My 17-year-old daughter went off to college and having her away from homebrought back memories of watching Peter Pan when she was little. In theclassic TV production, one scene in particular impressed me: when Mrs Darlingputs her children into bed. As she turns off the last of the night lights, shetakes one last look at the bedroom and says, “Dear night lights, protect mysleeping children.” As a mother, I know how much she loves her children.It has been several weeks since we took our daughter to college and she seemsto be adjusting (适应) well after a short period of homesickness. For us,though, it’s another story. Like most parents, I love checking in on mychildren at night. But now she’s gone, and I find nighttimes the hardest. Imiss her most at night.In my neighborhood, most of the parents whose kids are off to college aredealing with similar melancholy . My husband is filled with anxiety. Onefriend talked about getting this sick feeling in her stomach as she preparedfor the college drop-off. We complained that many of us were too busy to trulyenjoy being with our children while we had them.For us moms, seeing Toy Story 3 only made the sadness worse as we watched thecharacter Andy, who is the same age as our kids, say goodbye to his childhoodas he prepares to leave for college. And it’s not just “first-time” parents like me. Two moms who have kids already well into college said the separationdidn’t get any easier. “You feel like something has been taken away frominside you,” said one of them.I imagine things will get easier with time, especially as I see my daughteradjust to college life. Meanwhile, as I keep my cell phone close to me in bedand text my daughter goodnight and sweet dreams every night, I like to thinkthat messages serve as a night light that keeps her safe.1.The writer was deeply impressed by the scene in Peter Pan because___________.A. she watched the scene with her daughterB. the scene was very exciting and interestingC. the scene taught her and her daughter a good lessonD. the scene showed a mother’s deep love for her children2.After he daughter went to college, the writer ___________.A. didn’t get used to the change for a long timeB. often cried as she missed her daughter so muchC. realized she hadn’t done enough for the daughterD. failed to have a good sleep every night3.What is the underlined word “melancholy” in Paragraph 3 similar in meaning to?A.

Television has turned 88 years old on September 7, 2015, and it has never looked better.In its youth, television was a piece of furniture with a tiny, round screenshowing unclear pictures of low ­ budget programs. In spite of its shortcomings, it became well-received. Between 1950 and 1963, the number of American families with a television jumped from 9% to 92% of the population.As the audience got larger, the technology got better. Television sets became more reliable through the 1960s. Both of the reception and the picture improved. The major networks started broadcasting programs in color.Even greater improvements were coming according to Sanford Brown, who wrote an article for the Post in 1967. Surprisingly, just about every prediction hemade in the article became a reality. For example: All sets in the not ­ distant future will be color instruments. He also predicted that TV sets would become smaller, simpler, more reliable and less expensive and may forever put the TV repairman out of work. Smaller sets do not, of course, mean smaller screens. TV engineers expect screens to get much bigger. However, today's 3­ D TV is even farther away, if it's coming at all. There is some doubtwhether the public would be eager to pay for it, in view of people's coldreception given to 3 ­ D movies.But the technology with the greatest potential, according to Brown, was cabletelevision (有线电视), which was still in its early stages then. As hepredicted, the future of cable television was highly interactive. It wasn'tcable television that gave Americans their electronic connection to the world,however. It was the Internet. He even foresaw the future office: usingpicture phones, big screen televisions for conferences, and computersproviding information, at the touch of a button.Brown ever said, “The future of television is no longer a question of whatwe can invent. It's a question of what we want.”1.What can we infer about television sets in the 1960s?A.They were very popular with Americans.B.The reception showed no improvementC.They showed black ­ -and- ­ white picturesD.They were out of order now and then2.Which of the followings did Sanford Brown fail to predict?A.Television's good quality.B.The invention of 3 ­ -D TV.C.The future office’s modelD.The potential of cable TV.3.What is the text mainly about?A.The shortcomings of television.B.The bright future of television.C.The development of television.D.The invention of television.3.

An environment group called the Food Commission is unhappy and disappointed because of the sales of bottled water from Japan. The water, it angrily arguesin public, has traveled 10,000 “ food miles ” before it reaches Western customers. “Transporting water half-way across the world is surely theextremely stupid use of fuel when there is plenty of water in the UK.” It is also worried that we are wasting our fuel by buying prawns from Indonesia(7,000 food miles) and carrots from South Africa (5,900 food miles).Counting the number of miles traveled by a product is a strange way of tryingto tell the true situation of the environmental damage done by an industry.Most food is transported around the world on container ships that areextremely energy-efficient. It should be noted that a ton of buttertransported 25 miles in a truck to a farmers’ market does not nec essarily use less fuel on its journey than a similar product transported hundreds of milesby sea, Besides, the idea of “food miles” ignores the amount of fuel used inthe production. It is possible to cut down your food miles by buying tomatoesgrown in Britain rather than those grown in Ghana; the difference is that theBritish ones will have been raised in heated greenhouses and the Ghanaian onesin the open sun.What is the idea of “food miles” does provide, however, is the chance tocut out Third World countries from First World food markets. The number ofmiles traveled by our food should, as I see it, be regarded as a sign of thesuccess of the global trade system, not a sign of damage to the environment.1.The Food Commission is angry because it thinks that ___________ .A. UK wastes a lot of money importing food productsB. some imported goods cause environmental damageC. growing certain vegetables damages the environmentD. people waste energy buying food from other countries2.The phrase “food miles” in the passage refers to the distance___________ .A. that a food product travels to a marketB. that a food product travels from one market to anotherC. between UK and other food producing countriesD. between a Third World country and a First World food market3. By comparing tomatoes raised in Britain and in Ghana, the author tries toexplain that ___________ .A. British tomatoes are healthier than Ghanaian onesB. Ghanaian tomatoes taste better than British onesC. cutting down food miles may not necessarily save fuelD. protecting the environment may cost a lot of money4.From the passage we know that the author is most probably ___________ .A. a supporter of free global tradeB. a member of the Food CommissionC. a supporter of First World food marketsD. a member of an energy development group二、其他题5. 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。

