Teens and young adults may feel forced to smoke,or drink alcohol,which might encourage criminal behavior.Mature adults may sometimes feel pressured to cover up illegal activity at the company where they work,or end up in debt because they are unable to hold back the desire to buy a house or car that they can’t afford in an effort to keep up with the peers.However,peer pressure is not always negative.A student whose friends are good at academics may be urged to work harder and get good grades.Players on a sports team may feel driven to play harder in order to help the team win.This type of influence can also get a friend off smoking,or to help an adult take up a good habit or drop a bad one.Although peer pressure is sometimes quite obvious,it can also be so subtle that a person may not even notice that it is affecting his or her behavior.For this reason,when making important decisions,simply going with an instinct is risky.Instead,people should seriously consider why they feel drawn to taking a particular action,or it is simply because everyone else is doing the same thing.4.What does the underlined word“instinct”in paragraph2probably mean?A.A natural tendency.B.An acquired ability.C.A popular idea.D.An obvious mistake.5.What is paragraph4mainly about?A.Potential causes of peer pressure.B.Possible positive effects of peer pressure.C.Negative consequences of peer pressure.D.Tips for coping with peer pressure.6.What is the author’s suggestion when making a decision?A.Simply go with an instinct.B.Ask for advice from adults.C.Listen to the inner motivation.D.Follow in the footsteps of others.7.What is the author’s attitude to peer pressure?A.Objective.B.Ambiguous.C.Critical.D.Indifferent.CThe worst outbreak of desert locusts(蝗虫)in decades is presently underway in the Horn of Africa.It is the biggest of its kind in25years for Ethiopia and Somalia–and the worst Kenya has seen for70years.What we are seeing in East Africa today is unlike anything we’ve seen in a very long time.Its destructive potential is enormous,and it’s taking place in a region where farmers need every gram of food to feed themselves and their families.Most of the countries hardest hit are those where millions of people are already vulnerable(脆弱的)or in serious humanitarian need,as they endure the impact of violence,drought,and floods.We have acted quickly to respond to this outbreak.The primary method of battling locusts is the aerial spraying of pesticides(杀虫剂).FAO’s“Locust Watch”service explains that“although giant nets,flamethrowers,lasers,and huge vacuums have been proposed in the past,these are not in use for locust control.People and birds often eat locusts but usually not enough to significantly reduce population levels over large areas.”The UN’s Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs has released$10million from its Central Emergency Relief Fund to fund a huge scale-up in aerial operations to manage the outbreak.But the window to contain this crisis is closing fast.We only have until the beginning of March to bring this infestation under control as that is when the rain and planting season begins.If left unchecked–and with expected additional rains–locust numbers in East Africa could increase500 times by June.We must act now to avoid a full-blown catastrophe.And we will.At the same time,we need to pay attention to a bigger picture.This is not the first time the Greater Horn of Africa has seen locust outbreak approach this scale,but the current situation is the worst in decades.This is linked to climate change.Warmer seas mean more tropical storms,generating the perfect breeding conditions for locusts.8.What is implied in paragraph2?A.People in East Africa are suffering drought.B.People in East Africa are going through floods.C.The locust outbreak will cause crop failure.D.The locust outbreak is worsening locals’life.9.What can we learn from the last paragraph?A.We need a bigger picture to study the disaster.B.It is the second outbreak of locusts in East Africa.C.It is the largest outbreak of locusts ever in history.D.The outbreak of locusts is fueled by global warming.10.What is the purpose of the text?A.To analyse and compare.B.To inform and call for.C.To argue and discuss.D.To introduce and assess.11.Where does the text probably come from?A.A guidebook.B.A health magazine.C.A news report.D.A chemistry paper.DScientists say they have developed a system that uses machine learning to predict when and where lightning will strike.Researchers report the system is able to predict lightning strikes up to 30minutes before they happen within a30-kilometer area.Lightning is a strong burst of electricity in the atmosphere.Since it carries an extremely powerful electrical charge,it can be destructive and deadly.European researchers have estimated that between6,000and24,000people are killed by lightning worldwide each year.For this reason, climate scientists have long sought to develop methods to predict lightning.The system tested in the experiments uses a combination of data from weather stations and machine learning methods.The researchers developed a prediction model that was trained to recognize weather conditions that were likely to cause lightning.The model was created with data collected over a12-year period from12Swiss weather stations in cities and mountain areas.The data,related to four main surface conditions:air pressure, air temperature,relative humidity and wind speed,was placed into a unique machine learning algorithm(算法),which compared it to records of lightning strikes.Researchers say the algorithm was then able to learn the conditions under which lightning happens.The researchers test-ran the system several times.They found that the system made predictions that proved correct almost80percent of the time.