We had the baby boomers of the 1960s, followed by Generation X and then Generation Y, often referred to as millennials, and the new kids on the block are Generation Z - aged between 16 and 22. It's easy to classify these young people as all being the same, sharing the same attitudes towards life—but is that fair?People from Generation Z, informally called "Z-ers", may be viewed by others as digital natives, incapable of real-world friendships. But they actually view themselves as hardworking, ambitious and about to change the world for the better. The previous generation, born between the mid-1980s and late 1990s - the millennials were also thought to have these characteristics. But many people view this new generation as “mini-millennials" because Z-ers are different and they have their own set of values and preferences which consumer brands need to cater for.It's true to say that technology is playing an important part in the lives of Generation Z, particularly in the area of social media. In fact, they have not known life without it and using it to communicate, share ideas and campaign is second nature. It means they have more of a say on what we eat, drink and buy than any generation before them. These young people certainly need to be listened to by retailers （零售商）and businesses - they are the people with time on their hands and money.But being a Z-er comes with pressure. One young person says "Many people in Generation Z have mental health issues because they're unsure what the future will bring." The future always brings uncertainties but maybe there is pressure for this generation to be the most successful ever.4．When was a Z-er likely to be born?A．In 1964. B．In 1975.C．In 1987. D．In 1999.5．What do Z-ers see themselves as?A．Diligent and ambitious. B．Hardworking and incapable. C．Promising and different. D．Stressed and successful.6．What're Paragraphs 2&3 trying to argue?A．Z-ers have known life without social media.B．Z-ers pay too much attention to digital devices.C．Z-ers and the millennials have the same personality.D．Z-ers become a key driving force in the consumer market.7．What docs the author think is the real cause of the Z-ers' pressure?A．Their ambition to be the best.B．Their uncertainty of the future.C．Their addiction to digital devices.D．Their lack of real-world friendship.Every driver is familiar with the horrible blind spot problem. However, it is more than just an annoyance. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, over 840,000 car accidents occur due to the blind spot. Those zones which cannot be directly observed by the driver often causes incidents that result in serious property damage and in some cases even death.While drivers can take precautions such as adjusting the driver's seat and side mirrors properly, installing backup cameras and so on, they won't remove the invisible spots completely. Therefore, the driver will always have to carry the responsibility of being constantly aware of blind spots because failing to do that can lead to accidents.Luckily, now there's a solution to that and it comes from a 14-year-old girl, who doesn't even have a driver's license yet. However, not being able to drive didn't prevent Alaina Gassier from understanding the important issue of traffic accidents resulting from blind spots. In fact, she knows the problem so well that she actually solved it for us. And the way she did it is nothing but genius.Her project is called "Improving Automobile Safety by Removing Blind Spots'* and work in a relatively simple way as she explained: "I did that by having a camera behind the A —pillar of a car and the camera sent the video to a projector that projected (投射)the image onto the pillar essentially making it invisible and making the driver see behind it."To complete this invention, she used easily attainable materials such as a webcam, projector, and 3D-printed materials that project the view from outside your vehicle onto the blind spots of your car.Gassier was awarded for her life-saving invention. It earned her the top place in a nationwide competition for middle schoolers with the $25,000 Samueli Foundation Prize inhonor of overall STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) excellence. 8．Why is the blind spot problem more than an annoyance?A．It is familiar to every driver.B．It cannot be seen by drivers.C．It may cause serious accidents.D．It is often overlooked by drivers.9．What does the underlined word "that" in Paragraph 2 refer to?A．Adjusting the driver's seat. B．Being constantly aware of blind spots. C．Adjusting side mirrors. D．Installing backup cameras. 10．Which of the following statement is wrong?A．Gassier is a student, who can't drive.B．Gassier is talented enough to make the invention.C．Gassier uses easily-accessible materials in her invention.D．Gassier won first place in an international competition.11．What can be the best title for this passage?A．A Great Invention from A Young DriverB．Improving Vehicle Sale by Removing Blind SpotsC．A Girl's Way to Solve the Blind Spot Problem in CarsD．