Here are the top 4 budget hotels:The Chinatown Inn (About $30 per night)Just a block from the railway station, located in Chinatown’s open market. It has clean beds, central air conditioning, hot water forcoffee and tea, and a hall with a big screen TV. Wi-Fi is good except Floor 5. The guests’ complaint is that the air condition is too cold, so make sure you get a room with a window. You can open it to let some warmth in.Ancasa Express (About $45 per night).The hotel is above the sky-train station. That makes it convenient to get to other parts of the city. From the station, take the elevator to the 5th floor to reach the hotellobby(大厅). The rooms are clean and nice. There is a flat screen TV, the strongest Wi-Fi, and a very hot rainfall shower. The guests’ complaint is that the cafe is only open for breakfast and dinner, and not 24 hours.Central Hotel (About $35 per night)This hotel is just two blocks from the Central Station, which is the heart of all transportation in the city. From Central you can walk 2 blocks to the beautiful Central Hotel, in which rooms are small but clean, and have common Wi-Fi.Ocean 77 (About $25 per night)On Petaling Street in Chinatown, this brand new hotel is most spotlessly clean. There is a flat screen TV and good Wi-Fi in each room. The location is good, in the heart of the Petaling Street market. No cafe in the hotel, but many on the street.1.In the Chinatown Inn you are told to choose a room with a window ________.A.because the light in the room is dimB.so that you can breathe the fresh airC.so that you can let some warm air inD.so that you can have a good view from it2.If a guest likes surfing the Net, which of the following would be his first choice?A.The Chinatown InnB.Central Hotel.C.Ocean 77.D.Ancasa Express3.What is the unusual characteristic of Ocean 77?A.It is the cheapest, newest and cleanest.B.Its location is in the heart of the city.C.It is located in the street in Chinatown.D.There is a flat screen TV and good Wi-Fi.BI don’t think I can recall a time whenI wasn’t aware of the beauty of the ocean. Growing up inAustralia, I had the good fortune of having the sea at my side. The first time I went toHalfmoonBay,I suddenly had the feeling of not being able to feel the ground with my feet anymore.For my 10th birthday, my sister and I were taken out to theGreat Barrier Reef. There were fish in different color1 s, caves and layers of coral. They made such an impression on me. When I learned that only one percent ofAustralia’sCoral Seawas protected, I was shocked. Australian marine (海洋的) life is particularly important because the reefs have more marine species than any other country on earth. But sadly, only 45% of the world’s reefs are considered healthy.This statistic is depressing, so it’s important for usto do everything to protect them. The hope that theCoral Searemains a complete ecosystem has led me to take action. I’ve become involved with the Protect Our Coral Sea activity, which aims to create the largest marine park in the world. It would serve as a place where the ocean’s species will all have a safe place forever.Together, Angus and I created a little video and we hope it will inspire people to be part of the movement. Angus also shares many beautiful childhood memories of the ocean as a young boy, who grew up sailing, admiring the beauty of the ocean, and trying to find the secrets of ocean species.4. What can we learn about the author from the underlined sentence inPara. 1?A. He seldom went surfing at the sea.B. He forgot his experiences about the ocean.C. He never went back to his hometown.D. He had a wonderful impression ofHalfmoonBay.5. What is Australian marine life like according to the second paragraph?A. It is escaping from theCoral Seagradually.B. It depends on reefs for living greatly.C. It may be faced with danger.D. It is protected better than that in other oceans.6. What’s the purpose of The Protect Our Coral Sea activity?A. It is intended to contribute to a complete ecosystem.B. It is intended to prevent more marine species being endangered.C. It is intended to set up a large nature reserve for reefs.D. It is intended to raise more teenagers’ environmental awareness.7. Why do Angus and the author create a little video?A. To urge more people to take action toprotect the marine species.B. To inspire more people to explore the secret of the ocean.C. To share their childhood experiences about the ocean.D. To bring back to people their memory of ocean species.CTourism is often about seeking deeper emotional and personal connections with the world around us. Not all travel experiences, however, need to take place in the real world. With the evolution of virtual reality(VR) technology, tourism will increasingly become a combination of physical and virtual worlds. VR may even remove the need to travel entirely.But can a VR experience really equal a real world one? Many experts believe it can. Studies have shown that our brains have an inbuilt VR-like mechanism that enables us to live imagined experiences. Much of our waking life is spent thinking about either the past or the future. This is known as" mind wandering". During these events we' re not paying attention to the current world around us. Instead, we' re recalling memories, or creating and processing imagined futures.When engaged in mind wandering, our brains process these mental images using the same pathways used to receive inputs from the real world. So, the imagined past or future can create emotions and feelings similar to how we react to everyday life. VR can create these same feelings.While critics might argue that a virtual experience will never match reality, there are several ways VR tourism could make a positive contribution. Firstly it could help protect sensitive locations from over-tourism. In recent years famous sites such as Maya Bay in Thailand, and Cambodia's Angkor Wat Temples have had to limit the number of visitors because of their negative impact. These places are now producing their own VR experiencesthat will allow tourists to pass through virtual models of the sites.Virtual reality may also allow people back in time, to experience historical events, visit ancient cities, and even to walk among dinosaurs.Finally, in a world where many people suffer from stress and depression due to overwork, virtual tourism may provide a cheap and convenient way for people to take brief holidays to otherwise unreachable destinations and recharge their batteries, without ever leaving their homes.It sounds like science fiction but it's already happening. As virtual technology improves and as people continue to demand new and interesting experiences, expect more virtual tourism, both in combination with the real world and instead of it.8. What is driving the development of virtual tourism?A. Companies seeking to make more money.B. Improvements in virtual reality technology.C. People's demand for more shared experiences.D. People's deeper understanding of the physical world.9. Which of the following best describes "mind wandering"?A. The brain processes which help people think VR is real.B. The way the brain processes inputs from the real world.C. Brain activities focusing on past or future events.D. Experiences coming from a person's imagination.10. What does the underlined word "it" in the last paragraph refer to?A. Science fiction.B. Virtual technology.C. Virtual tourism.D. The real world.11. What is the purpose of the passage?A. To describe the advantages of VR tourism.B. To give suggestions for reducing over-tourism.C. To encourage people to develop VR technology.D. To argue VR tourism will replace the real world travel.DSummer is quickly passing by—but not without the ultimate meteor（流星）shower event!The2021 Perseids Meteor Shower, which is considered to be the best meteor shower of the year, is expected to start lighting up skies on this Wednesday, according to NASA. Known for fireballs, the Perseids typically light up skies on warm summer nights, leaving “long wake（尾迹）of light and color1 behind them.”Under ideal conditions, sky watchers may see approximately 50-100 meteors per hour with each meteor traveling at 37 miles per second. .Because the meteors appear in all parts of the sky, it will be pretty easy to witness the celestial（天上的）event from anywhere in the world. To get the best show, it is advised to view the Perseids from the Northern Hemisphere（半球）during the pre- dawn hours, ideally between 2 a.m. and dawn. In some cases, sky gazers may be able to seemeteors during this shower as early as 9 or 10 p. m.“If it's not cloudy, pick an observing spot away from bright lights, lie on your back, and look up! You don't need any special equipment to view the Perseids—just your eyes,” NASA wrote on their site, adding that telescopes or binoculars are not recommended due to their small fields of view.Remember to let your eyes become adjusted to the dark. Try to stay off of your phone too, as looking at devices with bright screens will negatively affect your night vision and thus reduce the number of meteors you see!For those who may be unable to view the Perseids in person, a live broadcast will be streaming from NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center, starting around 8 p. m. on Aug. 11 and continuing through sunrise on Aug. 12.12. What can we learn about the Perseids Meteor Shower?A. It will be the best meteor shower in history.B. The ultimate shower only happens on this Wednesday.C. We can observe 50- 100 meteors per hour in any place.D. The Meteors usually have long and bright trails behind them.13. Which of the following may be the best time to view the shower?A. At 4 a. m. on the Northern Hemisphere.B. At 2 p. m. on the Northern Hemisphere.C. At sunrise on the Southern Hemisphere.D. At dawn on the Southern Hemisphere.14. What can be inferred about the observation of Meteors?A. If you use a telescope, you will see more meteors.B. You can use smartphones to record the grand scene.C. The brighter the moon is, the more meteors you can see. .D. Bright lights will reduce the visibility of meteors.15. If you are not available to watch the Perseids personally, you can ________.A. browse the unofficial website of NASAB. watch a video recorded by a flight centerC. stream a live show on Aug. 11 nightD. use special devices to connect with the shower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。

He looks exhausted and carries nothing.He appears along a downtown street, seemingly out of nowhere.We sometimeswant to know where he sleeps at night.A few weeks ago he boarded the bus. A few stops later, a young woman boarded. She swiped (刷) her bus-card, only to find the machine would not accept it. The driver told her to pay the $2.25 fare. “I just bought this card,” she said. “I paid the money...”The driver said she could take the card back to the sales office and explain the problem. In the meantime she would have to pay the fare for that day. The woman became confused anddistressed. The rest of us just watched, wondering how the problem would be solved. Suddenly the man rose from his seat, dropped a few coins into the fare box.“You’re lucky,” the bus driver said quietly. “He paid for you.” Silence fell over the bus.

