AA teenager and his family have been praised as heroes after rescuing five children from a fire. Mathew Robinson, 18, his mother and his father rushed to help when a neighbor’s home went u p in flames. Jackie Robinson, 40, climbed a ladder to pull 12-year-old Tamara Barlow and her 16-month-old brother from their first-floor bedroom. Mathew went up the ladder and into the smoke-filled room to save two more children after their 16-year-old sister Charlotte climbed down.Last night, fire fighters said one or more of the children would almost certainly have died had it not been for the Robinsons. However, Matthew denied they were heroes.He said, “Anyone would have done the same thing. I was in t he right place at the right time.”The fire at the home in Dorset, began around 9:30 p.m. On Sunday night. The Robinsons heard the children’s mother screaming “Get them out”. Matthew rushed through the front door, but was beaten back by flames. After his parents helped three of the children down the ladder, he climbed into the bedroom to get the others.“Being in the room f ull of smoke, it was impossible to see anything. I had to feel my way round the room, trying to find the two kids and get them to make some noise, so I could find out where they were,” he said. “The boys were in a pretty bad state, and almost passed out. They were unable to say anything.”Steve Isaac, station manager at Weymouth Community Fire Station, said, “There was some very, very quick thinking on the part of Matthew and his father Jackie. They showed great bravery and helped save some lives. Normally we would never encourage people to go into a burning building but, on this occasion, it all worked out well.”21.How many children did Matthew’s father save?A. Two.B. Three.C. Four.D. Five.22.What made the Robinsons aware of the fire?A. The flames of the fire.B. The smell of the smoke.C. The sound of the fire alarm.D. The shouts of the children’s mom.23.What’s Steve Isaac’s attitude towards the family’s action?A. Admiring.B. Doubtful.C. Interested.D. Indifferent.BThey have no brains and no spines (脊椎). You can often see right through them. But they can cause painful, sometimes deadly stings (刺伤). Some can even glow in the dark! Scientists know them as medusas, but most people call them jellyfish.Jellyfish are not really fish. Jellyfish have stomachs and mouths, but no heads. They have nervous systems for sensing the world around them. They are made almost entirely of water, which is why you can look through them. Most jellyfish live in salt water, apart from a few types that live in fresh water. Jellyfish are found in oceans and seas all over the world. They live in warm, tropical seas and in ice waters near the North and South Poles.Adult jellyfish are shaped like an open umbrella or a bell. A Jellyfish has tentacles (触须) at the edges of its body. At the center of a jellyfish’s body, where it is widest, is the mouth. The ends of the tentacles have sting cells on them, whichjellyfish use to catch their prey (猎物). Some jellyfish have powerful stings that can kill people.Most jellyfish eat fish, tiny creatures and even other jellyfish. Once a jellyfish stings and catches its prey, it takes the prey to its mouth and swallows it.Some jellyfish are very small, no longer than a marble (弹子). Others are quite large. The largest jellyfish can grow to about 7 feet (about 2 meters) across and weight hundreds of pounds! Jellyfish may be blue, orange, pink, yellow, purple, and other colors.Some jellyfish can glow in the dark by making their own light. The light is made by a chemical reaction inside the jellyfish. Scientists believe jellyfish glow for several reasons. For example, they may glow to attract animals they prey on.24. What is the second paragraph mainly about?A. What jellyfish live on.B. What jellyfish look like.C. How jellyfish move.D. What jellyfish are.25. What is in the center of a jellyfish’s body?A. Its brain.B. Its mouth.C. Its nervous system.D. Its stomach.26. How does a jellyfish catch and eat its prey?A. It stings and catches its prey, then sends it into its mouth to chew it.B. It bites the prey with its mouth, chews it with its teeth and then swallows it.C. It stings the prey with its tentacles and then swallows it directly.D. It tears the prey into small pieces and sends it into its mouth to swallow it.27. What can we learn from the text?A. Some jellyfish can make a person die.B. Most jellyfish live in fresh water.C. Most jellyfish can be planted in the ocean.D. Jellyfish only have five colors.CScience can’t explain the power of pets, but many studies have shown that the company of pets can help lower blood pressure (血压) and raise chances of recovering from a heart attack, reduce loneliness and spread all-round good cheer.Any owner will tell you how much joy a pet brings. For some, an animal provides more comfort than a husband/wife. A 2002 study by Karen Allen of the State University of New York measured stress (紧张) levels and blood pressure in people — half ofthem pet owners — while they performed 5 minutes of mental arithmetic (算术) or held a hand in ice water. Subjects completed