AWe ate on the go more than ever before. Here are three health apps that can help you better manage your health when you pursue your dreams.(1) Doctors On DemandDoctors On Demand enables you to visit a doctor without ever leaving your home, helping you use a computer, tablet or smart phone to have a doctor video chat with you. The service will help you locate and connect you to licensed doctors, psychologists, pediatricians (儿科医生) and more. Fees can be paid with HAS & FSA. It costs $ 40 for 15 minutes with a doctor or $50 for 20 minutes with a psychologist.(2) Text 4 babyI’m a big fan of Text4baby for a few reasons. The free service for pregnant women and new moms works by sending text messages to your smart phone three times a week with information about how to have a healthy pregnancy and baby. And the messages are timed to the pregnant woman’s due date or the baby’s date of birth, sendingtips that are relevant to where a mother is in her pregnancy or where a baby is in stages of development. Tips range from breastfeeding to car seat safety to reminders about exercise, nutrition and more. The service combines interactive text messages, an app, video and web content in English and Spanish. Sign up by texting BABY to 511-411 or by downloading the app.(3) RISERISE, an app available on iPhone (coming to Android in 2016), pairs you up with (与绑定) a registered dietitian to improve your diet and reach health goals. You share photos of your meals and your exercise for the day with your coach, who then looks for areas where you can improve and gives advice, helps you set goals and is there to pat you on the back virtually (虚拟地) when you hit a milestone. What’s also great is that you can text as much as you want with your dietitian and there is no need to go into an office. Fees for this service range from $9 per month to $50 a month. There is a free 7-day trial so you can try it out for a week to see if it’s fit for you.21. How much will you pay if you have a video chat with your psychologist for an hour using Doctors On Demand?A. $50.B. $80.C. $100.D. $150.22. We can infer that the author is probably a .A. famous pediatricianB. software engineerC. pregnant woman or new motherD. registered dietitian23. What do you know about Text 4 baby?A. It is an app available only on iPhone.B. You can sign up by texting BABY to 511-411.C. People can’t use Text4baby for free.D. Text messages are sent in three languages.B54-year-old Abdul has a special job. He has been working as a living statue for over three decades, standing perfectly still for six hours a day and resistingpeople’s attempts to make him move or smile, anything that proves he is a living person.Abdul, known as “India’s Statue Man,” has been performing his daily routine ever since 1985, soon after getting a job as a security guard. His boss had recently traveled to the UK, where he was so impressed by the statue-like members of the Royal Guard outside Buckingham Palace that he wanted to do something similar back home. So he had his guards receive three months of training, where they would sit perfectly still for around four hours. They weren’t allowed to talk or smile, eat, drink, or even shoo away a fly if it sat on their faces. In the end, Abdul proved the best of the group, so he got the strange job.Abdul isn’t the only person in the world acting as a living statue, but what makes him special is the fact that he can do it for as long as six hours without even blinking his eyes. Once, a $ 155 prize was put up for anyone who can make him move a muscle. But try as they might, no one has ever succeeded. Actually, Abdul tries to move about as much as he can in his spare time, and only eats healthy home-cooked food, to keep his body in shape. But he claims yoga has been the biggest help. In the 32 years, Abdul has become a celebrity in India and other Asian countries. Many Bollywood celebritiesAbdul earns about 10,000 rupees ($ 156) a month, which is enough to support his family, but definitely not enough to encourage his children to follow in his footsteps. It’s just too stressful and taxing on the body. “Despite all the hardship and health problems, I love my job and I am thankful to people for the love and respect they have showered on me... he says. “When the time comes, I want to die playing a statue.”24. What is Abdul’s daily routine?A. Performing as a living statue.B. Proving to be a living person.C. Smiling at his customers.D. Keeping his body in shape.25. Why could Abdul get the strange job given by his boss?A. He had his special ambition.B. He was most familiar withthe job.C. He stood out among the group.D. He knew the boss more than others.26. What does Abdul do in his spare time?A. He eats a lot of snacks.B. He practices yoga for 12 hours a day.C. He cooks for his family.D. He always moves a lot.27. How does Abdul feel about his job according to the text?A. It’s overpaid.B. It’s satisfying.C. It’s boring.D. It’s instructive.CCycling or even walking in city areas can be a little dangerous, thanks to the fact that one is sharing the road with vehicles that are increasingly getting larger and heavier. A recent study proves that of the 1.27 million people that die in road traffic crashes each year, about half are walkers, motorcyclists and cyclists. Now there may be a solution that could provide at least some help to protect this helpless group… an airbag!If you are worried that this safety measure