2019-2020学年吉林市实验中学高三英语第三次联考试卷及参考答案第一部分阅读（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30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ASevenhugs HugOneDo you want to improve the quality of your sleep? Sevenhugs has created HugOne that tracks different sleep patterns to help families consistently rest better. There are dozens of devices and tools devoted to monitoring the sleep. But, HugOne is the world’s first family smart home sleep system, which integrates a calculation rule for sleep patterns of children and adults.HugOne is a well-designed product, full of a sense of science and technology. It connects to a number of smaller sensors called “minihugs”, which are placed on the edge of each bed. They monitor the sleep patterns and other data coming from the person sleeping in that bed. The data arethen sent to an app on the smartphone.● The benefits of HugOne include:* Having a smart alarm clock on the app as HugOne learns your sleep cycle and automatically sets and sounds to when the best moment in your sleep cycle is identified.* Monitoring temperature and humidity in your bedroom as well as indoor air quality for the main living space.* Linking with smart lamps and thermostats, allowing users to fall asleep with sunset light and preferred nighttime temperatures, and wake up to sunrise light and preferred daytime temperatures.* Ensuring safety from electronic transmissions when you sleep-when the minihug senses a presence in bed, it shuts off its electronic transmissions and starts recording sleep data and sending them to the app.● The following are selected from customers’ comments:I prefer HugOne, since it’s convenient to use. I simply place the minihug in the corner of my bed under the sheet and it goes to work monitoring my sleep cycle. It’s really good.—Robert Compton● HugOne available for purchase includes:I think HugOne is a humanized product. It’s shareable, and I’ve connected eight minihugs to the HugOne base in my house. All my family members think highly of it.—Chris HanawaltHugOne will provide maximum protection for your sleep. If you want to get more detailed information, please call the sellers at 1-800-576-1899 or .Style: Sleep Tracking System＋2 Sleep SensorsColour: Blue＋Rose1. How does HugOne effectively work?A. It controls sleep patterns automatically.B. It creates smart systems for a better sleep.C. It collects sleep data through the minihugs.D. It makes a calculation of the data sensors need.2. According to the passage, HugOne can ______.A. adjust temperature, humidity and air quality in bedroomsB. update the sleep cycles by aid of an alarm clock on the appC. record sleep data when there are electronic transmissions in bedD. help users fall asleep and wake up naturally with preferred temperatures3. The passage is made more believable by ______.A. providing statisticsB. drawing a comparisonC. giving a demonstrationD. using recommendationsBByteDance（字节跳动）Group’s TikTok, an overseas version of Chinese short video sharing app Douyin, faces an existential crisis in the United States, as murmurs of a “crackdown”（强制取缔）from the White House forced the Chinese company toengage in talks on selling its US business to Microsoft.TikTok is the fastest-growing registered global mobile internet app, with more than 100 million users, and its rapid growth, especially in the US, is seen as a threat to Facebook. The US government has long viewed globally competitive Chinese high-tech companies including Huawei as a threat and done whatever it could to crack down on（打击）them in the name of “national security”.The US government has not introduced any specific policy against TikTok only threatened it through a number of unclear statements.According to the latest media reports, Microsoft is prepared to press ahead withthe negotiations to take over TikTok’s US operations and complete the negotiations by Sept 15, following talks between Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella and US President Donald Trump.This means that TikTok will have to hand its fate over to some unpredictable power, and even have to sell its assets without the option of setting a price.The US government has failed to find a reasonable legal excuse to deal with TikTok. All private data of TikTok’s US users are stored in the US and are unlikely to be transferred. Considering the US government is trying to deal with TikTok in a political way, TikTok should consider incorporating（合并）the dispute into the US legal process to assert（坚持）its legal rights and interests.TiKTok’s core value lies in its unique algorithms,a product of artificial intelligence that represents the expertise of Chinese engineers and programmers with high-value intellectual property.The US government’s move, which has forced ByteDance to sell TikTok to a US company, is similar to a forced technology transfer and an example of the US’ openseizureof Chinese intellectual property.If ByteDance sells TikTok to a US company for “security reasons", that would set a dangerous precedent, motivating other countries where TikTok operates to follow the US administration's example and cause a chain reaction.ByteDance is a young Chinese private company that cannot deal with a political game played by the US. But as a Chinese company that has gone global, ByteDance has reasons to take up legal means to defend its legal rights. The Chinese government can also consider examining whether the technology transfer in the deal violates China’s law and harms the country’s national interests.4. What is the most valuable as for TikTok?A. Its global popularity.B. Its artificial intelligence.C. Its registered global mobile internet app.D. Its private data of TikTok’s worldwide users.5. Why does the American government force the Chinese company to hand over TikTok’s US operations to a US company?A. Out of so-called political reasons.B. Out of so-called debt reasons.C. Out of so-called technical reasons.D. Out of so-called security reasons.6. What does the underlined word “seizure”probably mean in Para. 8?A. An untrue spoken statement about someone.B. The use of legal authority to take sth from sb.C. The crime of stealing sth from a person or place.D. The act of trying to hurt somebody using physical violence.7. What can be the best title for the news report?A. TikTok must defend its rights legallyB. TikTok is seen as a threat to FacebookC. ByteDance has to sell TikTok to a US companyD. ByteDance agrees to transfer technologyCAlex Wong, a junior atMarkKeppelHigh SchoolinAlhambra,California, is working hard on his application to a top college. His resume shows off his nearly straight A’s in difficult classes, experience at a summer program atStanfordUniversity, Eagle Scout project and time on the soccer team as well as the school choir. But his steady progress stopped unexpectedly this year. Aiming to open access to college-level Advanced Placement (大学预科) courses, his schoolbegan using a computer-based lottery to give out spaces. Alex got shut out of all three of the courses he requested.The new system caused anger among families whose children failed to get into AP courses, which many consider important to develop advanced skills, improve grade-point averages and allow students to earn college credit, saving them and their families tuition dollars. Students and parents wrote to administrators to complain, circulated a petition (请愿) and launched a Facebook group for trading classes. “I’M DESPERATE! I’LL GIVE YOU FREE FOOD,” one student, Kirk Hum, posted on the 210-member AP Flea Market Facebook group.AP classes have long been held dear by the most talented and ambitious students.But now they are seen as positive for all students who are willing to push themselves – and schools are increasingly viewing access to them as a basic educational right. But this change has brought challenges.Miracle Vitangcol, a junior atDowntownMagnetsHigh Schoolwith average grades and test scores, is failing her AP US history class. She said she can’t handle the rapid pace and volume of material she needs to remember. But she said she intends to stick it out because the class is teaching her to manage her time, take good notes and work hard. “I’m struggling to adjust,” she said. “But I keep telling myself: ‘It’s OK. You can do it. Just push yourself’.”Some critics worry that the open-access movement is pushing too many unprepared students into AP classes, as shown by higher exam failure rates over the last decade. They also fear that open enrollment (录取) policies are encouraging teachers to weaken courses and give out high grades to students who don’t deserve them. “While expanding access is generally a good thing, we need to make sure we’re not watering down the experience for the high achievers,” said Michael Petrilli, executive vice president of the Thomas B. Fordham Institute, aWashington-based educational policy organization.8. The purpose of the new AP courses system at Alex Wong’s school is to ______.A. make sure all students get access to the AP courses they desire.B. ensure that students have a fair chance to get access to AP courses.C. improve the academic performance of students in AP courses.D. separate high achievers from average students through the new courses.9. According to the article, the AP Flea Market Facebook group is a place where ______.A. students’ parents send their complaints to school administrators.B. students share tips about saving money for college.C. students offer items to trade for the AP courses they need.D. students can find support and guidance on their AP study.10. Which of the following statements would Michael Petrilli agree with?A. Opening AP courses to all students is a bad idea.B. School administrators should maintain high academic standards for AP courses.C. High schools should stop charging students for taking AP courses.D. Access to AP courses is necessary for students applying for top American colleges.11. The author used Miracle Vitangcol’s example to show that ______.A. students need to remember too much in their AP courses.B.AP courses pose a big challenge to unprepared students.C. the secret to success in AP courses is to keep pushing yourself.D. average students don’t deserve their places in AP courses.DEarthquakes are a natural disaster—except when they're man-made. The oil and gas industry has forcefully used the technique known as hydraulic fracturing (水力压裂法) to destroy sub-surface rock and liberate the oil and gas hiding there. But the process results in large amounts of chemical-filled waste water. Horizontal drilling (水平钻孔) for oil can also produce large amount of natural, unwanted salt water. The industry deals with this waste water by pumping it into deep wells.On Monday, the US Geological Survey published for the first time an earthquake disaster map covering both natural and “induced” quakes. The map and a report show that parts of the central United States now face a ground-shaking disaster equal to the famously unstable terrain (不稳定地形) of California.Some 7 million people live in places easily attacked by these man-made quakes, the USGS said The list of places at highest risk of man-made earthquakes includes Oklahoma, Kansas, Texas, Arkansas, Colorado, New Mexico, Ohio and Alabama. Most of these earthquakes are ly small, in the range of magnitude (震级) 3, but some have been more powerful, including a magnitude 5.6 earthquake in 2011 in Oklahoma that was connected to waste water filling.Scientists said they do not know ifthere is an upper limit on the magnitude of man-made earthquakes; this is an area of active research Oklahoma has had prehistoric earthquakes as powerful as magnitude 7.It's not immediately clear whether this new research will change industry practices, or even whether it will surprise anyone in the areas of newly supposed danger. In Oklahoma, for example, the natural rate of earthquakes is only one or two a year, but there have been hundreds since hydraulic fracturing and horizontal drilling, with the waste water filling, became common in the last ten years.12. What kind of human activities can cause earthquakes?A. The man-made produced waste water in the factories.B. The process of digging deep wells in those poor areas.C. The advanced techniques used to deal with waste water.D. The oil or gas industry's work connected with the earth.13. What does the underlined word “induced” in paragraph 2 mean?A. Man-made.B. Reduced.C. Newly-built.D. Controlled.14. How much magnitude can man-made earthquakes reach?A. It's been said as small as magnitude 3.B. It has been said as high as magnitude 7.C. It's being studied without a final conclusion.D. It has risen by an average of magnitude 5. 6.15. What is the best title for the text?A. Natural Earthquakes in America Are Disappearing NowB. 7 Million Americans at Risk of Man-Made EarthquakesC. Time for Oil and Gas Industry Change Their Working PracticeD. More Often Earthquakes as Powerful as Magnitude 7 in America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。