“It can now be used anywhere,”the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology said in a statement.The researchers plan to keep developing the technology in partnership with a European effort that aims to create a lightning protection program.The effort is called the European Laser Lightning Rod project.Scientists working on the project are experimenting with a laser technology that could someday control lightning activity,transferring lightning charges from clouds to the ground.They hope that such technology can one day be used as protection against lightning strikes.Possible uses could be at stations,airports or places where large crowds gather.12.Why was the system developed?A.To meet kids’curiosity about lightning.B.To show the power of lightning.C.To keep track of lightning deaths.D.To protect people from lightning.13.What is special about the system?A.It was based on a number of samples worldwide.B.It adopted a different machine learning algorithmC.It used an effective method of collecting data.D.It required low cost of predicting lightning.14.What will the researchers do next with the laser technology?A.Monitor lightning activity.B.Prevent the occurrence of lightning.C.Direct energy from lightning.D.Generate electricity with lightning.15.What can be a suitable title for the text?A.A System of Controlling LightningB.A Method of Forecasting LightningC.A Theory of Employing LightningD.A Model of Creating Lightning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。

It was 1991 and my mother had left behind everything she knew- family, friends and career.Yet within two years, my parents3 marriage had broken down. After one particularly unpleasant fight, my mother left my father, taking me with her. With no family or friends, and in a country where she couldn't even communicate with people, she took me to Chinatown, the only area of Sydney she was familiar with. That night she laid me on a bench in Dixon Street, packing suitcases around us for security (安全) I will never forget the despair in her face at that time.At around 4 am, a group of four young Chinese men noisily exited a club nearby. I remember them falling silent as they saw us. They approached and asked my mother why she was sleeping on the street with such a young child. My mother burst into tears as she told them our story-Without hesitating, they warmed me up, took our suitcases, and drove us to their students＇housing.In the weeks that followed, the men looked after us with a youthful enthusiasm. Being poorstudents living on their own for the first time, they simply knew how to cook in a stupid way.However, they insisted that a child should have homemade meals. They quickly adjusted theirlives around us, buying fresh food, cooking, teasing me to make me laugh, and advising mymother on how to sort out her life.Eventually, my mother reconciled (和解) with my father and we moved back in with him,although they continued to split and make up several times.Gradually we lost touch with the men as we all moved on. But at every milestone of myLife-graduations, entering university, getting a good job- I never forget that all of this was madepossible because 22 years ago, a group of complete strangers took us in and shared everythingthey had to save us from life on the street.4.

Saint Mark'sSquare is often flooded. Venice' s waterways require repairs. But, by far, the biggest problem isthe rapidly growing number of visitors to the city.So city officials have decided to require all visitors to pay a fee to enter Venice. The moneywill help to pay for cleaning and other services that help to keep the city beautiful.Venice's Mayor Luigi Brugnaro explained the decision to international media during a visit toRome last week. “Veni ce is a wonder of the world and only in this way can it be saved," the mayorsaid. “The fee process will be experimental at first," he added.A one-day visit will cost about $7. City officials have yet to decide when the fee collectionwill begin. The money will be collected by transport companies that bring the tourists to Venice.The city will set up cameras for those arriving in private cars. And there will be fines for thosewho do not pay the fee. Students, some workers and children under the age of six will not have topay. Naturally, anyone born or living in Venice is exempt.City officials hope this will prevent the overcrowding that often comes with large numbers oftourists. Some people living in Venice say they do not believe the fee plan will work. LawyerRoberta Pierabon says it will be impossible to collect the money from everyone who visits the city. Visitors arrive from all sides. She doesnot believe tourists can be controlled and added that she disapproved of the plan. Other Venetians like the idea. They say it will make tourism lessaggressive. Venetians love their city and know it will never stop appealing to visitors. Venice is sospecial, they say, that it belongs to the whole of humanity.8. What is the biggest problem that arises in Venice?A. The visitor boom.B. The frequent flood.C. The poor city service.D. The waterway repair.9. How will city officials deal with the big problem?A.