the tasks alone, with a husband/wife, a close friend or with a pet. People with pets did it best. Those tested with their animal friends had smaller change in blood pressure and returned most quickly to baseline heart rates. With pets in the room, people also made fewer math mistakes than when doing in front of other companions. It seems people feel more relaxed (放松)around pets, says Allen, who thinks it may be because pets don’t judge.A study reported last fall suggests that having a pet dog not only raises your spirits but may also have an effect on your eating habits. Researchers at Northwestern Memorial Hospital spent a year studying 36 fat people and their equally fat dogs on diet-and-exercise programs; a separate group of 56 people without pets were put on a diet program. On average, people lost about 11 pounds, or 5% of their body weight. Their dogs did even better, losing an average of 12 pounds, more than 15% of their body weight. Dog owners didn’t lose any more weight than those without dogs but, say researchers, got more exercise overall — mostly with their dogs — and found it worth doing.28. What does the text mainly discuss?A. What pets bring to their owners.B. How pets help people calm down.C. People’s opinions of keeping pets.D. Pet’s value in medical research.29. We learn from the text that a person with heart disease has a better chance of getting well if ______.A. he has a pet companionB. he has less stress of workC. he often does mental arithmeticD. he is taken care of by his family30. According to Allen, why did the people do better with pets around when completing stressful tasks?A. They have lower blood pressure.B. They become more patient.C. They are less nervous.D. They are in higher spirits.31. The research mentioned in the last paragraph reports that ______.A. people with dogs did more exerciseB. dogs lost the same weight as people didC. dogs liked exercise much more than people didD. people without dogs found the program unhelpfulDEvery year in America, high-school students who want to go on to college take a national examination called the Scholastic Aptitude Test, or SAT in a shortened way. Their score is an important factor in determining which colleges will admit them. The Scholastic Aptitude Test measures one’s mathematical ability and use of the English language. Traditionally, the English part involved grammatical questions and paragraphs that test reading comprehension.But the SAT folks have added a single question to be answered in an essay, handwritten on the spot. That’s an interesting way to test writi ng ability, but content aside, have you ever seen young people’s handwriting lately? Or anyone’s for that matter, in this age of computer keyboards? Students write numbers and sign their names on bank checks. They scribble class notes in what can generously be described as the written word.Yet today’s kids are asked to write, thoughtfully and clearly, for several minutes on this SAT Test. Good luck to the text scorers who must work out difficultly the scrawl(潦草的笔迹) of young people who’ve been typing on com puters since the age of three! Teachers insist that good handwriting can not only help one’s score on the SAT, but also, later on in life, impress potential employers. And don’t forget, we all have to use handwriting from time to time, as computers go down when the power goes out.Then how to improve the handwriting? Well, with a few simple steps you can improve your handwriting.Position the pen, you should hold the pen between the forefinger and the thumb. You should then rest it near the first knuckle(指节) of the middle finger. The rest of your fingers should be curled(卷曲)under your hand and your hand should remain relaxed.Evaluate your writing. What do you like and what you don’t like about the way you write? Make changes to your letters till you like how they look.Take your time. Make sure that, while you are writing, you take your time. Speed is sure to make your writing messy-looking. If it is worth writing well, then takeyour time.Practice. Practice it a lot; it’s not enough to do it once and ho pe for the best. It has to be something you work at to make great improvements.32. The SAT tests students on _____.A. math, English, reading and writing.B. math, grammar, reading and handwriting.C. math, foreign languages and writing.D. math, foreign languages and handwriting.33. According to the text, good handwriting can_____.A. help students pass the test.B. make a student more popular.C. show students’ ability.D. assist students in getting a job.34. Which of the following should you avoid when improving your handwriting?A. Practicing writing a lot.B. Writing as fast as you can.C. relaxing your hand when holding the pen.D. changing your letters till you like how they look.35. The text is to present the fact that _____.A. writing seems to be very important in the SATB. those who will go to college have to take the SATC. students should practice handwriting more oftenD. kids don’t know how to write in the computer age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。