will involve you taking around a heavy package or worse still, wrapping yourself inside an ugly plastic bag, the bag is fitted not on the human, but on the outside of the vehicle. And, while there are several versions of the idea in the works, the one most recently unveiled (揭露) by Dutch car company TNO, seems to be the most advanced and ready to go into production.In the works since 2011, the airbag covers only the lower part of the windshield. This will provide the much needed buffer (缓冲) b etween the person’s head and the pane of glass he/she would otherwise meet.The chain of events leading to an airbag cause are quite simple---A camera fitted beneath the rear-view mirror monitors the vehicle’s closeness to a walker or cyclist. Any contact with either one of them sets off the sensors in the car’s bumper and quickly blows up the airbag. In addition to that the sensors also set off the car’s automatic brake, reducing the chances if an even worse injury.In tests conducted using a model, the success of not getting injured after being hit by a car travelling at about 40km/h was about 50-50! While not perfect, it will still result in reducing the number of deaths by a huge amount.With TNO ready to license its technology to car makers and many more companies trying to develop similar concepts, we would not be surprised if outer airbags becomea standard feature in every car pretty soon.28. Why does the airbag cover the lower part of the windshield?A. To protect the windshield from being destroyed.B. To make the vehicle look beautiful.C. To reduce the weight of walkers.D. To prevent people’s head crashing on the glass.29. The fourth paragraph is mainly about .A. how the airbag worksB. where the airbag is fixedC. why the airbag is safeD. what the airbag is made up of30. The writer thinks the airbag of TNO .A. perfectB. practicalC. expensiveD. useless31. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Airbags are a new standard feature in cars.B. Airbags are much safer for drivers now.C. Airbags are practical for walkers and cyclists.D. Airbags are a solution to higher car accident rates.DAs any plane passenger will confirm, a crying baby is almost impossible to ignore, no matter how hard you try. Now scientists believe they may have worked out why. A baby’s cry pulls at the heartstrings (扣人心弦) in a way while other cries don’t, researchers found.Researchers found that a baby’s cry can trigger unique emotional responses in the brain, making it impossible for us to ignore them---whether we are parents ornot. Other types of cries, including calls of animals in great pain, fail to get the same response---suggesting the brain is programmed to respond specifically to a baby’s cry.A team of Oxford University scientists scanned the brains of 28 men and women as they listened to a variety of calls and cries. After 100 milliseconds, two parts of the brain that respond to emotion lit up. Their response to a baby’s cry was particularly strong. The response was seen in both men and women-even if they had no children.Researcher Dr, Christine Parsons said, “You might read that men should just notice a baby and step over it and not see it, but it’s not true. There is a special processing in men and women, which makes sense from an evolutionary view that both men and women would be responding to these cries,” The study involved people who were not parents, yet they are all responding quickly to these particular cries so this might be a fundamental response present in all of us regardless of parental status.Researcher Katie Young said it may take a bit longer for someone to recognize their own child’s cries because they need to do more “fine-grained analysis”. The team had previously found that our reactions speed up when we hear a baby crying. Adults performed better on computer games when they were played the sound of a baby crying than after they heard recordings of adults crying or high-pitched (高音的) birdsong. The findings could help shed light on post-natal (产后的) depression---where mothers struggle to bond with their newborn---by showing how a healthy brain responds to a baby’s cries.32. A baby’s cry is difficult to ignore because it .A. keeps on cryingB. cries harder than adultsC. causes people great painD. makes people feel strong emotions33. The underlined word “trigger” in Paragraph 2 probably means “‘‘A. removeB. avoidC. causeD. cure34. What may Christine Parsons agree to?A. Almost everyone makes certain response to a baby’s cries.B. A crying baby makes no sense to people without children.C. Men pay less attention to a crying baby than women.D. Parents can hardly recognize their own babies’ cry.35. Computer games are mentioned in the text to show .A. players’ different reactions to a crying babyB. baby’s crying contributes to quicker reactionsC. the influence of baby’s and adul t’s crying on performanceD. it’s hard to keep one’s concentration with a crying baby nearby第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,共10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