train is right on time ．I feel pleasantly satisfied as I look out at the rush hour traffic on the motorway ．I feel more satisfied as the smell of fresh coffee announces the arrival of thedrinks service ．Swiss friends often tell me ，proudly ，that their rail service is the best in the world ，but recently ，one experience has proved that the great Swiss love affair with their railway has turned a little sour ．It all began with the decision to end ticket sales on trains ．One cold morning Iarrived at my local station only to find that the ticket machine was broken ．No matter ，I thought ，I have got a smart phone ，and I hurriedly set about buying my ticket that way．This was not as easy as I had expected ，busying myself between credit card and phone with freezing cold fingers ，but ，by the time I got on the train to Geneva I had ane﹣t icket and I proudly showed it to the conductor ．Unfortunately she told me that my ticket was not valid （有效的）．Several weeks later a letter arrived from Swiss railways together with a fine for 190 francs （﹩210）．The good people there tell me the formal payment for my ticket from my credit card company arrived four minutes after my train left the station ．That means ，they say ，that I bought my ticket on the train﹣a nd that is strictly prohibited ．Swiss railways say their policy is designed to protect honest ticket﹣p aying passengers，but a quick look at their balance sheet suggests something else．The company is making about﹩2 million a month from fines ．Although train travel is still popular ，those seats do not feel as comfortable ；the coffee does not smell quite so good﹣b ecause Swiss railways have lost ，for now anyway，something far more precious than﹩2 million a month ：good relations withtheir customers ．（1）What can we learn from paragraph 1 ？A．The Swiss trains usually come late ．B．Traffic on the motorway goes smoothly ．C．The author hates traveling on the Swiss train ．D．The author is generally pleased with the Swiss rail service ．t icket was invalid ？（2）Why did the conductor say that the author's e﹣A．It was purchased online ．B．It was paid for after the train's departure ．C．It was purchased on a ticket machine ．D．It was paid on a smart phone ．（3）What does the author want to show by telling the experience ？A．The fine was unfair ．B．The conductor was impolite ．C．E﹣tickets are getting popular ．D．Credit cards can be inconvenient ．（4）What does the author think of the new policy of Swiss railways ？A．It attracts more people to travel by train ．B．It makes the company lose a lot of money ．C．It damages company ﹣customer relations ．D．It protects honest ticket ﹣paying passengers ．13．（8 分）For the last few months ，I have given up what was previously one of my favorite foods ：beef ．Eating less red meat and be healthier ，better for the environment and ﹣surprisingly to me ﹣really easy to do so ．Sometimes it seems like much of our food is stuck in a cycle of excessive （过度的）production and excessive consumption ．Meat consumption today contributes to global warming and environmental degradation （退化）．It's estimated that 14.5% of global man ﹣made greenhouse gas emission （排放）come from livestock （家畜）﹣which is more than the contribution from all forms of transport ．Beef production makes up 41% of those emissions ．Last year，Brazil reported a 28% increase in Amazonian deforestation （森林采伐）﹣80% of deforested land in Brazil is then used for cattle farming ．Modern beef farming is also a huge drain （流干）on water resources ．But it is possible to change ．Reducing meat consumption is a growing trend ，driven by health and environmental considerations ． A switch to a "healthy diet" as recommended by Harvard Medical School ﹣which still includes eating meat ，fish and eggs ﹣would reduce greenhouse gas emissions from food production by 36% ．The Norwegian military announced it is switching a one ﹣day to a one ﹣week vegetarian diet in a move against global warming ，while even in the US consumption of red ﹣meat is falling ．And as for yours truly ，I feel healthier ，more active and by making my diet more varied I never feel like I am missing out on anything ．Stopping eating beef has also had a knock ﹣on effect on the rest of my diet ，and I am eating less ．Cattle and other livestock don't have to be environmentally harmful ．Grass﹣fed cattle need much smaller resourceinput ．And as it has been shown ，livestock ，if managed properly ，can even restore degraded land ．In the longer term ，as Bill Gates highlighted ，there is also great potential for advance in fields like synthetic （合成）meat ．And there are other more sources of efficient protein ；like insects! But in a world where more people are now dying fromobesity than malnutrition （营养不良）﹣when hundreds of millions of people still don't have enough to eat，we can't solve this problem by simply continuing to make "conventional" intensive farming more intensive ．（1）Why has the author given up eating beef ？A．It is better for his health and global warming ．B．It can prevent him from being obesity ．C．It is better for both health and environment ．D．He likes vegetarian diet very much ．（2）What result does cattle farming lead to ？A．The loss of deforestation ．B．The great loss of water resources ．C．The loss of man ﹣made greenhouse ．D．The loss of livestock ．（3）What's the author's attitude towards raising some livestock in an environmental way？A．Negative ．B．Doubtful ．C．Favorable ．D．Protective（4）In Bill Gates' opinion ，we can get efficient protein by ．A．raising more insectsB．raising more cattleC．developing man ﹣made meatD．developing intensive farming14．（8 分）Using a mobile phone for more than 10 years increases the risk of getting brain cancer，according to the most comprehensive study of the risks yet published ．The study ﹣which is different from official statements that there is no danger of getting the disease ﹣found that people who have had the phones for a decade or more are twice as likely to get a malignant tumour （恶性肿瘤）on the side of the brain where they hold the handset ．The scientists who conducted the research say using a mobile for just an hour every working day during that period is enough to increase the risk ﹣and that the international standard used to protect users from the radiation is "not safe" and "needs tobe revised" ．They concluded that "caution （警告）is needed in the use of mobile phones" and believe children should be discouraged from using them at all ．Britain's largest investigation into the health risks of the technology ，the Mobile Telecommunications and Health Research （MTHR ）programme ﹣founded by "government and industry sources" ﹣reported that "mobile phones have not been found to be associated with any biological or harmful health effects" ．But its chairman ，Professor Lawrie Challis ，admitted that only a small percentage of the research had covered people who had used the phones for more than a decade ．He warned ，"We cannot rule out the possibility at this stage that cancer could appear in afew years' time ．"The new study ﹣headed by two Swedes ，Professor Lennart Hardell of the University Hospital in Orebro and Professor Kjell Hansson Mild of Umea University ，who also serves on the MTHR programme's management committee ﹣goes some way to meeting the deficiency （缺陷）．The scientists pulled together the results of the 11 studies that have so far investigated the occurrence of tumours in people who have used phones for more than adecade ，using research in Sweden ，Denmark ，Finland ，Japan，Germany ，the United States and Britain ．They found almost all had discovered an increased risk ，especially on the side of the head where people listened to their handsets ．Five of the six studies of malignant tumour found an increased risk ，and only onedid not still found an increase in benign （良性的）tumour ．Four of the five studies that looked at acoustic neuromas （听神经肿瘤）found them ．The exception was based on only two cases of the disease ，but still found that longterm users had larger tumoursthan other people ．The scientists put the findings of all the studies together to analyse them ．This showed that people who have used their phones for a decade or more are 20 percentmore likely to contract acoustic neuromas ，and 30 percent more likely to get malignant gliomas （胶质瘤）．The risk is even greater on the side of the head the handset is used ：longterm users were twice as likely to get the gliomas ，and two and a half times more likely to get the acoustic neuromas there than other people ．The scientists conclude ，"Results from present studies on use of mobile phones for more than 10 years give a consistent pattern of an increased risk for acoustic neuromaand glioma ．" They add that "an increased risk for other types of brain tumours cannot beruled out" ．（1）The new study headed by the two Swedes ．A．corrected the absence in the MTHR programme's managementB．came to a conclusion similar to that of MTHR's investigationC．ruled out the possibility that longtime users could get brain cancerD．made some improvements by expanding the investigation samples（2）The passage tries to tell us that ．A．using mobile phones is dangerous to people's healthB．children should be forbidden to use mobile phonesC．people using mobile phones an hour every working day will get brain cancerD．the more people use mobile phones ，the more likely they are to get brain cancer （3）The underlined word "contract" in Paragraph 10 probably means " "．A．be infected withB．be associated withC．be faced withD．be covered with（4）The best title of the passage is ．A．The Causes of Brain CancerB．The Hidden Danger of Mobile PhonesC．The Research of Brain CancerD．The Effects of Mobile Phones第二节（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．选项中有两项为多余选项．15．（10 分）Helen Keller once wrote ，"The unselfish effort to bring cheer to others will be the beginning of a happier life for ourselves ．" （1）The UN has set December5 as International Volunteers Day to give recognition to these people ．Nineteen ﹣year ﹣old Andrew Makhoul was a communications major at the University of Pennsylvania ．It was coming up to spring break ，but unlike his classmates ，Makhoul wasn't planning on spending the break relaxing ．（2）He traveled to Guatemala ．He went to an orphanage （孤儿院）in one of the most violent and poor parts of Guatemala city ．（3）Although he didn't speak much Spanish，he found communication wasn't a problem ："You communicated with love ．"And what he gave out ，he got back ："You could see love when you looked in their eyes．"Makhoul's first time as a volunteer only lasted a week ，but by the end of that week ，he knew he'd be back in the future ．（4）The UN highlighted the case of Palestinian women who are survivors of breast cancer ．As part of the UN's Aid and Hope Programme for Patient Care ，the women have been volunteering their time to create low ﹣cost breast prosthetics （假体）to be distributed to women for free ，among whom Shahd El﹣Swerki is a brilliant example ．（5）By the end of her time there ，she admired these women who are "not only survivors but also volunteers" ．About 2 ，400 years ago ，Greek philosopher Aristotle said ，"The essence （本质）of life is to serve others and do good ．" Volunteers all around the world are making these words come true ，each and every day ．A．It depends upon volunteers to stay open ．B．She worked with the women as part of the programme ．C．Here，we tell two volunteering stories from around the globe ．D．Sometimes ，volunteers themselves live with huge challenges ．E．He decided to spend his time doing something useful for people ．F．Volunteers want to do their best to make the world warmer and