Spending up to five nights a week on the road can be a lonely business, leaving him with plenty of time to notice his surroundings. “I kept seeing more rubbish everywhere and it was getting on my nerves. I decided I had to do something about it,” he says. One day, he stopped his vehicle, took out a trash bag and started picking up the garbage. The satisfaction after clearing a small area was remarkable.Before his time on the road, Burrows spent over two decades in the military as a vehicle driver. His service saw him stationed throughout Europe and also on tours in Afghanistan. After returning to civilian life, he was diagnosed with PTSD（创伤后应激障碍）and had a mental health crisis in 2017. His involvement in fundraising for Help for Heroes led him to meet a man who used model-building as a distraction from PTSD. Burrows realized that his act of roadside cleanup had a similar calming effect on his mental well-being.By 2019, Burrows had begun using his free time on the road to regularly clean up garbage. A passerby encouraged him to set up a Facebook group, which he called Truckers Cleaning Up Britain. “I was worried I'd be the laughing stock of my town for putting videos and photos up of me cleaning but people started to join,” he says. “I was amazed. The local council stepped in and gave me litter-picking supplies and we're up to almost 3,000 members now.”Since truckers are so often on the move, the Facebook page acts as a means of raising awareness rather than a platform for organizing cleanups. Burrows expressed his intention to continue the cleanup efforts as long as his physical condition allowed, as he still found joy in the process.4. What initially caused Burrows to pick up roadside garbage?A. He wanted to kill time by picking up litter.B. He aimed to raise fund for soldiers with PTSD.C. He felt annoyed to see the increasing rubbish.D. He received the assignment from his employer.5. How did collecting roadside garbage affect Burrows' PTSD?A. It resulted in his embarrassment.B. It increased his sense of isolation.C. It worsened his stress and anxiety.D. It brought him comfort and relief.6. What concerned Burrows when he started Truckers Cleaning Up Britain?A. He feared being teased for his action.B. He was lacking in advanced cleanup tools.C. He was unsure about the group's development.D. He worried about the local council's disapproval.7. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. A Joyful V olunteer ExperienceB. A Trucker's Cleanup InitiativeC. A Fighting Hero against PTSDD. A Platform for EnvironmentalistsCWhen most people think of drones（无人机）, they think of technology and fun. Safe to say, few people would think about farming. However, a group of students from York College of Pennsylvania have been building a drone that will not only help local farmers but the environment, as well.Samantha Gotwalt and Blayde Reich, two senior Mechanical Engineering majors at York College in the group, both found the work to be quite fascinating. According to Samantha, the idea came from a York College professor, who has worked with drones, and wanted to get students involved with a project beneficial to the community. “We really want to help farming and agriculture. I's super-important to America and our economy,” Blayde says. “We want to help the smaller farmers, and one of the perks is not having to spend their money on fertilizer and pesticides（杀虫剂）.”The idea is to design and build a drone that will take video imagery of the fields to determine what is needed to produce the best crop, while saving money and sparing the environment by reducing pollutants in the water runoff . Ideally, that data gained will help the farmers better determine what chemicals they need and what they don't.However, finding the right equipment for the project was a challenge, starting with what drone the team would design for this particular usage. Samantha says she researched durability and control of drones to help make the proper determination.“We are flying over the field and we want to have enough efficiency and go relatively slow enough that our pictures turn out well and fly low enough that it is not using up all of its power,” she says. “The fields are a couple hundred acres（英亩）, so you need your drone to be able to fly the length of that field.”Blayde says the team continues to learn a great deal of information that will help the farmers and the environment.8. What does the underlined word “perks” in paragraph 2 refer to?A. challenges.B. features.C. benefits.D. solutions.9. What particular usage is the drone designed for?A. Spreading proper quantities of pesticides.B. Helping to determine the chemicals needed.C. Assisting to monitor the state of crops.D. Measuring the areas of the fields.10. What technical issue of the drone shall be tackled?A. Its camera capacity.B. Its data collection ability.C. Its durability and control.D. Its material and efficiency.11. What can best describe the students?A. Disciplined and realistic.B. Experienced and reliable.C. Humble and reserved.D. Responsible and creative.DAi-Da sits behind a desk, a paintbrush in her hand. She looks up at the person posing