AClimbing Without RopesThe popular image of the mountain climber is of a person carefully climbing a steep cliff with a network of safety ropes, but it is not the only kind. Many climbers now enjoy bouldering. It’s more accessible and better for the environment.What is bouldering?Bouldering is a sport that involves climbing on, over, and around boulders up to approximatelytwenty feet above the ground. Participants employ no safety ropes.Why boulder?•improve your climbing skills by focusing on basics•places to climb, such as climbing walls at gyms and parks, easy to find•less time commitment to bouldering than to mountain climbing•intellectual and physical enjoyment as one solves problems Bouldering Termscrimp: a very small handholdfoothold: a place where one may place a foot to aid in climbing boulderjug: a very large handhold that is easy to use problem: The path up a boulder is referred to as the “problem” that one must solve. The “solution” is the sequence of moves one makes up and over a boulder.Here is an example of a climber addressing a bouldering problem.Figure 1: The climber has two routes she could take, one to the left and one to the right. The left one appears easier because it has a jug within easy reach, but look what happens if she chooses that direction. She gets stuck on the rock and has to go back down. Sometimes that is even more difficult than going up.Figure 2: The climber takes the one to the right this time. Using a foothold and placing her right hand in a crimp, she is able to lift herself up and locate other handholds. After only a few moves, she is able to throw her leg over thetop of the boulder and pull herself up.21. Why does bouldering become popular?A. It challenges the limits.B. It costs less.C. It builds minds and bodies.D. It is a team game.22. According to the example, the right route is .A. a shortcutB. a dead endC. tough but to the topD. lined with jugs23. The passage is likely to appear in .A. a book reviewB. a science reportC. a newspaper advertisementD. a sports magazineBOne of the greatest sources of unhappiness, in my experience, is the difficulty we have in accepting things as they are.When we see something we don’t like, we wish it could be different. We cry out for something better. That may be human nature, or perhaps it’s something ingrained(根深蒂固)in our culture. The root of the unhappiness isn’t necessarily that we want things to be different. However, it’s that we decided we didn’t like it in the first place. We’ve judged it as bad, rather than saying, “it’s not bad or good, and it just is it.”In one of my books, I said “You should expect people to mess up and expect things to go differently than you planned.” Some readers said it’s too sorrowful to expect things to go wrong. However, it’s only negative if you see it as negative and judge it as bad. Instead, you could accept it as the way the world works and try to understand whythat is.This can be applied to whatever you do: how other people act at work, how politics works and how depressing the news media can be. Acce pt these things as they are, and try to understand why they’re that way. It will save you a lot of sadness, because you’ll no longer say, “Oh. I wish bad things didn’t happen!”Does it mean you can never change things? Not at all. But change things not bec ause you can’t accept things as they are, but because you enjoy the process of changing, learning and growing.Can we make this world a better place? You can say that you’ll continue to try to do things to help others, to grow as a person, to make a difference in this world. That’s the correct path you choose to take, because you enjoy that path. Therefore, when you find yourself judging and wishing for difference, try a different approach: accept, and understand. It might lead to some interesting results.24. The author believes that we feel unhappy maybe because .A. it is our natural emotion in the lifeB. culture asks us to be different from othersC. everyone has their own opinions on thingsD. we dislike something in the beginning25. What does the underlined word“It” in Paragraph 4 refer to?A. Acting well at work and in politics.B. Feeling depressed for the news media.C. Accepting and understanding what has happened.D. Saying something negative when bad things come.26. What are you advised to do according to the last paragraph?A. Help others make a difference.B. Enjoy what you have to do in the work.C. Judge yourself and make a wish for you.D. Try a new way when making the world better.27. What is the main theme of the passage?A. Expecting things to be different gives us hope.B. Accepting can make our life happier and better.C. Traditional culture becomes root of unhappiness.D. Judging good or bad is important for our world.CWhy do you go to the library? For books, yes-but you like booksbecause they tell stories. You hope to get lost in a story or be transportedinto someone else’s life. At one type o f library, you can do just that-eventhough there’s not a single book.At a Human Library, instead of books, you can “borrow” people. Individuals volunteer as human “books” and participants in the event can “read”the book-meaning they would have a one-on-one conversation with the volunteer and share in a dialogue about that i ndividual’s experience. “Books” are volunteers from all wa lks of life who have experienced discrimination based on race, religion, class, gender identity, age, lifestyle choices, disability and other aspects of their life.For a certain amount of time, you can ask them questions and listen to their stories, which are as fascinating and as attractive as any you can find in a book. Many of the stories have to do with some kind of stereotype. You can speak with a refugee(难民), a soldier suffering from PTSD, a homeless person or a woman living with