A New Generation of Cars without the Blind Spot ProblemAnyone who commutes（通勤）by car knows that traffic jams are an unavoidable part of life. But humans are not alone in facing potential traffic jam. Ants also commute一between their nest and sources of food. The survival of their colonies（群体）depends on doing this efficiently."The more they are, the more food they're going to bring back. But at the same time, they might end up with traffic jam because there are too many of them.” Sebastien Motsch, a mathematician in Arizona State University said. When humans commute, there's a point at which cars become dense enough to slow down the flow of traffic, causing congestion. Motsch and his colleagues wanted to know if ants on the move could also get blocked. So they control traffic density by constructing bridges of various widths between a colony of Argentine ants and a source of food. Then they waited and watched.The flow of ants did increase initially as ants started to fill the bridge and then stabilize athigh densities. But it never slowed down, even when the bridge was nearly filled with ants. The researchers then took a closer look at how the behavior of individual ants impacted traffic as a whole. That meant cautiously tracking thousands of separate ants as they made their way across the bridge.Motsch and his team found that when ants sense overcrowding, they adjust their speeds and avoid entering high-density areas, which prevents congestion. These behaviors may be made by pheromones （外激素），chemicals that tell other ants where a trail is. The ants also manage to avoid colliding with each other at high densities, which could really slow them down.Can ants help us solve our own traffic problems? Not likely, says Motsch. That's because when it comes to getting from point A to point B as fast as possible, human drivers put their own goals first. Individual ants have to be more cooperative in order to feed the colony. But the research could be useful in bettering traffic flow for self-driving cars, which can be designed to be less like selfish humans一and more like ants.12．What is the purpose of the research?A．To compare humans with ants.B．To see how ants, avoid traffic jam.C．To solve the problem of traffic jam.D．To see whether ants will encounter a traffic jam.13．What did the researchers do before testing the ants?A．They built bridges of different widths.B．They made the ants on the move.C．They watched the ants closely.D．They got the ants blocked.14．What is the result of the research?A．The ants avoid entering high-density areas.B．The ants never stop and no traffic jam happens.C．The ants sense overcrowding and adjust their speed.D．The ants give off chemicals to tell others where they can go.15．What's the researchers' attitude to solving our own traffic jam?A．Optimistic. B．Doubtful.C．Indifferent. D．Supportive.二、七选五With the rise of basic economy and budget airline models that charge extra for seat selection, it's become a lot harder for groups, especially families with kids, to secure seats next to each other.16．.17．. The earlier you book your family's travel, the more likely that you will be able to reserve seats that are next to each other.Contact your airline and ask it to accommodate your family, if you can't initially be seated together. Discuss with the airline your concerns about a child being seated alone.18．, they may be able to assure you that each child is seated next to an adult family member.Check reservations and seat assignments directly with the airline, if you book through a third party online agency.

You may wish to confirm your seat assignments before you would normally go to the airport as your seat assignments could have changed after booking due to an aircraft adjustment with a different seating arrangement.20．. They will do what they can to help families who need to sit together.A．The earlier, the betterB．Book tickets as early as possibleC．Even if the airline is unable to seat the whole family togetherD．Here are some tips to help you sit together without paying extraE.Even though the airline is unwilling to take your concerns into considerationF.If your seat assignments have changed, you can contact the airline to ask for helpG.This can be done either on the website or over the phone by contacting reservations三、完形填空When I was nine, I used to mow the lawn （修剪草坪）for Mrs. Long.

It provides books as gifts．B. It is a charge-free event．C. It runs the shortest hours．D. It is very child-friendly．BI graduated in 1941 and of course got caught in the war．In 1945 I was out，twenty-one years old，a soldier through 35 bombing missions，and at the University of Washington taking creative writing courses，something I'd looked forward to all through the Air Force．I'd started writing when I was nine and writing seemed to be the only thing I'd ever be able or want to do．My teacher was a new man named Grant Redford，a very good short story writing teacher and a sad man．He was from Montana and had beenconnected with theold．I think it became the but I'm not sure and Idon't bother to look it up．I'm afraid I was never much of a student for Redford．My stories were hopelessly self-indulgent（任性的）；on and on about my personal problems，without form，without development，and without even any good writing．However，I did write humor in those days and had no trouble getting it published in the campus magazine，though I'd hate to see it now．Mostly my writing was used to get myself attention，to satisfy a terrible personal interest in self-admiration，and it wasn't until I concentrated all my efforts on poems that I was to realize the only real reward of writing，that special way you feel just when you've done something youlike．That's far more satisfying than seeing your name in print，good reviews，praise or applause after a reading．And more lasting．5.What do we know about the author's childhood？______A.