for her, and then back down as she applies another drop of paint onto the canvas（画布）. A lifelike portrait is taking shape. If you didn't know a robot produced it, this portrait could pass as the work of a human artist.Ai-Da produces portraits of sitting subjects using a robotic hand attached to her lifelike figure. She's also able to talk, giving detailed answers to questions about her artistic process and attitudes towards technology. She even gave a TEDx talk titled “The Intersection of Art and AI” in Oxford several years ago. Ai-Da's creators have also been experimenting with having her write and perform her own poetry.But how are we to interpret Ai-Da's output? Should we consider her paintings and poetry original and creative? Are these works actually art?What discussions about AI and creativity often overlook is the fact that creativity isn't an absolute quality that can be defined, measured and reproduced objectively. When we describe an object—for instance, a child's drawing—as being creative, we project our own assumptions about culture onto it. Indeed, art never exists in isolation. It always needs someone to give it “art” status. And the criteria for whether you think something is art are formed by both your expectations and broader cultural conceptions.If we extend this line of thinking to AI, it follows that no Al application or robot can objectively be “creative”. It is always we—humans—that decide whether works created by AI are art.Some may see robot-produced paintings as something coming from creative computers, while others may be skeptical, given the fact that robots act on clear human instructions. In any case, attribution（归属）of creativity never depends on technical arrangement alone—no computer is objectively creative. Rather, the attribution of computational creativity is largely inspired by contexts of reception. Through particular social information, some people are inspired to think of AI output as art, systems as artists, and computers as creators. Therefore, as with any piece of art, your appreciation of AI output ultimately depends on your own interpretation.12. What can we learn about Ai-Da?A. She has a complex many-sided personality.B. She beat others in the debate on art and ALC. She is capable of drawing high-quality portraits.D. She can write poems without being programmed.13. What fact do discussions about AI and creativity often ignore?A. That art is content-based.B. That art can take many forms.C. That creativity is closely related to cultures.D. That creativity is often measured subjectively.14. What idea does the author want to convey in the last paragraph?A. Every coin has two sides.B. Great minds think alike.C. Four eyes see more than two.D. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.15. What would be the best title for the text?A. Is AI-created Art Really Art?B. Will People Accept AI Artists?C. Can We Use Al to Create Portraits?D. Do We Need to Improve AI's Creativity?第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.6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 dining rooms in all big hotels not only serve their guests，but also serve outside diners.Hotel guests have their meals free，so they naturally go to the free dining room to have their meals.The most they would do to show their good faith is to wave their registration cards （登记卡）to the waiter.With such a loose check，you can easily use any old registration card to take a couple of friends free of charge.The Finnish workers are paid by the hour.They are very much on their own as soon as they have agreed with the boss on the rate.From then on they just say how many hours they have worked and they will be paid accordingly（相应地）.With so many loopholes（漏洞）in everyday life，surely Finland must be a heaven to those who love to take pretty advantages.But the strange thing is：all the taxipassengers would always come back to pay their fares after they have attended to their business；not a single outsider has ever been found in the free hotel dining rooms；and workers always give an honest account of the exact hours they put in.As the Finns always act on good faith in everything they do，living in such a society has turned everyone into a real gentleman.4. What does the underlined words "take pretty advantages" in the lastparagraph mean______A. Be ready to help others.B. Make good use of one's friends.C. Be a little ahead of others.D. Gain something at others' expenses.5. According to the passage，the Finnish workers get paid by ______ .A. what they have done for the bossB. their abilities and talentsC. the hour they report to the bossD. the amount of money they want from the boss6. Why are the Finns often considered as real gentlemen？______A. Because they are very rich.B. Because they love to take pretty advantages.C. Because they love work more than money.D. Because they act on good faith in everything.7. Which of the following is the best title for the passage？