Permitted to settle.C. Required not to enter.D. Allowed not to pay.DAustralian adults want to see＂life skills" introduced into school curriculums, includingmoney management, job preparation and domestic tasks. New research from Monash Universityshowed Aussie adults also widely supported the inclusion of technology, coding and artificialintelligence subjects to student curriculums to prepare them for future jobs.Co-author Professor Neil Selwyn, from Monash's new Education Futures, said the surveyresults of more than 2,000 Australians had taken himself and Dr Deana Leahy by surprise. “Thelife skills- -I wasn't expecting that at all," he said. Those quizzed were asked to rate the value of alist of subjects already in the curriculum, but were also given an open space to write what theythink should be included. Professor Selwyn said people called for schools to teach financial skills,budgeting, cooking and doing t axes. “You could argue that these are things people should belearning themselves, or learning from their families," Professor Selwyn said “But we've got to bethinking forward in terms of the skills people will need for jobs and their ways of living"One respondent said schools should introduce a “contemporary life skills" subject: “Acompulsory l-hour a week class on skills needed that parents seem continually unable to teachtheir kids." Suggestions for the class included resume writing, filing tax returns and health claims.Another respondent called for students to be taught general life skills as unfortunately not enoughkids will have parents to actually be bothered to educate them or simply parents don't knowthemselves.Of the subjects, maths was the highest ranked (75.5 percent), followed closely by English(74.8 percent). And while science was the third highest ranked subject (46.2 percent), it was morestrongly supported by those who earned higher wages and were university educated compared tolower income earners.Aspects of school life considered least important were students having fun, learning aboutthings that interested them and being given the opportunity to be creative.12. Why did the adults suggest adding “life skills" to school curriculums?A. To vary school curriculums.B. To enrich students' school life.C. To prepare students for future work and life.D. To save parents the trouble of educating kids.13. What did Professor Selwyn think of the adults' suggestions?A. Reasonable.B. Ridiculous.C. Interesting.D. Impractical.14. What does Paragraph 3 focus on?A. Opinions from the surveyed.B. Differences of school subjects.C. Reasons for the school survey.D. Investigations of the respondents.15. What can we know from the passage?A. The present curriculums are to adults' taste.B. Students' interests have been greatly promoted.C. The parents quizzed think highly of school life.D. Contemporary life skills involve resume writing.第二节(共5小题:每小题2.5 分，满分12.5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。

AMovie theaters around the world have closed during the coronations outbreak. Fortunately, there's never been a better time to catch up on classic old movies. Below, read our picks for best travel movies: ‘Thelma and Louise'(1991)“Thelma and Louise,”is a tale of female friendship, and the screen is dominated by the film's two lead females. The pals from small-town Arkansas hit the road on a weekend quest in search of fun and freedom from their jobs and their boredom.Filmed in California and Utah, with the best Grand Canyon scenes filmed south of Dead Horse Point State Park, “Thelma and Louise”is a good option if you have never been out West or if you have and eager to return.‘Grand Budapest Hotel' (2014)It's one of the most satisfying films of director Wes Anderson all works. Set in a luxury ski resort in the fictional East European Republic of Zubrowka in the 1930s, the plot is supported by a murder investigation filled with stolen art, prison escapes and a secret concierge (看门人) society.Though the hotel doesn't actually exist, much of the film was shot in the beautiful German town of Goerlitz, famed for its medieval streets.‘Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone'(200)When Harry Potter runs through a column at King's Cross railway station in London to get to Platform 9 3/4, we know it isn't real. And yet we want to visit.The movie's locations are inspired by real places, as graduates of English private schools will tell you: rushing down narrow old streets to visit tea houses and sandwich shops, discovering books that are hundreds of years old.‘The Trip to Italy' (2014)In this film, you're on an extraordinary road trip along with two old friends. The route is from Piedmont via Rome to Amalfi, back to Naples and finally the tony island of Capri. Retracing the footsteps of romantic poets Byron and Shelley, they drive a Mini Cooper through the breathtaking country and alongside stiff seaside cliffs.1. If you are interested in the scenery of American west, which film can you choose to watch?A. Thelma and Louise.B. Grand Budapest Hotel.C. Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone.D. The Trip to Italy.2. Which place mentioned in the films can't be found in real life?A. Goerlitz.B. Grand Budapest Hotel.C. Capri.D. Dead Horse Point State Park.。

ASome of the greatest scientists of all time are women who have made important discoveries in a variety of fields in science. Several of their contributions throughout history are even more than men's contributions. Our list of the most famous female scientists below are organized in order of popularity so you can read about the advancements that they made. Marie Curie （1867-1934）Famous For： Work on radioactivityMarie Curie was the first woman to win the Nobel Prize and the only woman to win this award in two fields：Physics and Chemistry. She discovered polonium and radium and her work helped with the creation of X-rays. Jane Goodall （1934）Famous For： Primate （灵长类）studiesJane Goodall is known world-wide for her groundbreaking studies on primates. She is considered as the top expert on chimps in the world and is perhaps best known for her 45-year study on the social lives of these animals in Tanzania.Rita Levi-Montalcini （1909-2012）Famous For： Nerve growth studiesRita Levi-Montalcini was a neurologist （神经病学家）who won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1986 for her findings in Nerve Growth Factor （NGF）. She was the first Nobel prize winner to live past her 100th birthday.Lise Meitner （1878-1968）Famous For： Work on radioactivity and nuclear physicsLise Meitner was a key member of a group that discovered nuclear fission （裂变）. One of her colleagues, Otto Hahn, was given the Noble Prize for this work. That Meitner didn't get the award is considered to be a huge error by the Nobel committee.1. Who is still contributing to the world?A. Marie Curie.B. Jane Goodall.C. Rita Levi-Montalcini.D. Lise Meitner.2. What did Rita Levi-Montalcini reseach on?A. Nerve growth.B. The wildlife.C.