His S．A．T．scores．B. His high school grades．C. His level of hope．D. His family background．13.The underlined word "concrete" in the third paragraph probably means ______ •A. clearB. pureC. universalD. popular14.What did Dr．Synder say about the old saying "where there's will there's a way"？______A. It is quite realistic．B. It is not inspiring to students．C. It is totally wrong．D. It is not always true in reality．15.What can be the most suitable title for the passage？______A. No pains，no gains．B. Hope emerges as key to success．C. Will gets it going：D. Where there's a will there's a way．二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10.0分）Many people look forward to the holiday season，which provides an opportunity to take a few days off，or go on a getaway．(1) The combined effort of shopping，attending social events，and entertaining guests can quickly become too much to handle．(2) This means you may end up with financial pressure．To prevent stress over money，plan ahead；review your finances，and come up with a practical budget．Purchases shouldn't affect your ability to pay your bills，nor should it result in costly credit card debt．The holiday season is stressful when．you have too much on your plate．(3)You actually needn't cancel your plans，but make sure everything doesn't have to be perfect，and you don't have to do everything yourself- get your family involved．A holiday season is not always an interval of true relaxation：Sometimes it can mean a lot of rushing around with confusion；allowing you no moment alone．(4)Even as little as 15 minutes alone can make a world of difference as you need to take a breather and clear your mind!Being in close quarters with your family members for a long holiday can be stressful in itself．Because of your different personalities，it may be easy to rub each other the wrong way．If you let every remark get under your skin，you'll be stressed out the entire time．(5) Don't let the actions of others rob you of your joy．A．Holidays and expenses go hand in hand．B．So do remember to make time for yourself．C．Set aside your differences and agree to disagree．D．There are a lot of expectations around the holidays．E．But the holiday season can also be a very stressful time．F．You do not actually realize it is a great relief to your tight mood．G．This is especially true if you host family parties for out-of-town guests．16.

They are alone and are often found lying on their bed or sofa, still as a rock, looking searchingly into their laptop or at the TV. They rarely get up, only taking occasional breaks for those urgent calls of nature. Unlike so many others of their species, they don’t sleep at the end of every day. They stay up late and are often found to have red eyes.This, of course, is a little bit exaggerated, but for many of us, binge-watching a show is how we consume our entertainment. With streaming services bringing seemingly endless content to the tips of our finger, creatorstailortheir shows to our needs and tastes, while their marketing team sells it to us as the next most bingeable show. I can’t help but wonder if this way of consuming television does us any good.We’re advised to get 7 to 8 hours of sleep per day, but staying up all night to finish shows like ‘Breaking Bad’ and ‘The Fall’, which Netflix says are binged the fastest, won’t result in 8 hours of uninterrupted sleep. Netflix’s CEO Richard Hastings told analysts at a conference, “Think about it… when you watch a show from Netflix and you get addicted to it, you stay up late at night. We’re competing with sleep.” And it isn’t only the amount of sleep we get; the quality matters too! A study published in the Journal for Clinical Sleep Medicine reported that those who binged television more often were found to have poorer sleep quality. The mental arousal we get from watching TV doesn’t lend itself to peaceful sleep.Besides, binging TV can cause weight gain. For every extra hour of TV watched, there was a 2% increase in the prevalence of obesity, according to a study conducted by Harvard that linked TV watching to obesity in children and adolescents.While it is true that there’s growing evidence that binging isn’t good for us, the results aren’t all hopeless. Binging, occasionally, might have some benefits. For many people, binging is a good way to socialize. It gives people something to talk about at parties and with their friends. Fans of popular shows often hold viewing parties where people can binge-watch shows together and then discuss what they just experienced! This interaction can create a sense of community for many.For others, binging might just be relaxing. After a long day, a few hours of Friends—still one of the most popular shows on any streaming platform—can ease the stress of a long day. A study followed 240 people through their binging and recorded their stress hormones. They noted for some people that their stress hormone levels decreased during their binging experience.With binging, there is not a “good” or “bad” answer. Like many things, the key is moderation. Watching TV can be relaxing, but only if it doesn’t stop you from exercising, taking care of your health, and fulfilling your social responsibilities.4. What does the underlined word “tailor” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. Study.B. Sell.C. Adjust.D. Promote.5. What can we learn from the passage?A. The amount of sleep matters more than the quality.B. There’s no real harm in binge-watching a TV series.C. Binging may help keep stress hormone levels stable.D. Binge-watching may help increase social connections.6. What is the author’s attitude towards binge-watching?A. Supportive.B. Unconcerned.C. ObjectiveD. Doubtful.7. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Who Is to Blame for Binge-Watching?B. Is Binge-Watching Good or Bad for You?C. Is Binge-Watching Getting out of Control?D. HowDoes Binge-Watching Affect Your Life?CThe first patient who died on my watch was an older man with a faulty heart. We tried to slow it down with treatment, but it suddenly stopped beating completely. Later, whenever I would have a case like that one, I found myself second-guessing my clinical management. However, it turns out that thinking twice may actually cause more harm than good.In a working paper, Emory University researchers found that when doctors delivering a baby have a bad result, they are more likely to switch to a different delivery method with the next patient, often unnecessarily and sometimes with worse results.Because doctors make so many decisions that have serious consequences, thefalloutfrom second-guessing appears especially large for us. A 2006 study found that if a patient had a bleed after being prescribed (开药) warfarin, the physician was about 20% less likely to prescribe later patients the blood thinner that prevents strokes(中风). However, if a patient was not on warfarin and had a stroke physicians were still no more likely to prescribe warfarin to their other patients.These findings highlight interesting behavioral patterns in doctors. In the blood-thinner study, doctors were more affected by the act of doing harm (prescribing a blood thinner that ended up hurting doctors were more affected by the act of doing harm(prescribing a blood thinner that ended up hurting a patient) and less affected by letting harm happen (not prescribing a blood thinner and the patient having a stroke). Yet a stroke is often more permanent and damaging than a bleed.But this phenomenon is not unique to medicine. ''Overreaction to Fearsome Risks'' holds true for broader society.For instance, sensational headlines about shark attacks on humans in Florida in 2001 caused a panic and led the state to prohibit shark-feeding expeditions. Yet shark attacks had actually fallen that year and, according to the study, such a change was probably unnecessary given the extremely small risk of such an attack happening.Humans are likely to be influenced by emotional and often irrational (不理性的) thinking when processing information, bad events and mistakes. As much as we don't want to cause an unfortunate event to happen again, we need to be aware that a worst situation that can be imagined doesn't necessarily mean we did anything wrong. When we overthink, we fail to rely on thinking based on what we know or have experienced. Instead, we may involuntarily overanalyze and come to the wrong conclusion.I have treated dozens of patients who presented with the same illnesses as my first patient, who died more than a year ago. Instead of second-guessing myself, I trusted my clinical instinct (本能) and stayed the course. Every one of those patients survived. You should trust your instinct in your life, too.8. The first two paragraphs suggest that________.A. bad medical outcomes affect doctorsB delivering babies can be difficult workC. some doctors are not very experiencedD. doctors sometimes make silly mistakes9. In the blood-thinner study, doctors________.A. tend to prescribe less effective medicineB. are more concerned about the patients' safetyC. become less confident in writing a prescriptionD. believe a stroke is more treatable than a bleeding10. What does the underlined word ''fallout'' in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. ResultB. BenefitC. DifferenceD. Absence11. The author will probably agree that________.A. we should not doubt our own decisionsB. our experience will pave way for our futureC. humans are emotional and irrational on the wholeD. instincts don't necessarily lead to wrong directionsDEvery day in the United States animals are beaten, ignored, or forced to struggle for survival. Left in poor conditions with no food or water, they have little hope as they live out their days without the mercy they deserve. Some are found and rescued, given the chance to experience how great life and humans can be; others aren't so lucky. To grow as a nation, we must fight for these abused(受虐待的) animals’ rights and seriously punish heartless owners.One of the first steps in protecting animals and creating effective cruelty laws is to know what animal cruelty actually is. There are two categories: passive cruelty and active cruelty. The first involves acts of omission, meaning the abuse happens as a result of ignorance or lack of action. Passive cruelty might seem less serious, but that is not the case; it can lead to terrible pain and suffering, and finally death. Examples include starvation, inadequate shelter in extreme weather conditions, and the failure to get medical care. Passive cruelty is sometimes due to the owner's ignorance, so many animal control officers will first try to educate ignorant owners on how to properly care for animals before giving them a citation(传票) or putting them in prison.Active cruelty, on the other hand, is more well-known and disturbing. Sometimes referred to as non-accidental injury, this type of abuse involves purposeful harm on an animal in order to feel more powerful or gain control. Active cruelty against animals should be taken very seriously, since it can be a sign that a person has serious psychological issues and may commit more acts of violence---possibly against humans.It is hard to tell just what drives people to harm innocent animals. Most animal abusers find some sort of achievement or power in torturing a victim that they know can't fight back. While not all animal abusers become serial killers, it is important to take every case seriously.As a nation we need to make it our right to come together and ensure the safety of our beloved pets. As Margaret Mead once said, “Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.”12. What is the first step to do with the passive cruelty abusers?A. To throw them into prison.B. To bring the case to the court.C. To teach them how to treat animals.D. To give them a strong warning.13. We can learn from Para.3 that active cruelty ______.A. is actually a sign of power or controlB. has been taken seriously in the nationC. may lead to serious psychological problemsD. may cause acts of violence against humans14.