______A. Life in FinlandB. A society with "foolish"peopleC. What a lifeD. Honest accounts of the FinnsCIndustrial pollution is not only a problem for the countries of Europe and North America but also an extremely serious problem in some developing countries.For these countries，economic growth is a very important aim.They want to introduce industries，and so they put few controls on the industries which cause pollution. Cuba Tao，an industrial town of 85 000 people in Brazil，is an example of the connection between industrial development and pollution.In 1954，Cuba Tao had no industry.Today it has more than twenty large factories，which produce many pollutants（污染物）.The people of the town are suffering from the poisonous matter in their environment and the bad effects can be clearly seen.Birth shortcomings areextremely common.Among children and adults，lung problems are sometimes twelve times more common in Cuba Tao than in other places.It is true that Brazil，like many other countries，has laws against pollution，but these laws are not enforced strictly enough.It is cheaper for companies to take no notice of the laws and pay the fines（罚款）than to buy the expensive equipment that will reduce the pollution.It is clear，therefore，that economic growth is more important to the government than to the health of the workers.However，the responsibility（责任）does not completely lie with the Brazilian government.The example of Cuba Tao shows that international companies are not acting in a responsible way either.A number of the factories in the town are owned by large companies from France，Italy，and the U.S.They are doing things in Brazil that they would not be able to do at home.If they caused the same amount of pollution at home，they would be severely（严厉地）punished or even put out of business.8. Why don't developing countries have strict pollution controls？______A. The new industries they want to introduce do not cause much pollution.B. Pollution is not a serious problem for developing countries.C. They don't realize the balance of nature will be destroyed by some pollutants.D. If they put stricter controls on industry，fewer companies would build newplants in developing countries.9. What is the author's purpose in taking Cuba Tao as an example？______A. To show that industry can develop very fast in developing countries.B. To show that the pollution problem in Brazil is extremely serious.C. To show that industrial growth can cause pollution problems for developingcountries.D. To show that pollution is killing many people and destroying the wholeeconomy of Brazil.10. How is the health of the population of Cuba Tao？______A. There are more heart diseases among people who live near chemicalfactories.B. More people suffer from lung diseases because of poisonous matter.C. Their health is affected by pollutants the same way as that of other Brazilians.D. Babies there are found not as bright as those who live in other places.11. Why do some foreign companies like to set up their plants in Brazil______A. The investment（投资）environment in Brazil is suitable for them.B. They will not be severely punished if they cause pollution in Brazil.C. They can make much money because they do not have to pay Brazilianworkers much.D. They can act in an irresponsible（不负责任的）way in Brazil because there areno pollution laws there.DMy favourite book is The Adventure of Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain.Tom lives with his aunt Polly in a quiet street of St.Petersburg,Missouri.He's a lively and clever young boy,and he finds himself in many exciting adventures.He runs away with his two friends,Huck Finn and Joe,to an island in the middle of the Mississippi River for several days.With Huck he goes looking for treasure,with Becky he gets lost in a cave.And finally,they find a box of gold.My favourite scene in the book is when everyone thinks Tom is dead.He decides to go to his own funeral.He hides and watches for a time and then suddenly he appears.Everyone is astonished to see him but they're also pleased to see him alive. Tom is the hero of the story,but there are other important characters.Huck is an outsider and everyone is afraid of him.Becky is pretty with fair hair.Joe is Tom's best friend.And Injun Joe is the bad man of the story.The theme of the story is about children growing up.It describes how strangers are seen in small towns of America.Finally,it talks about freedom,social rules and how people are punished for bad behaviour.Why do I think The Adventure of Tom Sawyer is a great book？Mark Twain wrote the story in 1876，but it's still read and loved by people all over the world today.And although it's only a story,Twain wrote it in the everyday English of the southern states of America in the 19th century,so it sounds very real.Today it's thought to be one of the greatest books in American literature.Go on-read it!I know you'll enjoy it,too.12. Where does Tom run away with his two friends______A. To a quiet street.B. To a small town.C. To an island.D. To a forest.13. Who is the bad man in the story？______A. Huck Finn.B. Injun Joe.C. Becky.D. Polly.14. How did people feel when Tom appeared at his own funeral？______A. They were surprised and happy.B. They were surprised and sad.C. They were worried and excited.D. They were frightened and happy.15.