So when her teacher Andrea Smeetonreceived information about the national challenge, Smeeton said sheimmediately had one student in mind.“I knew she would love the challenge and that she would go way beyond in her research," Smeeton said.“She immediately started researching bone density (密度) of astronauts and how to have food on Mars."“My design will ensure the safety of the astronauts but also make sure their comfort is outof this world," Dobek says.Dobek's design calls for building the MSS or Mars Storage Station to put the supplies in. It also includes the SGF or Self-Growing Farm, and she details how it would work with the elements on Mars.Then there is physical and leisure activity for the astronauts under Dobek's design, A simulator (模拟装置) allows astronauts to choose their exercise machine and virtual (虚拟的) reality environment. Rooms have circular ceilings so astronauts will be able to watch downloaded shows and even see places on Earth, such as their homes.“I want to tell other kids to follow their passions," Dobek said.“Whatever they wa nt to do,they should push for it and always try their best.”25.

To help the children of poo families, a nationwideprogram called "Headstart" was started in the US in 1965. A lot of money was poured into it. It took children into pre-school institutions at the age of three and was supposed to help them succeed in school. But the results were disappointing, because the children who entered it atthree were already behind their peers in language and intelligence and the parents were not involved in the process. At the end of each day,“Headstart" children returned to the same disadvantaged home environment.To improve the results, another program was started in Missouri that focused on parents as the child's first teachers. This program was based on research showing that working with the family is the most effective way of helping children get the best possible start in life. The four-year study included 380 families who were about to have their first child and represented different socio-economic status, age and family structure. The program involved trained educators visiting and working with the parent or parents and the child. The program also gave the parents some guidance and useful skills on child development.At three, the children in the "Missouri”program were evaluated with the children from the same socio-economic backgrounds and family situations. The results were obvious. The children in the program were more advanced in langu age development, problem solving and other intellectual skills thantheir peers. They performed equally well regardless of socio-economic backgrounds or family structure. The one factor that was found to affect the child's development was the poor quality of parent-child interaction. That interaction was not necessarily bad in poorer families.The“Missouri”program compares quite distinctly with the "Headstart”program. Without a similar focus on parent education and on the vital importance of the first three years, some evidence indicates that it will not be enough to overcome educational unfairness.28. What contributes to the failure of the "Headstart” program ?A. The parents were not included in it.B. The program was started too late.C. Only the children of poor families took part in itD. The government didn't provide enough money for it.29. What do we know about the“Missouri" program?A. It focused on the children from poor families.B. It helped the children return to the sane home.C. It made the children improved in many aspects.D. It gave some advice on parents development.30. According to the passage what is likely to influence children's performanceA. The number of family members.B. The teacher-student relationship.c The economic condition oft heir parentsD.The parent-child interaction.31. How does the author develop the passage?A. By listing figuresB. By making comparisons.,C. By presenting ideas.D. By drawing conclusions.DWilliam I, who conquered England some 930 years ago, had wealth, power and an ams flush ret although William was very rich by the standard of his time, he had nothing like a toilet (抽水马桶)，paper towels, or riding lawn mower (除草机). How did he get by?History books are filled with wealthy people who were poor compared to me. I have stoum windows,Croesus did not. Entirenations trembled before Alexander the Great, but he couldn buy cat food.Czar Nicholas lacked an electric saw.Given how much better off I am than so many famous dead people, you'd think I'd be Content. The trouble is that, like most people, I compare my wealth with that of living persons:neighb ors, school classmates, famous TV people. The greed I feel tow ard my friend Howard S new kitchen is not reduced by the fact t hat no kings ever had a refrigerator with glass doors.There is really no rising or falling standard of living. Over the centuries people simply find different things to feel sad about. You'd think that simply not having disease would put us in a good mood, but no, we want a hot bath too.Of course, one way to achieve happiness would be to realize that even by today's standards the things I own are pretty nice. My house is smaller than the houses of many investment bankers, but even so it has a lot more rooms than my wife and I can keep clean.Besides, to people looking back at our era from a century or two in the future, these bankers fancy counter tops and my own worn Formica will seem equally shabby. I can't keep up with my neighbors right now. But just wait.32. ,What does the underlined phrase“get by"”in the first paragr aph mean?A. Succeed as a king.B. Deal with complaints.C. Get the money needed.D. Live in a satisfactory way.33. How many historical figures are mentioned to compare lives in the past and present?A.3.B.4.C.5.D.6.34. According to the passage, the author intends toA. tell us to be content with lifeB. warn us to live in a simple wayC. teach us to learm lessons from lifeD. encourage US to struggle for wealth35. What's the author's ttitude towards life?A. Doubtful.B. OptimisticC. Cautious.D. Negative.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。

It has also entered international organizations of civil aviation, maritime affairs, search and rescue satellites and mobile communication.BDS-based services have been successfully applied in land mapping, precision farming, digital development and smart port construction in member countries of ASEAN, South Asia, Eastern Europe, West Asia and Africa.1. What can we learn from this passage?A. The total number of 5G phones has reached a new level.B. Kunlong, unlike SH-5, is not just for military purposes.C. Technologies mentioned above need more cooperation with others.D. BDS-based services have been provided for users in many countries.2.