HIV. The Human Library encourages people to challenge their own long-held beliefs-to truly get to know, and learn from someone they might otherwise make a quick judgment about.According to its website, the Human Library is “a place where difficult questions are expected, app reciated and answered” It provides the opportunity for the community to share and understand the experiences of others in their community.The Human Library Organization came to be in Copenhagen, Denmark in 2000. Ronni Abergel, his brother Dany, and some colleagues hosted a four-day event during a major Northern European festival, hoping to raise awareness about violence among youth. After the success of this event, Abergel founded the Human Library Organization, which has been growing ever since.Though there are a few permanent human libraries, most aren’t places at all, but events. Though many do take place at physical libraries, you don’t need a library card-anyone can come and be part of the experience. There have been human library events all over the globe, in universities and in pubs, from Chicago to Tunis to Edinburgh to San Antonio.The stories these “books” tell range from fascinating to heartbreaking and everything in between. And that’s the very point of the organization-to prove that no person can be summed up in just one word. It seeks to show people that you truly can’t judge a book by its cover-or by its title or label.28. What are the “books” in human libraries?A. Long-held beliefs attracting individuals.B. Inspiring stones motivating people in trouble.C. Events in which people can talk to volunteers.D. Unfairly-treated people sharing their experiences.29. In human libraries, the readers are likely to .A. deepen their understanding of peopleB. enrich their own personal experiencesC. hear the stories from all over the worldD. make quick judgments about the “books”30. The event in Copenhagen is significant because it .A. aimed to help the young suffering from violenceB. attempted to replace traditional physical librariesC. laid a foundation for the Human Library OrganizationD. led to a pleasing development for the community with racism31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. Foundation of a New LibraryB. Sharing of Inspiring StoriesC. “Borrow” People Instead of BooksD. Never Judge a Book by its CoverDThere may come a day when human use robotic parts to enhance our abilities. But long before then, a seemingly opposite thing may take place, with robots being equipped with human tissue or other living cells to make them more lifelike.These “biohybrid” robots could be given muscle cells to help them perform tiny movement. And on a microscopic scale, tiny robots could be combined with bacteria to carry them through the body for precise medical procedures.In a new review of studies, an international group of scientists and engineers described the state of biohybrid robotics - a field that is entering a “deep revolution in both the design principles and constitutive elements(构成要件)” of robots. The review was published in the journal Science Robotics.“In this field, we utilize the functions of living cells in artificial robots to make them perform better, ’’ said leadauthor Leonardo Ricotti of the BioRobotics Institute in Pisa, Italy.Scientist have created robbots of all shapes and sizes with increasing complexity in recent decades. Some robots function well in factories. Robots smaller than a millimeter are being developed to be placed in the body to kill cancer cells or heal wounds.But what’s lacking among all these fascinating robots is the range of fine movement and energy efficiency found in living organisms(生物体).That’s why it’s necessary to combine elements of living organisms with robots, said Ricotti.If robot movement and efficiency are improved, scientists could use them to explore the human body, monitor environments too small for current robots, or manufacture products with greater precision, the authors wrote in the review.There are limits to what these biohybrid robots can achieve, though, Ricotti said. Living cells need to be nourished(滋养), which means that, for now, these robots tend to be short-lived. Also, biohybrid robots can operate only in the temperature range suitable for life.Despite these challenges, Ricotti and his colleagues said, the field of biohybrid robots is rapidly developing from the “art of the possible” to the “reliable manufacturing”.32. What can we learn about “biohybrid” robots from the passage?A. They could be combined with human body.B. They could move in a much more precise way than ordinary robots.C. They are robots specially designed for disabled people.D. They could help to improve the function of human tissue.33. The underlined word “utilize” in the fourth paragraph probably means “”.A. run intoB. take charge ofC. put up withD. make use of34. What factors limit biohybrid robots at present?①Cells can’t stay alive for a long time in robots.②They can’t be completely controlled by human.③They can’t be used in extreme heat or cold.A. ①②B. ②③C. ①③D. ①②③35. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. Great progress has been made in the field of biohybrid robots.B. Biohybrid robots are developing slowly due to their limitations.C. There is a long way to go to turn biohybrid robots into reality.D. The idea of creating “biohybrid robots” has met some challenges.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