The annual competition tasks students in grades fifth to eighth with making a video tracing a unique solution to an everyday problem. Crouchley is one of 10 finalists chosen out of thousands of students this year.After watching her brother enter the competition several years ago, Crouchley, who has always loved science, couldn't wait for her turn. In May, she submitted a two-minute video about her idea to the organizer to create growing methods of public transportation. When she found out she was a finalist in June, she couldn't believe it.Crouchley's project was inspired by the construction she sees every day outside her window in Garden City, as well as the Long Island Railroad's recent expansion. She noticed transportation causes pollution in her community, and she was determined to find a way to stop it.“Maybe one day, we can have better technology and find a way to help the environment，，,” Crouchley said. In her video, Crouchley explains that the use of fossil fuels let out by public transportation is a major cause of environmental problems. She believes technology that reduces the need for a diesel （柴油）engine or an electric motor is the solution. To show her idea in action, she designed a new type of train.Crouchley created a computerized system design model for her train using an engineering program called Autodesk Inventor. She brought the train to life using a 3D printer, magnets （磁铁）and a solar-powered air compressor （压缩机）.Crouchley said it took a long time to develop her ideas and make the video. She had to work under deadlines, too, which she said was stressful.4. What's the competition about?A. Solving daily problems.B. Knowing about science.C. Meeting personal curiosity.D. Answering the question on science.5. Which can replace the underlined word “tracing" in paragraph 1?A. arrestingB. overcomingC. describingD. accumulating6. What's the purpose of Crouchley's project?A. To help protect the environment.B. To invent a new kind of transportation.C. To inspire teenagers to struggle for their dreams.D. To find a solution to avoid using transportation.7. Which of the following best describes Crouchley?A. Energetic.B. Creative.C. Humorous.D. Demanding.CYou might easily gain access to fresh fruit and vegetables, but this isn't the case in some parts of America. The U. S. has many areas that are considered as food deserts, which are defined as parts of the country short of fresh fruit, vegetables and other healthy food, usually found in poor areas.Food deserts are urban areas where the nearest grocery store is more than 1 mile away, and rural areas where the nearest grocery store is more than 10 miles away. According to the USDA, 19 mil- lion Americans—or 6. 2% of the population—live in places that can be considered as food deserts.The issue isn't necessarily about the difference in cost between healthy and unhealthy foods in these areas but it's about a lack of access to healthy choices at all. And, with the lack of healthy food choices, these areas typically have a large supply of unhealthy foods sold at fast-food companies and convenience stores.Eating unhealthy foods can lead to overweight, which puts people at risk for all kinds of major health issues, including high blood pressure, heart disease, and some cancers.But some people, especially those who cannot afford a car, are stuck with eating what's readily available. In the case of food deserts, it's usually the type of food that can lead to over- weight. Studies have shown that this is likely to be a problem in low-income areas. When money is not enough, people tend to buy foods that last longer and remove food waste, which is a waste of their limited income.Lack of access is only one part of the problem, however. A study published in 2018 found that food inequality wasn't removed. The bigger issue was likely the lack of education and nutritional knowledge in these communities, which prevents people with lower incomes from understanding the benefits of healthy eating.While overweight is a significant issue in these communities, the cost of unhealthy eating isn't just physical.A study found that 71 billion dollars in healthcare costs due to chronic diseases could be saved through healthier eating.8. What can we infer from the first two paragraphs?A. 6. 2% of the Americans live in poor areas.B. Some parts of the USA lack fresh vegetables.C. Some people in America don't need fresh fruit.D. People in the food deserts buy fresh vegetables easily.9. Why can fast-food companies sell large amounts of unhealthy food in the food deserts?A. These areas are rich in unhealthy food materials.B. Fast-food companies want to make a larger profit.C. Healthy food choices are unavailable in these areas.D. People in these areas prefer unhealthy food to healthy food.10. What do studies say about people in low-income areas?A. They are less likely to have overweight problems.B. They are delighted to prepare food for themselves.C. They have to buy food that can be preserved longer.D. They are used to eating food donated by food companies.11. What stops people from understanding healthy eating benefits in the food deserts?A. Lack of government financial support.B. Lack of knowledge of disease prevention.C. Lack of social promotion of healthy eating.D. Lack of education and knowledge in nutrition.DRescuing victims from a burning building, a chemical spill, or any disaster that is inaccessible to human responders could one day be a task for adaptable robots. Imagine, for instance, rescue-robots rising up on two legs can bound through rubble （碎石），push aside a heavy obstacle, or break through a locked door.Engineers are improving the design of four-legged robots and their ability to run, jump and even do back leaps. But getting two-legged, human-like robots to use force or push against something without falling has been a lion in the way.Now engineers at MIT and the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign have developed a method to control balance in a two-legged, tele-operated robot—an essential step toward enabling a human-like to carry out high-impact tasks in challenging environments. The team's robot, physically resembling a machined body and two legs, is controlled remotely by a human operator wearing a vest that sends information about the human's motion and ground reaction forces to the robot. Through the vest, the human operator can direct and experience the robot's movements. If the robot is starting to tip over, the human feels the same pull on the vest and can adjust in a way to rebalance both himself and the robot.In experiments with the robot to test this new balance feedback" approach, the researchers were able to remotely maintain the robot's balance as it jumped and walked in sync （同步）with its human operator.