He may be an attractive movie star, but there’s more to Josh Duhamel than a pretty face. The 40-year-old actor led a youth charity fun run for the third year running on Sunday, in aid of the Red Cross giving a hand to countries and places suffering natural disasters.Josh sported the charity’s T-shirt and black baseball cap with black jogging bottoms as he joined a group of youngsters in the two-mile effort on Santa Monica Beach. Josh was clearly enjoying himself today, sprinting (冲刺) across the finish line raising both arms in a victory salute.In March last year and January of 2010, Josh led thousands of runners and raised over $200,000 for both Japanese and Haitian earthquake relief efforts. And donations collected at this year’s Youth Run will go towards the American Red Cross PrepareSoCal campaign which helps Southern Californians get ready for disasters.“I do the youth run because I feel that younger people may not be able to donate a lot of money but that doesn’t mean that they can’t contribute and make a difference,” Josh told the Red Cross website. “Bringing students of L. A．together for these events not only raises a lot of money, but also raises the spirits of those affected by any disaster and helps everyone young and old.”Duhamel had won the title of Male Model of the Year in an International Modeling and Talent Association competition in 1997. Duhamel began his acting career as an extra in the music videos for Donna Summer’s song, “I Will Go With You” in 1998.Later that year, he won the role of Leo Pres on the ABC soap opera “All My Children”.

Really small. Their new minirobot has one purpose: to help clean up tiny bits of plastic polluting waterways across the globe.Each new robot is no bigger than the tip of a sharpened pencil. They are magnetic (有磁性的) and shaped like stars. When sunlight hits them, they produce chemical reactions that push them through water in a specific direction. When they find a piece of plastic, they stick to it and start to break it down. When the light goes out, they let go and are free to be used again.“This work is great,” says Douglas Blackiston at Tufts University in Medford, Mass. He’s a biologist who did not work on the project but knows about such devices. He’s been designing robots out of living cells, including some that might help with pollution cleanup.Speaking of the new one, he mentions that, “These robots can eat plastic. They chew it up. Or they can recover it and be collected with a magnet. Scientists love robots with all these capabilities. ”Chemist Martin Pumera at the Czech University of Chemistry and Technology in Prague led the project. He studies ways to build microrobots. About a decade ago, he says, scientists began developing tiny bots that could move themselves in water. Then, they had to find them a mission and thought “Let’s make them do something useful.” Since then, Pumera has focused on the problem posed by microplastics, which are everywhere—from the bottom of the ocean to air blowing onto ice atop mountains. They’ve turned up in drinking water, both bottled and tap water, and some studies estimate that trillions of pieces of plastic end up in the world’s waters. The plastic has many sources, from drinking straws and shopping bags to laundry and cleaning wipes. Plastic doesn’t easily degrade or fall apart, and that’s always been one of its appeals.Pumera says his final goal is to make cheap and environmentally friendly robots that can be used anywhere in the world.8．What do the new robots mainly do?A．To collect tiny bits of plastic in the sea B．To push the pollution in water away C．To help do research into the plastic D．To deal with the plastic in water 9．How do the new robots get powered?A．By stars B．By plastic C．By sunlight D．By living cells 10．Why did Pumera take part in the project?A．Because of public attention to the plasticB．Because of the challenges from the plasticC．Because he was asked to do so by other scientistsD．Because he was inspired by the invention of microrobots11．What is the best title of the article?A．Small robots, big dreams B．No plastic in water anymore! C．Robots, winners against plastic D．