2023届四川省绵阳市高三第二次诊断性考试英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解The following list focuses on the top4not-to-be-missed world-class museums,helping tourists explore and experience the best the New York City has to offer.COOPER HEWITT,SMITHSONIAN DESIGN MUSEUMThe Cooper Hewitt,Smithsonian Design Museum(CHSDM)was founded in1897.It is the only museum in the U.S.devoted to historic and contemporary design.Exhibitions feature more than650objects throughout four floors of the building,many of which draw from the museum’s permanent collection of more than210,000objects.Free guided tours are provided from11:30AM to1:30PM on weekdays and1PM to3PM on weekends.MUSEUM OF THE MOVING IMAGEThe Museum of the Moving Image(MOMI)is housed on the original13-acre lot that made up the historic Kaufman Astoria Studios.Lose yourself in the permanent exhibit, Behind the Screen,which introduces visitors to the history of the moving image from19th-century optical(视觉的)toys to today’s digital tools used to edit and produce films.AMERICAN MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORYOne of the world’s largest natural history museums with more than33million exhibits, the AMNH educates and entertains visitors,keeping them busy for hours on end.The museum offers self-guided tours,including one featuring exhibits from the movie,Night at the Museum with Ben Stiller.There are a handful of places to eat inside should the kids get hungry.The kid sleepovers at the AMNH are impressive.NEW-YORK HISTORICAL SOCIETYThe New-York Historical Society(NYHS)was founded in1804as New York’s first museum.The Henry Luce II Center for the Study of American Culture on the fourth floor has been redesigned to showcase The Gallery of Tiffany lamps,displayed in a glass gallery.The Center for Women’s History is the first of its kind in a U.S.museum devoted to this subject.It offers free daily tours at2and3:30PM.1．When can you get free guided tours at the CHSDM?A．At12:30PM Monday.B．At2:30PM Thursday.C．At10:30AM Saturday.D．At11:30AM Sunday.2．Which museum provides special care for children?A．CHSDM B．MOMI.C．AMNH.D．NYHS. 3．What is special about NYHS?A．It has the longest history.B．It focuses on human history.C．It provides free tours all day long.D．It tells the history of the moving image.What are the most sustainable crops to grow for food security?Perhaps,in your growing zones,oranges or peaches win for best fruit crop.Hot,dry climates might call for dates or grapes.For me,growing organic apples is the best.Perhaps that’s because my hometown knows more about growing and preserving apples than any other fruit.Some apples may have worms in them.“It’s not that bad.It’s organic.Just cut the worm out.”I laugh even as I type this.For us,“organic”is how we grow apples,but it does mean carving good fruit away from black worm holes.Modern techniques for growing organic apples include worm traps,fruit barriers,and organic insecticides,like bacterial poisons that only target worms.Wormy apples are just fine for apple juice and jam,Mom says.Cut off the good part and throw it in the pot.Throw the bad part to the chickens.Boil the fruit and put juice into canning jars.Apple jam become pancake topping and the replacement“oil”in recipes—that is,if we don’t eat it directly out of the jar.Apples are now so symbolic to American life that other countries try out the market.When I was younger,I might have laughed at that because of how connected apples and American stories have become,despite the fact that apples aren’t native to North America.But a good friend,after visiting several farms in his motherland Nigeria,showed me photos of Nigerian apples.The skin texture(质地)and color resembled American apples,but they were shaped more like oxheart tomatoes.So even though apples have taken on symbolic significance in America,they can contribute to food security in all kinds of places. 4．What’s the passage mainly about?A．Organic food and modern techniques.B．American and African apples.C．Climate and growing crops.D．Apples and food security.5．What happens to the good parts of wormy apples?A．They are thrown away.B．They are made into apple juice. C．They are sold to customers.D．They are fed to the chickens. 6．What does the author learn from his friend?A．Apples are not native to North America.B．Other countries are also growing apples.C．Apples outside America are ugly-looking.D．People of other countries don’t like apples.7．What can be inferred from the passage?A．America produces the best apples of the world.B．Poisons are no longer used on apples in America.C．The author is proud of apples grown in his hometown.D．Apple juice and jam are actually made from wormy apples.Kjell Inge Roekke is a billionaire owner of an oil company from Norway.As a young man,he was a high school dropout who moved to the US to become an ordinary fisherman. Now he is the tenth-richest man in his country.Worth two billion dollars,he plans to give much of his money away and is starting with cleaning up our oceans.In the Pacific Ocean, there is an island called the Great Pacific Garbage Patch,which is twice the size of the continental United States.It consists of nothing but small pieces of plastic and the dead bodies of sea life and birds.The billionaire is buying a state-of-the-art ship.With the latest equipment on board,the ship will remove five tons of plastic from our oceans daily.Kjell started his business empire building industrial fishing boats.He believes he owes his fortune to the ocean and wants to pay the debt back.