If your friend did a course in marketing management, he may choose a job in a ________.A. 5G technology related marketB. large amphibious aircraftC. BDS-based projectD. China Satellite Navigation OfficeBIs renting clothes greener than buying them? Sustainable (可持续的) fashion expert Elizabeth Cline isn’t sure. Clothing renting is a hot new industry and businessmen are trying to attract shoppers who care about the environment. Last summer alone,Urban Outfitters, Macy’s, Bloomingdale’s American EagleandBanana Republicall announced renting services – a sure sign of changing times.But is renting fashion actually more environmentally-friendly than buying it? And if so, how much more? Journalist and author Elizabeth Cline researched this question in a feature article for Elle, and she concluded that it’s not as sustainable as it seems.Take shipping for example, which has to go two ways if an item is rented – receiving and returning. Cline writes that consumer transportation has the second largest carbon footprint of our collective fashion habit after manufacturing.Then there’s the burden of washing, which has to happen for every item when it’s returned, regardless of whether or not it was worn. For most renting services, this usually means dry-cleaning, which is a polluting process. All the renting services that Cline looked into have replaced perchloroethylene, a carcinogenic (致癌的) air pollutants that’s still used by 70 percent of US dry cleaners, with hydrocarbon (碳氢化合物) alternatives, although these aren’t great either. They can produce harmful waste and air pollution if not handled correctly.Lastly, Cline fears that renting services will increase our appetite for fast fashion, simply because it’s so easily accessible. There’s something called “share-washing” that makes people have more wasteful behaviors because a product or service is shared and thus is considered more eco-friendly. Uber is one example of this: advertised as a way to share rides and reduce car ownership, and yet it has been proven to discourage walking, bicycling andpublic transportation use.Renting clothes is still preferable to buying them cheap and throwing them into the bin after wearing them a few times, but we shouldn’t let the availability of these services make us self-satisfied. There’s an even better step – and that’s wearing what we already have.4. What do we know about Elizabeth Cline from the passage?A. She is trying to attract shoppers.B. She is an expert and journalist.C. She has created “share-washing”.D. She never rents clothes.5. Why does renting services increase people’s appetite for fast fashion?A. Because it is handled correctly.B. Because it is transported easily.C. Because it is fairly eco-friendly.D. Because it is easily accessible.6. What can we infer from the passage?A. Clothing renting became popular ten years ago.B. Consumer transportation has the largest carbon footprint.C. Renting clothes deserves further consideration.D. Uber is a good example of sharing rides.7. Which section of a newspaper does the text probably come from?A. Environment.B. Technology.C. Travel.D. Medicine.CAs a 51-year-old first-aid responder since 1984, Jeffrey never knows what type of situation he might walk into, or who he'll meet along the wayTen years into the job, Jeffrey received a call that reported that a man in his early 30s had fallen down in the Mall of America. When Jeffrey and his partner arrived at the scene, they found the young male face down on the ground. He had gone unconscious, making weak attempts to breathe. His wife stood beside him holding their small son in horror. They quickly rushed to calm the man to keep him under control and offer necessary first aid. After Jeffrey dropped the patient off at the neighboring hospital, he thought about the man and his family for a long time.Jeffrey thought he had experienced everything under the sun until one random visit to Office Max three years ago, where he met a man repeatedly walking back and forth while staring at him. As it turned out, the man was the patient he had saved 20 years earlier."You gave me 20 years more than I ever thought I'd have," the man said. He thanked Jeffrey repeatedly and told him he had someone he wanted him to meet. He stepped around the corner and reappeared with a 20-something-year-old man. Jeffrey instantly knew that it was the son he had seen standing by his mother all those years ago"That day changed my life," Jeffrey said. "Before that, everything was about work…When I talk to my beginner-training class, I tell them you never know the effect you can have on someone's life."8. What did Jeffrey do with the young man?A. He cured the man at the scene.B. He took care of the man's wife and son.C. He only sent the man to hospital.D. He did what was needed9. What did Jeffrey think of the encounter with the man at Office Max?A. It was a common routine.B. It was troublesomeC. It was unbelievableD. It was a dangerous situation.10. Why was the man thankful to Jeffrey?A. Jeffrey helped bring up his little sonB. Jeffrey donated to support his family.C. Jeffrey's help gave him the present happy life.D. Jeffrey's kindness taught his son to be a new doctor.11. How did the meeting change Jeffrey's life?A. He was rewarded with much moneyB. He changed his attitude to his job.C. He got a promotion to be a team leader.D. He took up teaching work to train newcomers.DToo much TV-watching can harm children’s ability to learn andeven reduce their chances of getting a college degree, new studies suggest in the latest effort to examine the effects of television on children.One of the studies looked at nearly 400 northern California third-graders. Those with TVs in their bedrooms scored about eight points lower on math and language arts tests than children without bedroom TVs.A second study ,looking at nearly 1000 grown-ups in New Zealand, found lower education levels among 26-year-olds who had watched lots of TV during childhood.But the results don’t prove that TV is the cause and don't ride out that already poorly motivated youngsters (年轻人）may watch lots of TV.Their study measured the TV habits of 26-year-olds between ages5 and 15. These with college degrees had watch an averageof less than two hours of TV per week night during childhood, compared with an average of more than 2.5 hours for those who had no education beyond high school.In the California study, children with TVs in their rooms but no computer at home scored the lowest while those with no bedroom TV but who had home computers scored the highest.While this study does not prove that bedroom TV sets caused the lower scores, it adds to increasing findings that children shouldn't have TVs in their bedrooms.12. According to the California study, the low-scoring group might _________.A. have had computers in their bedroomsB. not be interested in mathC. be unable to go to collegeD. have watched a lot of TV13. What is the researchers' understanding of the New Zealand study results?A. Poorly motivated 26-year-olds watch more TV.B. Habits of TV watching reduce learning interest.C. The connection between TV and education levels is difficult to explain.D. TV watching leads to lower education levels of the 15-year-olds.14. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?A. TV sets shouldn't be allowed in children's bedrooms.B. Children should be forbidden from watching TV.C. More time should be spent on computers.D. Further studies on high-achieving students should be done15. What would be the best title for this text?A. Computers or TelevisionB. Effects of Television on ChildrenC. Studies on TV and College EducationD. Television and Children's Learning Habits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。

