People have always been scared of sharks,but Jaws made things worse.It made people frightened of sharks,especially of the great white shark.Many people who saw the film started to believe that sharks were bad animals that ate humans.Some people stopped swimming in the sea,afraid of the horrible creature from the film.Other people started fishing for sharks,killing as many as they could.At that time,nobody cared if sharks were killed,or how many were killed.People just wanted them killed.After 1975，the number of large sharks around America fell quickly,and soon fell around the world.This was not only due to fear of sharks,but also finning.Finning is a type of fishing where sharks are caught and their fins cut off.The sharks are thrown back into the sea where they die slowly and painfully.The fins are used in shark fin soup.Finning kills millions of sharks a year. Finning would have an unexpected effect upon Peter Benchley,the man who wrote the book the film Jaws was based on.In 1980，Benchley was diving when he came across an awful sight.It was an area where fishermen were finning,and the sea floor was covered with dead sharks.Benchley saw sharks being killed and this caused a deep change in him.He came to see people as a danger to sharks,rather than the other way round.From that day on,he fought to protect sharks.He admitted that his book was wrong about sharks' behavior. "Sharks don't target humans," he said.Experts have proved that sharks do not see people as food,and theyattack us by mistake.Only around six people are killed by sharks every year.Fortunately,not everyone who watched the film Jaws became afraid of sharks - some became interested in understanding them.Today,as we learn more about sharks.more people than ever want to protect them from extinction.17.Which of the following is true of the 1975 film Jaws？______A. A woman swam gracefully along with a shark in the opening sceneB. The film challenged people's long-held belief of the great white sharkC. Many awards were given to the film due to the frightening killing scenesD. The shark was described as a cruel and dangerous animal to swimmers18.What did people begin to do after they saw the film？______A. Some became more fascinated in swimming in the seaB.

Some called on others to protect the endangered sharks19.What happens to a shark when it is finned？______A. It will be served onto the table as soupsB. It will suffer a lot and die slowly in the seaC. Its fins will grow again after some timeD. Its fins will be thrown away into the ocean20.What caused a deep change to Peter Benchley？______A. Seeing the finning scene and many dead sharksB. Joining the fishermen who were killing and finningC. Writing the book the film Jaws was based onD. Knowing that sharks do not target and eat humans21.What is the author's purpose in writing the passage？______A. To inform people about sharks and recommend the film and the book to themB. To describe the cruel finning scene and prove that sharks are dangerous animalsC. To explain people's misunderstanding of sharks and raise awareness of sharkprotectionD. To criticize Peter Benchley's misleading description of sharks in his book and advocatethe protection of sharksBPicking up free newspaper at the Tube station,I see the title "Hot!Hot!Hot!".Today,the temperature in London is expected to reach 30 plus degrees.The average high temperature in July is only 22 degrees,so over 30 is not usual for London.It's going to be awful on the central line with no air conditioning.Why did they have to invent the Tube before air conditioning？It's just typical that my journey is on one of the oldest lines,as well as one of the deepest.It's the hottest on the whole tube system.Sure enough,going down the stairs and onto the platform is like jumping into a volcano that's erupting.This,however,is nothing compared to the train.Because there's no air conditioning,the temperature inside the train can reach 35 degrees!It's lovely at the beach,but not so when you are wearing a suit and in a crowd of passengers.I'm sure the passenger next to me and I are melting and becoming one.I had bacon and eggs for breakfast and now I'm feeling a bit sick - I hope I can make it to bank station.I will avoid the feeling by thinking about work.I work in a tall,glass building.One very hot summer,the sun reflected off it and melted cars park below.Will this happen again today？Yes,each summer in London definitely seems hotter than the last.I suddenly feel a bit scared.Perhaps now is the time to start planning for the future.I should probably put my flat on the market and buy a boat.That way,when the Thames rises and there is a flood in London,I'll still be able to get to work.But wait!Would I still have a workplace to go？My office is only on the third floor of the building,so quite low.I'll speak with my manager about moving to the top floor.Most importantly,I will need to learn to swim!I would join a beginner swimming class immediately.Then I'll be able to survive even when the tall buildings are flooded.Looking through my newspaper,I'm shocked by photos showing that a hurricane in Asia has destroyed a town.What's more,heavy rain in Eastern Europe has caused landslides,and the heat across the Southern Europe has caused forest fires.Experts say this bad weather has occurred due to climate change.News like this makes me feel nervous.Now that it's hard to avoid disaster on Earth,perhaps I should start thinking about moving to space."The next station is bank!" comes the announcement.That's my destination.Stepping out of the station with a heavy heart,I suddenly feel a fresh wind on my face.Well,maybe I have been worrying too much.After all,it's only 30 degrees outside!22.What is true about the Central Line in Paragraph 1？______A.