“I want to give back to society the majority of what I’ve earned.This ship is a part of it.”said the seagoing man.Managed by the conservation organization WWF,the ship’s mission is to get the poisonous things out of the oceans.It couldn’t come at a better time.Earlier this year a killer whale washed up on a UK shore was poisoned by man-made chemicals.The whale called Lulu was the most poisoned on record.It was20years old and had never reproduced because her body had been badly damaged.Kjell has given WWF complete control of the boat.The conservation organization is not comfortable with the practices of the Norwegian’s oil business.Yet in the struggle to save the environment,unlikely partners must work together.Without the world’s oceans,life on Earth wouldn’t exist.8．What has Kjell decided to do?A．Make our oceans clean again.B．Put an end to his oil business.C．Stop using plastics in his daily life.D．Remove the rubbish with his own hands.9．What does“state-of-the-art”in Paragraph4probably mean?A．Beautiful.B．Advanced.C．Expensive.D．Comfortable. 10．Why is Lulu the whale mentioned in the passage?A．To ask people to help the creature.B．To invite people to join in the effort.C．To stress the consequence of the pollution.D．To draw attention to the Great Pacific Garbage Patch.11．Why does WWF decide to work with Kjell?A．Ocean pollution calls for combined action.B．It is comfortable to work with a billionaire.C．His business is friendly to the environment.D．He has given up control of his newly bought ship.If you are forgetful or make mistakes when in a hurry,a new study from Michigan State University(MSU)found that meditation(冥想)could help you to become less likely to make mistakes.The research,published in Brain Sciences,tested how open monitoring meditation (OMM)changed brain activity in a way that suggests increased error recognition.The findings suggest that different forms of meditation can have different effects.“Some forms of meditation have you focus on a single object,commonly your breath,but OMM is a bit different,”Lin said.“It has you pay attention to everything going on in your mind and body. The goal is to sit quietly and pay close attention to where the mind travels without getting too caught up in the scenery.”Lin and his MSU co-authors—William Eckerle,Ling Peng and Jason Moser—employed more than200participants to test how OMM affected how people detect and respond to errors.The participants,who had never meditated before,were taken through a 20-minute OMM exercise while the researchers measured brain activity through EEG(脑电图).While the meditators didn’t have immediate improvements to actual task performance, the researchers’findings offer a promising window into the potential of sustained meditation.“These findings are a strong demonstration of what just20minutes of meditation can do to enhance the brain’s ability to detect and pay attention to mistakes,”Moser said.“It makes us feel more confident in what meditation might really be capable of for performance and daily functioning right there in the moment.”Looking ahead,Lin said,“The next phase of research will determine whether changes in brain activity can translate to behavioral changes with more long-term practice.It’s great to see the public’s enthusiasm for meditation,but there’s still plenty of work from a scientific viewpoint to be done to understand the benefits it can have,and equally importantly,how it actually works.”12．How does OMM differ from other forms of mediation?A．It fixes your focus on your breath.B．It keeps your mind and body calm.C．It makes you caught up in the scenery.D．It enables you to be aware of everything.13．What does the results of the research show?A．The mediators acquire the habit of meditating regularly.B．The mediators can improve their ability to recognize errors.C．Meditation has an immediate influence on task performance.D．Meditation can increase people’s confidence about themselves.14．What will the research team try to find out next?A．How to monitor brain activity.B．How to sustain meditation practice.C．Meditation’s influence on behavior.D．The public’s response to meditation.15．What can be a suitable title for the text?A．Meditation Helps People Sit QuietlyB．OMM Helps Measure People’s Brain ActivityC．Brain Activity Improves People’s PerformanceD．Meditation May Help People Make Fewer Mistakes二、七选五Everyone at some time feels that their life is going nowhere-and fast.____16____ Nothing can beat living an active,purposeful,successful