“It's like running with a heavy backpack—you can feel how the dynamics （力）of the backpack move around you, and you can make up properly," says Joao Ramos, who developed the approach as an MIT Postdoctor. “Now if you want to open a heavy door, the human can command the robot to throw its body at the door and push it open, without losing balance. ”12.What's the function of the first paragraph?A. Advertise a new robot.B. Show the appearance of the robot.C. Tell the principle of the two-legged robot.D. Introduce the purpose of the two-legged robot.13. What is the trouble with human-like robots?A. It's hard for them to do back leaps.B. It's hard for them to keep their balance.C. They can't push against anything hard.D. They often fall down when meeting the lions.14. What is special about the robot research at MIT?A. The tested robot's actions can be felt by the human operator.B. The robot is tested in challenging environments.C. The data on the tested robot is sent by phones.D. The tested robot has a voice-control system.15. Which is the best title for the text?A. The Strength of Two-legged RobotB. The Development History of RobotC. A New Four-legged Rescuing RobotD. New Research on Two-legged Robot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能填入空白处的最佳选项。

I had cabled London from Amsterdam, and there was a hired car to meet, but there was one more unfortunate happening before I reached my flat. In all my travels I have never, but for that once, been required by the British customs to open a single bag or to do more than state that I carried no goods liable to duty. It was, of course, my fault; the extreme tiredness and nervous tension of the journey had destroyed my diplomacy.I was, for whichever reason, so tired that I could hardly stand, and to the question, “have you read this?” I replied with extreme foolishness, “yes, hundreds of times.”“And you have nothing to declare?”“Nothing.”“How long have you been out of this country?”“About three months.”“And during that time you have acquired nothing?”“Nothing but what is on the list I have given you.”He seemed momentarily at a loss, but then he attacked. The attack, when it came, was utterly unexpected.“Where did you get that watch?’I could have kicked myself. Two days before, when playing water games with a friend in the bath, I had forgotten to take off my ROLEX, and it had, not unnaturally, stopped. I had gone into the market and bought, for twelve shillings and six pence, an ugly time piece that made a strange noise. It had stopped twice, without any reason, during the journey.I explained, but I had already lost face. I produced my own watch from a pocket, and added that I should be grateful if he would confiscate (没收) the replacement.“It is not a question of confiscation,” he said, “there is a fine for failing to declare dutia ble goods. And now may I please examine that Rolex?”It took another quarter of an hour to persuade him that the Rolex was not contraband (走私货). Just when I let out a sigh of relief, he began to search my luggage!4. When did the writer arrive at London Airport?A. In the early morning.B. Late at night.C. At noon.D. Late in the morning.5. What can we conclude from the questions asked by the customs officer?A. He was just doing his duty by asking the passenger some usual questions.B. He must have noticed the writer's ugly watch.C. He wanted to embarrass the writer.D. He must have noticed the writer's tiredness.6. What did the writer think of the watch he bought in the market?A. He was fond of the watch because it was a Rolex.B. He found the watch useful though it was very cheap.C. He didn't like the watch at all.D. He was interested in the watch.7. After reading the story we can infer that the writer _______.A. knew little about the customs regulationsB. must have spent a long time at the customs and have been let go without any punishmentC. must have been fined because of carrying many contraband goodsD. must have failed in catching the hired carCThis season, the bushfires in Australia have burned more than 12.35 million acres of land. At least 25 people have been killed and 2000 homes destroyed. According to the BBC, this is the most casualties(伤亡) from wildfires in the country since 2009. The University of Sydney estimates that 480 million animals have died in South Wales alone.Zeke Hausfather, an energy systems analyst and climate researcher at Berkeley Earth, said warmer temperatures and extreme weather have made Australia more susceptible to fires and increased the length of the length of the fire season. “ The drie r conditions combined with record high temperatures in 2019 created main conditions for the disastrous fires. Australia’s fires were worsened by the combination of those two. 2019 was the perfect storm for being the warmest year on record for Australia and the driest year on record for Australia,” Hausfather added on Friday.Kevin Trenberth, a senior scientist at the US National Center for Atmospheric Research, said warmer ocean temperatures are also contributed to more variable weather around the world. Trenberth believes that global warming contributed to energy imbalances and hot spots in the oceans, which can create a wave in the atmosphere that locks weather patterns in places, causing longer rain events in Indonesia, for example, and at the same time contributing to drought