From inside my flat, I winced (皱起眉头) at the noise my parentswere making as they sorted (分类) bottles and cans(罐子) out on the balcony. I called my 1 in Chinese, “How many do you have this time?” “Eight hundred and six pieces, that’s $40.30!”she answered. I’d been living in my Los Angeles flat for over four years when my parents came for a six-month visit from China. I’d 2 noticed that the bottles and cans they’d collected on the road were worth 5 ce nts (美分) each. When their stay with us ended, I felt free, though I was a supporter of environmental3 in fact.By the time my daughter began school, I was expected to raise money for the school. I felt very stressed(有压力的). How could I work out the problem? 4 , a good idea came across my mind: how about uniting (结合) the two —environmental education and raise money? I joined an organization called LACES. It had 5 1, 600 students, parents and teachers. If my two elderly parents could 6 $300 in six months from recycling (回收), why couldn’t we multiply (乘以) that number by at least 800? My team organized a day for students and parents to 7 bottles and cans directly to school. We 8 it the Green for Green program. The first one raised only $145. But we planned more programs. With each one, the numbers started to look 9 : $145… $400 … $481. The more success we had, the more people 10 our team.Today, LACES teachers keep boxes in their classrooms for bottles and cans. Students collect recyclables and 11 them in boxes. Parents collect at their offices. LACES parents have told me that where they used to see litter, they see 12 . Since the LACES Green for Green program started in 2011, we have raised $15, 500 for the school and recycled about 75, 000 pounds of waste.I believe that our effort(努力) is 13 by the others in the community, and that the result is multiplied. I used to 14 my parents’ recycling project during their visit here. Now I laugh at myself for getting the benefit (益处) from their clever ideas. They may never 15 anyone beyond(超出) their family. However, their small effort has led to big change, one that inspires (激励) family, friends, children, and even strangers.( )1. A. wife B. father C. daughter D. mother( )2. A. seldom B. often C. usually D. always( )3. A. project B. education C. subject D. plan( )4. A. Quickly B. Luckily C. Suddenly D. Sadly( )5.

A. brighter B. higher C. stronger D. wider( )10. A. joined B. knew C. loved D. left( )11. A. send B. move C. throw D. store( )12. A. waste B. bottles C. money D. cans( )13. A. expected B. followed C. achieved D. controlled( )14. A. agree with B. argue with(争论) C. laugh at D. cry at( )15. A. influence(影响) B. help C. educate D. consider三、阅读理解（本题共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）ADifferent vitamins are found in different foods. Then which food should be eaten to keep us healthy? Let’s loo k at some important vitamins for the answer.Vitamin A helps to protect skin(皮肤) from becoming dry. It is also helpful to the eyes.Without vitamin A, you cannot see well in darkness. Vitamin A is found in animal liver(肝脏)and the yellow part of eggs. Sweet potatoes, carrots and other dark-coloured fruit and vegetableshave something that body can change into vitamin A.Vitamin B changes food into energy and helps the heart and nerve system(神经系统) towork smoothly. Without it, we will be weak and will not grow. It is found in grains and otherfoods like beans, nuts, meat and fish.Vitamin B helps to produce red blood cells(红血球). It is found in food like eggs, meat,fish, milk and green vegetables.Vitamin C is needed for strong bone and teeth, and for healthy blood vessels(血管). It alsohelps wounds(伤口) to cure quickly. The body stores little vitamin C, so we must get it everydayin foods like oranges, tomatoes and cabbage.Vitamin D increases the level of calcium(钙) in the blood. Calcium is needed for nerve andmuscle cells to work normally, as well to build strong bones. Fish liver oil has vitamin D. Insome countries, milk producers add vitamin to milk so that it will be good for children.( )1. Without ________, we cannot see well in darkness.A. vitamin AB. vitamin BC. Vitamin CD. Vitamin D( )2.