Their ambition to be the best．B. Their uncertainty of the future．C. Their addiction to digital devices．D. Their lack of real-world friendship．CEvery driver is familiar with the horrible blind spot problem．However，it is more than just an annoyance．According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration，over 840，000 car accidents occur due to the blind spot．Those zones which cannot be directly observed by the driver often causes incidents that result in serious property damage and in some cases even death．-While drivers can take precautions such as adjusting the driver's seat and side mirrors properly，installing backup cameras and so on，they won't remove the invisible spots completely．Therefore，the driver will always have to carry the responsibility of being constantly aware of blind spots because failing to do that can lead to accidents．Luckily，now there's a solution to that and it comes from a 14-year-old girl，who doesn't even have a driver's license yet．However，not being able to drive didn't prevent Alaina Gassier from understanding the important issue of traffic accidents resulting from blind spots．In fact，she knows the problem so well that she actually solved it for us．And the way she did it is nothing but genius．Her project is called "Improving Automobile Safety by Removing Blind Spots'*and work in a relatively simple way as she explained："I did that by having a camera behind the A - pillar of a car and the camera sent the video to a projector that projected （投射）the image onto thepillar essentially making it invisible and making the driver see behind it．"To complete this invention，she used easily attainable materials such as a webcam，projector，and 3D-printed materials that project the view from outside your vehicle onto the blind spots of your car．Gassier was awarded for her life-saving invention．It earned her the top place in a nationwide competition for middle schoolers with the $25，000 Samueli Foundation Prize in honor of overall STEM （Science，Technology，Engineering，Mathematics）excellence．8.Why is the blind spot problem more than an annoyance______A. It is familiar to every driver．B. It cannot be seen by drivers．C. It may cause serious accidents．D. It is often overlooked by drivers．9.What does the underlined word "that" in Paragraph 2 refer to______A. Adjusting the driver's seat．B. Being constantly aware of blind spots．C. Adjusting side mirrors．D. Installing backup cameras．10.Which of the following statement is wrong______A. Gassier is a student，who can't drive．B. Gassier is talented enough to make the invention．C. Gassier uses easily-accessible materials in her invention．D. Gassier won first place in an international competition．11.What can be the best title for this passage______A. A Great Invention from A Young DriverB. Improving Vehicle Sale by Removing Blind SpotsC. A Girl's Way to Solve the Blind Spot Problem in CarsD. A New Generation of Cars without the Blind Spot ProblemDAnyone who commutes（通勤）by car knows that traffic jams are an unavoidable part of life．But humans are not alone in facing potential traffic jam．Ants also commute一between their nest and sources of food．The survival of their colonies（群体）depends on doing this efficiently．"The more they are，the more food they're going to bring back．But at the same time，they might end up with traffic jam because there are too many of them．" Sebastien Motsch， a mathematician in Arizona State University said．When humans commute，there's a point at which cars become dense enough to slow down the flow of traffic，causing congestion．Motsch and his colleagues wanted to know if ants on the move could also get blocked．So they control traffic density by constructing bridges of various widths between a colony of Argentine ants and a source of food．Then they waited and watched．The flow of ants did increase initially as ants started to fill the bridge and then stabilize at high densities．But it never slowed down，even when the bridge was nearly filled with ants．The researchers then took a closer look at how the behavior of individual ants impacted traffic as a whole．That meant cautiously tracking thousands of separate ants as they made their way across the bridge．Motsch and his team found that when ants sense overcrowding，they adjust their speeds and avoid entering high-density areas，which prevents congestion．These behaviors may be made by pheromones （外激素），chemicals that tell other ants where a trail is．The ants also manageto avoid colliding with each other at high densities，which could really slow them down．Can ants help us solve our own traffic problems？Not likely，says Motsch．That's because when it comes to getting from point A to point B as fast as possible，human drivers put their own goals first．Individual ants have to be more cooperative in order to feed the colony．But the research could be useful in bettering traffic flow for self-driving cars，which can be designed to be less like selfish humans一and more like ants．12.What is the purpose of the research？______A. To compare humans with ants．B. To see how ants，avoid traffic jam．C. To solve the problem of traffic jam．D. To see whether ants will encounter a traffic jam．13.What did the researchers do before testing the ants？______A. They built bridges of different widths．B. They made the ants on the move．C. They watched the ants closely．D. They got the ants blocked．14.What is the result of the research？______A. The ants avoid entering high-density areas．B. The ants never stop and no traffic jam happens．C. The ants sense overcrowding and adjust their speed．D. The ants give off chemicals to tell others where they can go．15.What's the researchers' attitude to solving our own traffic jam？______A. Optimistic．B. Doubtful．C. Indifferent．D.