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—hired more than 200 participants to test how open monitoring meditation affected how people detect and respond toerrors.The participants, who had never meditated before, were taken through a 20-minute open monitoring meditation exercise while the researchers measured brain activity through electroencephalography (脑电图), or EEG. Then, they completed a computerized distraction (分心) test.“The EEG can measure brain activity at the millisecond level, so we got precise measures of brain activity right after mistakes compared to correct responses,” Lin said. “A certain neural signal occurs about half a second after an error called the error positivity, which is linked to conscious error recognition. We found that the strength of this signal is increased in the meditators to controls.”“These findings show what just 20 minutes of open monitoring meditation can do to improve the brain’s ability to detect and pay attention to mistakes,” Moser said.4. What does the underlined word “altered” in paragraph 2 probably mean?A. Changed.B. Prevented.C. Started.D. Recorded.5. Why is open monitoring meditation different?A.

OMM Can Help You Make Fewer MistakesCHumans have found an easy way to tell if others are lying. Recent research shows that the best way so far is being clever at how you ask questions and listen to the answers.Much of this research is based on the idea that telling a lie is simply harder mental work than telling the truth. Making up a story takes more effort than simply recording something that happened. And like a writer, a liar has to keep all the unreal details in his memory and sound believable when he explains them.One method that seems to work is asking them to tell their story in reverse order. This is harder when the story isn't true and makes it easier for you to tell they are lying. An even more basic way that helps is to just ask more questions, especially unexpected ones. Truth-tellers can easily find more to say, but it's a challenge for a liar to come up with something that's not in his prepared story.Researchers suggest that you shouldn't lay all your cards on the table at the start, but only gradually present what proof you have. The liars' stories may not agree with that proof, making it clear that they're lying.So it looks like there are ways to increase the chances of catching a liar; we've just been basing our methods on the wrong stories. Low-tech ways of causing people to make mistakes in conversation seem to work better than any science about eye movement or machines used to recognize a liar. To find a liar, watch less and listen more.8. Why does the author mention the writer?A. To show it's hard to make up lies.B. To show it's hard to recognise a liar.C. To show writers know liars best.D. To show writers are very clever.9. What do we know about liars?A. They often have much to say.B. They often ask many questions.C. They usually prepare a made-up story.D. They usually feel good about themselves.10. What advice is given to help people catch liars?A. Asking them to set their stories down.B. Presenting your proof one by one.C. Telling different stories to them.D. Letting them ask questions.11. Which can be the best title for the text?A. Why People LieB. How to Stop People LyingC. Low-tech Ways to Find a LiarD. LiarsAre Smarter than ThoughtDWhether for a special holiday, as a way of showing gratitude or just a way of letting someone know you care, gift giving is a universal custom Though the purpose may be similar from place to place, traditions vary widely from one country to the next. A behavior that shows respect in one place might be consideredoffensivesomewhere else. Take a look at unique gifting traditions from around the world.Here in theUS, a set of kitchen knives seems like the perfect gift idea for a wedding. However, in certain European countries likeGermany, people believe that a knife presented as a gift will cut off your friendship. There is a way to break it: Tie a coin to the knife or gift box. The receiver then returns the coin to you as a “payment”to remove the bad luck.There's a well-known Italian wedding tradition where the groom's (新郎) tie is cut into a number of tiny pieces. Wedding guests can then "buy” these tie pieces in exchange for cash. It's a fun way to give money to the new couple thatleaves guests with a wedding souvenir.As left hands are considered unclean in Indian culture, behaviors such as touching, passing money, or giving gifts are to be done with the right hand. Different from some other cultures , an odd number (奇数) of thingsor currency represents good luck. For example, £11 should be given rather than £10.InZimbabwe, it is common to directly ask for a gift. When you receive a gift without asking for it, even if the giver's family is poor, it's the worst way to reject the offering. Also, expressing thanks with actions is better than giving thanks orally (口头地).These may include jumping up and down, dancing, or whistling.12. What does the underlined word “offensive“ in paragraph 1 refer to?A. Rude.B. Creative.C. Suitable.D. Caring.13. How do people prevent friendship breaking down when giving gifts like knives?A. The guests cut the groom's tie into pieces.B. The receiver returns the coin to the giver.C. The giver gives gifts with the right hand.D. The receiver expresses thanks by dancing.14. What can we learn about the gift giving inZimbabwe?A. It is not proper to ask for a gift directly.B. It's better to reject a gift from a poor family.C. One can express thanks by writing letters.D. Showing gratitude with actions is better than words.15. Which can be a suitable title for the text?A. The Wayof Showing GratitudeB. A Fun Behavior to Respect PeopleC. Various Gift Giving TraditionsD.