To express his worries about the dangers of extreme weather conditions.CPre - school children who spend time together take on one another's personalities, "new research has found.The study shows that environment plays a key role in shaping people's personalities.While genetics still forms the central part of the human psyche（心理），the research finds that personality traits（特征）are "contagious" （传染的）among children. " Our finding flies in the face of common assumptions that personality can't be changed," said Dr.Jennifer Neal,co-author of the study.The researchers studied the personalities and social networks of two pre-school classes for a full school year.One of the classes was a set of three-year-olds,and the other a set offour-year-olds.Children whose friends were hard-working or outgoing gradually took on thesepersonality traits over time.Psychology expert Dr.Emily Dublin said kids are having a far bigger effect on each other than people may realize.The new study is not the first to explore the contagious effects of personality traits.A 2015 psychology study found that rudeness at work can be contagious as it travels from person to person "like a disease".The study found that seeing a boss being rude to an employee was enough to cause people to be rude to those around them.The researchers questioned 6，000 people on the social "climate" in their workplaces,which included offices,hotels and restaurants.They found 75 percent of those who took part said they had been treated rudely at least once in the past year.And the study also suggests that merely seeing other people being subjected to rudeness made it more likely that a person would treat their colleagues in the same way.Rudeness could include leaving someone off an invite to a company event,sending unkind emails,finding fault with others or failing to give praise.Dr.Torkelson believes companies need to be more aware of the harm that rudeness in the workplace can do as it can damage the working environment.She said better training could help to fight against the problem.27.What does the underlined part "flies in the face of" in Paragraph 1 mean？______A. Leads to.B. Goes against.C. Results from.D. Agrees with.28.According to Paragraph 2，who have the greatest impact on children's personality？______A. Their friends.B. Their parents.C. The researchers.D. The psychologists.29.Which of the following is considered rude at the workplace？______A. Ignoring the faults of co-workers.B. Not sending emails to workmates.C. Seeking praise from colleagues and bosses.D. Not inviting a colleague to a company party.30.What is the passage mainly about？______A. One's personality is hard to change.B. One's personality is shaped by genes.C. One's personality traits can spread to others.D. One's personality traits can change overnight.31.This passage is most probably taken from ______ .A. a school textbookB. a study guideC. a science reportD. a technical journal四、完形填空（本大题共20小题，共30.0分）A young school teacher had a dream.In his dream,an angel appeared and said,"You will be given a child who will grow up to become a world(32).How will you prepare him so that he will realize his (33)，develop both his confidence and sensitivity,be open-minded,and strong in character？In short,what kind of education will you (34) so that he can become one of the world's truly great leaders？"The young teacher(35) in a cold sweat.It had never(36) to him before-any one of his present or future students could be the person (37) in his dream.Was he preparing them to rise to any position which they may (38)？He thought,"How might my teaching change if I knew that one of my students were this person？" A plan was (39) developed in his mind.This student would need experience as well as instructions.He would need to know how to solve problems of various kinds.He would need to know the value of lifelong learning in order to keep a curious and (40) mind.His teaching(41).Every young person who walked through his(42) became,for him,a future world leader.He saw each one,not as they were,but as they could be.He(43) the best from his students,yet tempered（使缓和）it with sympathy and assistance.He taught each one as if the future of the world depended on his instructions.After many years,a woman he taught(44) to a position of world fame.He realized thatshe(45)have been the child described in his dream.She was not only one of his(46)，but rather his daughter.Of all the (47) teachers in her life,her father was the best.Children are(48) messages we send to a time and place we will never see.Believe that one child's(49)may depend upon the difference only you can make,and something remarkablewill(50)，for no young person will ever be(51) to you again.And you will never be the same.32.