Soon after, I began to control my eating, considering it another solution to my homesickness. But soon there was something wrong with me.Finally, I went to see a doctor. When the doctor told me I had no choice but to take time away from school, I started to fear. How could I stop? School was what I was best at. “I’m not so bad,” I thought in my head. But the result was that I was taken to hospital again a month later and my mother camewoefully. I had to take a semester off from school, and go to the treatment center near my home.If there are girls who are suffering similarly, I hope you know that there is hope and that you should have a positive attitude towards life.

Australian scientists have managed to extract a gene from a preserved sample of a Tasmanian tiger and make it active. Thebreakthroughhas left them dreaming that one day they will be able to recreate the animal, which died out more than 70 years ago. And if it can be done with the Tasmanian tiger, it may also be possible to resurrect (复活) creatures that have been extinct for far longer.“There used to be a time when extinction meant forever, but no more, ” said Professor Mike Archer. “We are now able to seriously challenge whether those animals that have gone for ever. What has been achieved is a very important step in bringing back those animals that are extinct. And while I think that technically it is still pretty difficult at the moment, we can now see the possibilities. I’m personally convinced that the Tasmanian tiger will be brought back to life in my lifetime.”The breakthrough came after nine years of experiments by scientists at the University of Melbourne, who extracted a gene from one of several tigers preserved in alcohol in a Melbourne museum. They removed the equivalent gene from a mouse embryo implanted the tiger gene and then watched as the mouse continued to grow normally, suggesting the tiger gene had been activated.Team leader Dr. Andrew Pask said it was the first time DNA from an extinct species had been used to “induce (引起) a functional response in another living organism”.However, the animal’s entire gene structure would have to be revived in the same way to even begin the possibility of bringing the Tasmanian tiger back from the dead.Mick Mooney, a wildlife officer ofthe Tasmanian Government, was worried that such developments could encourage people’s indifference to the protection of endangered species.“If people think that we can bring animals back to life after they’ve gone, they will start saying that there is nothing to worry about because we can fix it up later.”12. What does the underlined word “breakthrough” in the l paragraph refer to?A. Scientists have recreated new animals.B. Scientists have resurrected endangered animal.C. It has turned out that some creatures would not go extinct.D. A tiger gene has been extracted successfully and activated.13. Scientists are carrying out the experiments in order to ________.A. bring extinct animals back to lifeB. transplant the genes of tigers into other animalsC. find out what factors lead to the animals’ extinctionD. find a new way to extract animals’ DNA14. Mike Archer thinks that ________.A. scientists now have no technological difficulty reconnecting extinct animalsB. it’ll be a century or so before a Tasmanian tiger walks on the earth againC. humans have come closer in reconnecting extinct animalsD. reconnecting extinct animals is impossible15. We can learn from Mick Mooncy’s words that_________.A. he thought it unnecessary to worry about endangered animalsB. his opinion is in contrast with that of the Tasmanian GovernmentC. he thought people should be encouraged to protect endangered animalsD. he is concerned that bringing extinct animals back to life may have a negative effect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。