Hoping to reduce harm, researchersled by Yapei Wang, a Chinese chemist ofRenminUniversity, say they have developed an inexpensive sensor to detect such fires earlier with less effort.Current detection methods rely heavily on human watchfulness, which can delay an effective response. Most wildfires are reported by the general public, and other alerts come from routine foot patrols and watchtower observers. Passing planes and satellites also occasionally spot something, but “the fire first appears on the ground," Wang says. “ When you see the fire from the sky, it is too late. ”The team says its new sensor can be placed near tree trunks' bases and send a wireless signal to a nearby receiver if there is a dramatic temperature increase. That heat also powers the sensor itself, without replacing batteries. The team printed the substances onto ordinary paper to create a sensor for just $ 0.40.But improving coordination among the different agencies involved in firefighting is even more crucial to address, says Graham Kent, an earthquake expert at theUniversityofNevada,Reno, who was not part of the study.Kentis director of ALERTWildfire, a network that uses cameras and crowd sourcing to watch for fires inCalifornia,NevadaandOregon. “The whole way that you respond to a fire until it's put out is like a ballet," he says. “You'd have to choreograph (设计) it just so, with resources precisely used at the right time and place and in the right order from detection to confirmation to assignment to extinguishment (熄灭).Fire detection is just step one.Wang says his team's next steps are to extend the device'ssignal range beyond the current 100 meters, which can limit practical use, and to develop a protective shield for it. The transmitter's effectiveness, he notes, will also need to be examined in the field ahead.4. What does the underlined word “gravity” in paragraph 1 probably mean?A. Pull.B. Extinction.C. Popularity.D. Severity.5. What do we know about the sensor?A. Its price remains high.B. Its batteries are replaceable.C. It can detect fires earlier and easier.D. It can reduce firefighters' pain.6.

Examing and reducing its signal range.D. Getting it on the market ahead of time.CWhere do you find beauty? Fashion Magazines? Music Videos? One American photographer is finding beauty in unexpected places. And a new documentary about his work might help change the traditional standards of “who” is beautiful.Rick Guidotti put aside his career as a fashion photographer to turn his lens to people living with genetic, physical and behavioral differences. He says what changed his perception of beauty was a chance encounter with an albino （白化病）girl.“I was just tired of people telling me who was beautiful. Every season that face would change but I was always told who was beautiful. As an artist, I don't see beauty just on covers of magazines. I see it everywhere. So it was my initial intention that opened my eyes a little wider and wider.” Said Guidotti.Guidotti has created Positive Exposure, a not-for-profit organization that uses photography and video to transform public views and promote a world where differences are celebrated. Guidotti and Positive Exposure are featured in a new documentary called On Beauty.The cast and crew recently hosted a screening at Georgetown University in Washington. One of the women featured in the film is Jayne Waithera. “I never thought I was beautiful because nobody said that to me, but meeting him was my profound moment. I remember that particular day he took my picture and I felt so good like I felt there's somebody who, really loves me and sees me for who I am and who sees me more than my condition.” said Waithera.The documentary is the idea of producer Joanna Rudnick. After seeing Guidotti's photos, she decided to tell his story. Joanna and Guidotti are traveling from city to city to promote On Beauty. “As I travel from community to community, I'm taking photographs and I'm encouraging individuals with a positive sense of who they are. They're seeing beauty in their reflection but I'm also encouraging their families and they in turn are encouraging their communities as well. All is based on the philosophy of change how you see,see how you change.”8. What made Rick change his understanding of beauty?A. A girl diagnosed with albino.B. His job as a fashion photographer.C. The beauty on the covers of magazines.D. Influence from the people working with him.9. What can we infer about Jayne Waithera?A. She showed great interest in taking photos.B. She used to be disappointed at her work and life.C. She was greatly influenced by the experience with Rick.D. She believed Rick was the best photographer in the world.10.

A Different photographer, A Different MagazineDWhere doyou usually put your toothbrush?Do you keep it in the bathroom? How’s your toothbrush lookingthese days? Even if you can’t see it with a naked eye, experts say it may be saturated(使饱和)with millions of toilet germs!Dr. Charles Oerba, a germ expert, is amicrobiology professor at the University of Arizona. He says there are approximately 3 million bacteria per square inch in most toilet bowls, and every time you flush it without closing the lid, those millions of bacteria droplets spray into the air as far as twenty feet away and dirty everything in their path. And a common victim is your poor toothbrush, usually, left out on the bathroom sink, right?So, what do we do? Dr. Gerba says it’s easy. Close the toilet lid before you flush—that’ll greatly cut downthe germs, which will otherwise float in the air. And wash your toothbrush every few days in mouthwash or peroxide to get rid of any germs hiding in it. You can even put it through the dishwasher to sanitize(消毒)it. And always store your toothbrush in a closed cabinet.Here’s one more tip from Dr. Gerba, who says our kitchen sink is probably dirtier than our toilet. “If an alien came from space and studied the bacterial counts, he probably would conclude he should wash his hands in your toilet and go to the bathroom in your sink.” He says that’s because the kitchen sink is a great place where E. coli(大肠杆菌)to live and grow since it’s wet and damp. Bacteria feed on the food that people put down the drain or—that’s left on dishes in the sink. To reset your sink’s bacteria count back to zero, you’d better regularly wash it with hot water and sanitize yoursink with special chemicals. In fact, you may want to do it every day or before preparing dinner.12. What is the purpose of the text?A. To show how to brush your teeth.B. To tell people the importance of health.C. To warn people of the invisible germs.D. To introduce a microbiology professor.13. What can we learn from Paragraph 2?A. Bathroom sinks are the dirtiest places.B. Bacteria are bad for people’s health.C. Why bacteria spread through the air.D. How bacteria spread in the bathroom.14. What does the underlined word“that”in Paragraph 4 refer to?A. The food.B. The toothbrush.C. The sink.D. The chemical.15. Why does Dr. Gerba mention the example of an alien?A. To tell us a fiction story of an alien studying bacteria.B. To show our kitchen sink may be dirtier than our toilet.C. To teach us how to reset sink’s bacteria count back to zero.D. To prove coli prefers to live in the kitchen and the drain.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。