in Australia. He said that once an area experiences drought conditions for two months or more, it increases the risk of fires catching and spreading. Those changing weather patterns due to global warming make drought events longer.Climate experts stress that climate change is not the only factor in the severity of wildfires. How land is managed can also impact the amount of fuel available for fires. Practices like controlled burns and other factors can impact the risk to people and property, such as warning systems and the type of development in a given area. Changing those policies has great potential to limit future damage from wildfires along with changes to how fire management resources are dispatched(派遣).8.What are the numbers about in paragraph 1?A. The causes of Australian fires.B. The results of Australian fires.C. The damaged areas of Australian fires.D. The property destruction of Australian fires.9. Which of the following best explains "susceptible to"in the second paragraph?A. Very quickly to adapt to.B. Very seriously to focus on.C. Very likely to be influenced by.D. Very easily to be protected against.10. What can we infer from Trenberth's research?A. Global warming is the root cause of the bushfires.B. Longer dry weather contributes to global warming.C. Warmer ocean temperatures promote fires spreading.D. The imbalanced energy leads to the temperature rising.11. What does the author intend to do in the last paragraph?A. To stress the effects of Australia fires.B. To show the methods for controlling burns.C. To predict the seriousness of Australia fires.D. To provide some advice about reducing damage.DFor grownups, an afternoon snooze(打盹) is often easier said than done. But many of us have probably experienced just how simple it can be to catch some sleep in a gently rocking hammock(吊床). By examining brain waves in sleeping adults, researchers reported in the June 21 issue of Current Biology, a Cell Press publication, that they now have evidence to explain why that is.“It is a common belief that rocking causes sleep: we fall asleep in a rocking chair soon and, since ancient times, we cradle our babies to sleep,” said Sophie Schwartz of the University of Geneva.“Yet, how this works had remained a mystery. The goal of our study was made up of two parts: to test whether rocking does indeed improve sleep, and to understand how this might work at the brain level.”Schwartz, Michel Mühlethaler, and their colleagues Laurence Bayer and Irina Constantinescu asked twelve adult volunteers to nap on a custom made bed or “experimental hammock” that could either remain still or rock gently. All participants were good sleepers who didn’t typically nap and did not suffer from excessive sleepiness during the day. Each participant took two 45minute afternoon naps, one with the bed still and one with the bed in motion, while their brain activity was monitored.“We observed a faster transition to sleep in each and every subject in the swinging condition,” Mühlethaler said. “Surprisingly, we also observed a dramatic boosting of certain types of sleeprelated brain waves.”More specifically, rocking increased the length of stage N2 sleep, a form of nonrapid eye movement sleep that normally occupies about half of a good night’s sleep. The rocking bed also had a lasting effect on brain activity, increasing slow brain waves and bursts of activity known as sleep spindles(纺锤体).Schwartz and Mühlethaler say the next step is to find out whether rocking can improve longer periods of sleep and to find out whether it may be useful for the treatment of sleep disorders, such as insomnia(失眠).12.What does the June 21 issue of Current Biology tell us according to Paragraph 1?A.It is more difficult for grownups to fall asleep.B.People today like to sleep in a rocking hammock.C.Many people nowadays suffer from excessive sleepiness.D.There comes the evidence to explain why rocking benefits people’s sleep.13．What can we learn from Sophie Schwartz’s words?A. Her team aimed to answer two questions.B. The study is going to benefit babies a lot.C. The study had been kept secret before being finished.D. People used to believe rocking was bad for sleep.14. What finding was beyond the resea rchers’ expectation?A. The rocking seemed to improve participants’ sleep quality.B. All the participants fell asleep faster in the swinging condition.C. Some participants couldn’t fall asleep in the swinging condition.D. Participants had a tendency to sleep excessively in the swinging bed.15. A suitable title for this passage would probably be .A. Take a Snooze.Easier Said than DoneB. Want a Faster Sleep? Change Your Sleeping HabitsC. Need a Nap? Find Yourself a HammockD. Suffer from Sleep Disorder?

ASome of the greatest scientists of all time are women who have made important discoveries in a variety of fields in science. Several of their contributions throughout history are even more than men’s contributions. Our list of the most famous female scientists below are organized in order of popularity so you can read about the advancements that they made.Marie Curie (1867-1934)Famous For: Work on radioactivityMarie Curie was the first woman to win the Nobel Prize and the only woman to win this award in two fields: Physics and Chemistry. She discovered polonium and radium and her work helped with the creation of X-rays.Jane Goodall (1934)Famous For: Primate (灵长类) studiesJane Goodall is known world-wide for her groundbreaking studies on primates. She is considered as the top expert on chimps in the world and is perhaps best known for her 45-year study on the social lives of these animals in Tanzania.Rita Levi-Montalcini (1909-2012)Famous For: Nerve growth studiesRita Levi-Montalcini was a neurologist (神经病学家) who won the Nobel Prize in Physiology orMedicine in 1986 for her findings in Nerve Growth Factor (NGF). She was the first Nobel Prize winner to live past her 100th birthday.Lise Meitner (1878-1968)Famous For: Work on radioactivity and nuclear physicsLise Meitner was a key member of a group that discovered nuclear fission (裂变).

