large part of the infrared radiation, which causes it to heat up—by up to 8℃.Previously, products like anti- fogging sprays create a very thin film of water on the surface to remove fog. The problem with such surfaces is pollution. Along with water, the sprays also attract dirt, dust, oil, and various other dirty substances, and just a little dirt on the surface makes it useless. However, the new coating repels (排斥) water. Furthermore, the coating is significantly thinner, which makes it more transparent as well as flexible. It is heated passively and requires, during daytime, no additional energy source.Gold might be expensive, but the researchers stress that their coating requires so little that the material costs remain low. Their coating is produced with standardized and readily scalable methods, all cost- effectively. However, although this product can work at very low levels of solar irradiation, it does rely on a certain amount of light.The researchers will develop the coating further for other applications. In the process, they will examine whether other metals work just as well as gold. There is no need to fear, however, this would cause a car or a building to heat up more in the summer. The researchers have already filed a patent (专利) . Hopefully, this groundbreaking product will soon be available on the market.12. How does the new coating work to remove fog?A. By reflecting part of sunlight selectively.B. By keeping cool air away from the object.C. By creating a thin film of water on the surface.D. By absorbing infrared radiation to heat the coating.13. Why does the author mention previous anti- fogging products?A. To stress the advantages of the new coating.B. To introduce the inspiration behind the new coating.C. To prove the difficulty of creating anti- fogging products.D. To explain the reason for the anti- fogging coating being popular.14. What is the limitation of the new coating?A. It is considerably expensive.B. It depends on sunlight to work.C. It takes too much time to produce.D. It is difficult to clean and maintain.15. What do the researchers plan to do next?A. Apply for a patent for the invention.B. Develop the product for more practical uses.C. Explore the environmental impact of the coating.D. Seek a cheaper material as an alternative to gold.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。

They were 16 him names and even pushed him to the ground and kicked dirt in his face. 17 I saw that, I walked over to the group.I stepped 18 them and the smaller boy, and asked them politely what this boy had done worthy of19 they were doing to him. One of the boys replied, “He’s weird.” At that, I asked one of the boys if he thought his friend was weird, and the 20 was “No.” So, I asked another boy what the word “weird”21 , and he said, “Different.” That was my cue(暗示). I told them that everyone is 22 , and that they all looked just as different to the other boy as he did to them. They all stood 23 for a moment, and then the most amazing thing happened. One of the boys helped the small boy off the ground and then said sorry to him. He 24 to let him play with them.I thanked the boy for being so 25 .

The doctors told us my mom might be saved with surgery(手术). But it could also kill her. She chose to have it.The day before the surgery I was off school, and my mom planned the best day of my life, everything I loved at seven and everything that would put a smile on my face. The day began with her waking me up saying, “Kate, I have a surprise for you. Come and see.” The surprise was a doll I had wanted for the longest time. Throughout theday, she told me everything that she thought I would need to know to grow up and be a good person; she told me to be the best I could be and that I would always make her proud. We had a picnic in the park, and it was so cold that we moved to the car. The day was filled with laughter. For the first time in a long time I could see she was really happy. I would never forget her smile, or the way her eyes shone as if we were the same age. It was the best day of my life, and I will never forget the conversations we shared.My mother managed to live through the surgery. Now when I look back, I realize that the best day of my life could be her last and this could be the last day I would remember with her, the last one we shared.

You can’t see them, but they are on your desk, on your computer, and even in the air!Like people, germs move around the world. They fly with us on planes. When food, clothes, and other things travel around the world, germs travel, too. Some germs are safe, but some are dangerous. Germs cause illnesses like colds and the flu.Warmer Weather Brings GermsThe world’s weather is changing. Cooler countries are getting warmer, so insects from hot countries can move there. Some of these insects, like mosquitoes, carry dangerous germs. These germs cause headaches, fever, and can even kill people.Under Your SkinYour skin protects you from germs. It stops some germs, but not all. They can enter your body when you eat, or when you have a cut. Germs are on your hands, too. They enter your body when you touch your eyes, nose, or mouth.Fighting GermsYour immune system(免疫系统) protects you, too. When germs get inside your body, your immune system finds and kills them. Special cells(细胞) move around your body and fight germs. They help you stay healthy. Other cells make antibodies. Antibodies help your body find and stop germs.What can you do to fight germs? You should wash your hands with soap and water. Soap kills many germs, and water washes them away.36. According to the text, insects ______.A. kill germsB. carry germsC. protect germsD. love germs37.

If your story is chosen by the editor, we can read it .A. in a magazineB. in a storybookC. on China Daily’s websiteD. in the newspaper named China DailyDHave you had this experience? You are watching a movie. A man is shooting on the screen. The picture is so real that you think he is shooting at you. Or a car is speeding on the screen and at one point you are afraid that it will hit you.Three-dimensional(3D) movies use special technology to make pictures seem more real and exciting than two-dimensional ones. The popular movie Avatar(《阿凡达》) this year uses 3D technology.So far we can only see 3D movies in the cinema with a special screen and projector(放映机). But soon, we will be able to watch them in our living rooms. The Japanese company Sony told reporters that it planned to bring 3D televisions to homes in the near future. The company is also hoping to make other products with 3D, like laptops and PS3. “The 3D train is on the track, and we are ready to drive it home,” said Sony President. 3D movies and TV programmes are fun to watch, but do you know how they are made? It is much easier to understand if we do an experiment.Hold one of your fingers up at arms length and close one eye. Then try closing the other eye. As you switch(切换) between open eyes, you should see your finger “jumping” left and right against the background. This happens because our two eyes are about 4cm away from each other. The separation(分开) causes each eye to see the world from a different angle. The brain puts these two views together. What you see becomes three-dimensional.3D movies are made using two video cameras at the same time, which creates two different images. When the movie plays in a cinema, two projectors put the two images on the screen. With a pair of 3D glasses, the two images are separated and each image only enters one eye. Your brain puts the two pictures back together, and the pictures on the screen become three-dimensional.46. What does the underlined sentence in the fourth paragraph mean?A. They’ve got a train to take 3D movies back home.B. They are ready to bring 3D technology to homes.C. They have no more work to do on 3D technology.D.