The fight between robots and plasticThe masked shrew is one of the smallest mammals(哺乳动物) in North America, only a few inches long. However, it recently made a giant jump. Over the past few decades, the tiny shrew has migrated more than 4,000 feet on both sides of the Rocky Mountains. And it’s notthe only one.Studies in other parts of the world have suggested that mountain animals are climbing higher. Lead study author Christy McCain, an ecologist at the University of Colorado Boulder, and her co-authors Sarah King and Tim Szewezyk wanted to show it is true in the Rockies.The new study looked at 47 different species of small mammals in the Colorado Rocky Mountains. First, the researchers studied the small mammal samples (样本) collected in Colorado over the last few decades and built a database on where these mammals were typically found and how high up. Next, they conducted a series of field surveys in the Colorado Rockies, counting small mammals and recording where each species is found today. They then calculated how much each mammal population has moved over the last few decades.They found that 26 of the 47 species studied had moved upward over time. Masked shrews were among the species with the largest jumps, climbing a total of about 4,500 feet. McCain noted that species with the largest upward jumps tend to share some important characteristics. Most of them are animals specifically adapted to cold weather. 11 of the 47 mammal species actually shifted downward. McCain noted they may be less sensitive to mountain warming. Six species do not appear to have changed at all. And four species have completely disappeared from the mountains in the period between the 1980s and now.“This is the first indication,” McCain said, “that large animal communities are responding to climate change.” The findings are consistent with the conclusions of other studies around the world — that mountain ecosystems are sensitive to climate change and wildlife in these places is already responding to the pressure, both of which can urge humans to change the current situation.12．Why did Christy McCain and her team do the study?A．To collect data of mountain animals.B．To urge humans to change the situation. C．To prove the previous conclusions.D．To assess the effects of climate change. 13．What does the study find about mountain mammals?A．Many species have disappeared.B．None have shifted downward. C．Those going higher are sensitive to cold.D．Many are affected by climate change. 14．What can the findings function as?A．A wake-up call.B．A climate reminder.C．A pressure response.D．A situation changer.15．What’s the main theme of the text?A．Mountain mammals climb higher to beat the heat.B．Cold-adapted species suffer a lot in the Rockies.C．Climate change is making the Rockies unlivable.D．Small mammals are vital to mountain ecosystems.二、七选五Everyone makes mistakes. Mistakes are an essential part of what makes us humans. They are a crucial step in learning, growing, and improving yourself. Not making mistakes islearn from mistakes.Take 100% responsibility. After making a mistake, reflect on it. 17 Only accepting responsibility can make learning possible. Therefore, take 100% responsibility, accept the consequences and be part of the solution to the problem. The sooner you accept responsibility, the sooner the problem is identified, and the sooner a resolution will be possible.Figure out the cause of the mistake. 18 Figuring out the cause will also help you avoid repeating it next time. Determine the specific action that has led to the mistake. Take time to look into the events, see if there are things that need to be improved, and take time to work on them. Make the necessary changes to see the positive results.19 You cannot change the mistakes that were made in the past, but you can take the lesson learnt and apply it when necessary. Don’t move forward through life being afraid of making mistakes. The moment you see mistakes as lessons rather than mistakes, you will no longer have this crazy scare of meeting them along your journey.Apologize if necessary. Apologizing for a mistake you have made, which has affected someone, can make a big difference. By apologizing, you are showing bravery. 20 A．Move on fearlessly.B．You cannot be perfect all the time.C．So make them, learn from them and grow.D．Blaming others for your mistakes will do you no good.E．Making mistakes makes you understand that you are not perfect.F．Knowing why you made the mistake is the key to learning from it.G．That’s because it takes courage to stand before someone and admit your mistake.三、完形填空When I was a boy, there were no smart phones.