AFor some of us who long to travel, it can be difficult to find someone to journey with. Friends and family members are tied down in jobs, struggling to save money, and don't always want to go to the same places. The solution, of course, is to go it alone.Melbourne, AustraliaMelbourne is a hot-spot travel destination, which has beautiful beaches as well as busy and lively city life. Australia as a whole is considered a safe destination for international travel, and because of that, many solo （单独）travelers go there. Melbourne is incredibly easy to get around because you can walk or bike practically anywhere!ThailandThailand is great for solo travelers - perhaps because it is one of the Buddhist mentality, which promotes equality among the sexes. Thailand is known for its friendly hospitality, and as a travel hot-spot, there are plenty of chances to meet other like-minded travelers. Overall known for being very cheap, especially in the north, it's a good choice if you want to get away on a budget.BhutanBhutan is one of the most cultural countries in the world. It is also home to the world's highest unclimbed peak, Gangkhar Puensum. The mountain is sacred （神圣的）and entry is only possible on a pre-booked tour, where you are accompanied around by your own personal guide. Plastic bags have been banned in Bhutan since 1999 and in 2004, it became the first country in the world to outlaw tobacco.Costa RicaCosta Rica is a great place if you're looking for adventure, with surfing, volcanoes and other recreational activities. You’ll never get a chance to feel lonely because there's an abundance of exciting adventures to experience! Costa Rica has never seen political unrest; class struggles or revolutions commonly associated with other Latin American Countries. What's more, it doesn't have or need an army because it's such a peaceful country.1. Which place is suitable for travelers short of money?A. Melbourne, Australia.B. Thailand.C. Bhutan.D. Costa Rica.2. What can we learn about travelling in Bhutan?A. You can climb the mountain without booking ahead.B. You can prepare some plastic bags for your rubbish.C. You can experience the rich culture there.D. Smoking is allowed at the foot of the mountain.3. Where does this text probably come from?A. A historical document.B. A science magazine.C. A travel guide.D. A book review.BOfficer Michael Rivers, a policeman who was snapped （抓拍）and the image shared on Facebook, as he sat sharing his lunch with a homeless woman at the side of the road in North Carolina, in the USA, is praised.According to Chris Barnes, his wife Cassie took the photo while she was on her lunch break. She saw the pair sharing a pizza and soft drink while they were having。

高三开学收心检测英语第一部分阅读(共两节,满分50分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2. 5分,满分37. 5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。
ASome of the greatest scientists of all time are women who have made important discoveries in a variety of fields in science. Several of their contributions throughout history are even more than men's contributions. Our list of the most famous female scientists below are organized in order of popularity so you can read about the advancements that they made. Marie Curie (1867-1934)Famous For: Work on radioactivityMarie Curie was the first woman to win the Nobel Prize and the only woman to win this award in two fields: Physics and Chemistry. She discovered polonium and radium and her work helped with the creation of X-rays. Jane Goodall (1934)Famous For: Primate (灵长类)studiesJane Goodall is known world-wide for her groundbreaking studies on primates. She is considered as the top expert on chimps in the world and is perhaps best known for her 45-year study on the social lives of these animals in Tanzania.Rita Levi-Montalcini (1909-2012)Famous For: Nerve growth studiesRita Levi-Montalcini was a neurologist (神经病学家)who won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1986 for her findings in Nerve Growth Factor (NGF). She was the first Nobel prize winner to live past her 100th birthday.Lise Meitner (1878-1968)Famous For: Work on radioactivity and nuclear physicsLise Meitner was a key member of a group that discovered nuclear fission (裂变). One of her colleagues, Otto Hahn, was given the Noble Prize for this work. That Meitner didn't get the award is considered to be a huge error by the Nobel committee.1. Who is still contributing to the world?A. Marie Curie.B. Jane Goodall.C. Rita Levi-Montalcini.D. Lise Meitner.2. What did Rita Levi-Montalcini reseach on?A. Nerve growth.B. The wildlife.C. Nuclear explosion.D. Radioactivity.3. What do we know about Lise Meitner?A. She was awarded the Nobel Prize.B. She made a big mistake in her work.C. She did lots of studies about nerve growth.D. She made great contributions to nuclear physics.BKnowing more about science than the average middle student, Caroline Crouchley,, 13 , of Garden City is a finalist in the 2019 3M Young Scientist Challenge. The annual competition tasks students in grades fifth to eighth with making a video tracing a unique solution to an everyday problem. Crouchley is one of 10 finalists chosen out of thousands of students this year.After watching her brother enter the competition several years ago, Crouchley, who has always loved science, couldn't wait for her turn. In May, she submitted a two-minute video about her idea to the organizer to create growing methods of public transportation. When she found out she was a finalist in June, she couldn't believe it.Crouchley's project was inspired by the construction she sees every day outside her window in Garden City, as well as the Long Island Railroad's recent expansion. She noticed transportation causes pollution in her community, and she was determined to find a way to stop it.“Maybe one day, we can have better technology and find a way to help the environment,,,” Crouchley said. In her video, Crouchley explains that the use of fossil fuels let out by public transportation is a major cause of environmental problems. She believes technology that reduces the need for a diesel (柴油)engine or an electric motor is the solution. To show her idea in action, she designed a new type of train.Crouchley created a computerized system design model for her train using an engineering program called Autodesk Inventor. She brought the train to life using a 3D printer, magnets (磁铁)and a solar-powered air compressor (压缩机).Crouchley said it took a long time to develop her ideas and make the video. She had to work under deadlines, too, which she said was stressful.4. What's the competition about?A. Solving daily problems.B. Knowing about science.C. Meeting personal curiosity.D. Answering the question on science.5. Which can replace the underlined word “tracing" in paragraph 1?A. arrestingB. overcomingC. describingD. accumulating6. What's the purpose of Crouchley's project?A. To help protect the environment.B. To invent a new kind of transportation.C. To inspire teenagers to struggle for their dreams.D. To find a solution to avoid using transportation.7. Which of the following best describes Crouchley?A. Energetic.B. Creative.C. Humorous.D. Demanding.CYou might easily gain access to fresh fruit and vegetables, but this isn't the case in some parts of America. The U. S. has many areas that are considered as food deserts, which are defined as parts of the country short of fresh fruit, vegetables and other healthy food, usually found in poor areas.Food deserts are urban areas where the nearest grocery store is more than 1 mile away, and rural areas where the nearest grocery store is more than 10 miles away. According to the USDA, 19 mil- lion Americans—or 6. 2% of the population—live in places that can be considered as food deserts.The issue isn't necessarily about the difference in cost between healthy and unhealthy foods in these areas but it's about a lack of access to healthy choices at all. And, with the lack of healthy food choices, these areas typically have a large supply of unhealthy foods sold at fast-food companies and convenience stores.Eating unhealthy foods can lead to overweight, which puts people at risk for all kinds of major health issues, including high blood pressure, heart disease, and some cancers.But some people, especially those who cannot afford a car, are stuck with eating what's readily available. In the case of food deserts, it's usually the type of food that can lead to over- weight. Studies have shown that this is likely to be a problem in low-income areas. When money is not enough, people tend to buy foods that last longer and remove food waste, which is a waste of their limited income.Lack of access is only one part of the problem, however. A study published in 2018 found that food inequality wasn't removed. The bigger issue was likely the lack of education and nutritional knowledge in these communities, which prevents people with lower incomes from understanding the benefits of healthy eating.While overweight is a significant issue in these communities, the cost of unhealthy eating isn't just physical.A study found that 71 billion dollars in healthcare costs due to chronic diseases could be saved through healthier eating.8. What can we infer from the first two paragraphs?A. 6. 2% of the Americans live in poor areas.B. Some parts of the USA lack fresh vegetables.C. Some people in America don't need fresh fruit.D. People in the food deserts buy fresh vegetables easily.9. Why can fast-food companies sell large amounts of unhealthy food in the food deserts?A. These areas are rich in unhealthy food materials.B. Fast-food companies want to make a larger profit.C. Healthy food choices are unavailable in these areas.D. People in these areas prefer unhealthy food to healthy food.10. What do studies say about people in low-income areas?A. They are less likely to have overweight problems.B. They are delighted to prepare food for themselves.C. They have to buy food that can be preserved longer.D. They are used to eating food donated by food companies.11. What stops people from understanding healthy eating benefits in the food deserts?A. Lack of government financial support.B. Lack of knowledge of disease prevention.C. Lack of social promotion of healthy eating.D. Lack of education and knowledge in nutrition.DRescuing victims from a burning building, a chemical spill, or any disaster that is inaccessible to humanresponders could one day be a task for adaptable robots. Imagine, for instance, rescue-robots rising up on two legs can bound through rubble (碎石),push aside a heavy obstacle, or break through a locked door.Engineers are improving the design of four-legged robots and their ability to run, jump and even do back leaps. But getting two-legged, human-like robots to use force or push against something without falling has been a lion in the way.Now engineers at MIT and the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign have developed a method to control balance in a two-legged, tele-operated robot—an essential step toward enabling a human-like to carry out high-impact tasks in challenging environments. The team's robot, physically resembling a machined body and two legs, is controlled remotely by a human operator wearing a vest that sends information about the human's motion and ground reaction forces to the robot. Through the vest, the human operator can direct and experience the robot's movements. If the robot is starting to tip over, the human feels the same pull on the vest and can adjust in a way to rebalance both himself and the robot.In experiments with the robot to test this new balance feedback" approach, the researchers were able to remotely maintain the robot's balance as it jumped and walked in sync (同步)with its human operator.“It's like running with a heavy backpack—you can feel how the dynamics (力)of the backpack move around you, and you can make up properly," says Joao Ramos, who developed the approach as an MIT Postdoctor. “Now if you want to open a heavy door, the human can command the robot to throw its body at the door and push it open, without losing balance. ”12.What's the function of the first paragraph?A. Advertise a new robot.B. Show the appearance of the robot.C. Tell the principle of the two-legged robot.D. Introduce the purpose of the two-legged robot.13. What is the trouble with human-like robots?A. It's hard for them to do back leaps.B. It's hard for them to keep their balance.C. They can't push against anything hard.D. They often fall down when meeting the lions.14. What is special about the robot research at MIT?A. The tested robot's actions can be felt by the human operator.B. The robot is tested in challenging environments.C. The data on the tested robot is sent by phones.D. The tested robot has a voice-control system.15. Which is the best title for the text?A. The Strength of Two-legged RobotB. The Development History of RobotC. A New Four-legged Rescuing RobotD. New Research on Two-legged Robot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能填入空白处的最佳选项。