According to the passage above, which of the following is TRUE?A. We can get vitamins form everything.B. We can live healthily with few vitamins.C. Vitamins are not important to our health.D. Different vitamins help us in different ways.BIt’s a scene in many homes around the world: tired-eyed teens wake to the sound of their alarm clock. Another school day begins, and we all wish we could have just one extra hour of sleep.For lucky high schoo l students in England, they’re now going to reset their alarm and get an extra hour of sleep. Instead of starting school at 9 am, students will begin the school day at 10 am.This is part of a huge study by Oxford University. The experiment(实验) will see whether later classes can improve exam results.More than 100 schools across England will join the four-year experiment, which includes tens of thousands of students. It is based on scientific evidence that teenagers are out of step with traditional school hours.“We know that something funny happens when you’re a teenager,” lead sleep researcher Colin Epsie told The Telegraph. “Your parents think it’s because you’re lazy and everything would be OK if you could get to sleep earlier. But science is telling us that teenagers need to sleep more in the mornings.”Another experiment in 2009 saw an improvement of 19 percent in exam scores for major subjects–such as math and science.Teenagers’ sleep cycles, on average, begin two hours after adults. Neuroscientists (神经科学家) say teens have a built-in clock, which makes them more likely to go to sleep around midnight. As well as not feeling fully awake until between 9 am and 10 am. This body clock stays until the age of 19 for females and 21 for males.Schools are places for learning, as well as education laboratories–finding out the best ways to learn and increase knowledge. Yet we’ll have to wait until 2018 to find out these exciting results!( )6. What does the underlined word “reset” mean in Chinese?A. 重新安装B. 重新组合C. 重新放置D. 重新设定( )7. England high school students usually start school _____.A. at 7 amB. at 8 amC. at 9 amD. at 10 am( )8. Teenagers struggle to get up early because _____.A. they are too lazyB. they stay up late at nightC. their sleep cycles are later than adultsD. their body clock won’t start to work until 19 years old( )9. The purpose of the experiment in 2009 was to _____.A. find out whether later classes can improve exam resultsB. test how students’ body clocks workC. compare teenagers’ and adults’ sleeping patternsD. help teachers to find the best way to teach( )10. The article is focused on the topic that _____.A.teenagers need more sleep than adultsB. students might need more hours’ sleep in the mornin gC. boys need more sleep in the morning than girlsD. it is important to do more experiments on educationCIs your TV connected to the Internet? What about your chair or your fridge? It is possible that they are not. But in the future, most things in your home may be connected, as the so-called "Internet of things" is developing.The Internet of things may be coming sooner than you think. It is reported that during his speech earlier this year, Samsung CEO(首席执行官) BK Yoon spent a lot of time talking about the Internet of things. He said that fiveyears from now, every Samsung product will be part of the Internet of things, whether it's a washing machine or a vacuum cleaner(吸尘器).So, how do household(家用) objects that are part of Internet of things work? Well, think of a usual chair. When connected to the Internet, the chair warms up when it knows that the user has just walked into the room and is feeling cold.An Internet-connected camera, like a smart-home camera, could help people feel safer in their homes. It can recognize(识别) people's faces, and even can see when someone passes by in the dark. Then it can send you a message on your smartphone to let you know who's there. If the person is someone you don't know, it can tell you that, too.But according to MIT Technology Review, whether companies are connecting dog food bowls or security(安全) systems to the Internet, there may be problems. For example, many early connected-home devices(装置) don't have much built-in security, which means they could be hacked(被黑客攻击). In addition, it could be difficult to get these devices to work together because they are made by different companies. To fight this, many companies have joined the Open Interconnect Consortium, which had 45 members by late 2014.So, picture this: you walk in through the front door of your home. The temperature changes to make you feel comfortable after a long day at school. Your favorite music starts playing for you. Do you think that this would be a good thing? It may happen sooner than you think.( )11. The Samsung CEO's speech is mentioned to prove that________.A. the Internet of things will appear in our daily life soonerB. Samsung has produced the Internet of things recentlyC. Samsung products have been part of the Internet of thingsD. he spent a lot of time talking about the Internet of things( )12. We can infer(推断)from paragraphs 3 and 4 that __________.A. the chair can know whether the user feels cold or notB. a usual chair can warm up when it knows the user comes inC. an Internet-connected camera can be used to take photos in the houseD. an Internet-connected camera can be connected to the user's smartphone( )13. According to the passage, it is mentioned that__________.①the temperature inside is neither too high nor too low②your fridge provides the drinks for you ③the chair warms up if you feel cold④your favourite music starts playing ⑤your washing machine starts workingA.①②⑤B.②③④C.①③④D.①④⑤( )14. What's the problem about the Internet of things?A. Companies which produce connected-home devices haven't joined together.B. Connected-home devices may not work together and can easily get hacked.C. Companies have difficulty connecting security system to the Internet.D. These new devices are produced by different companies.( )15. What is the main idea of the passage?A. How to product the Internet of things.B. The introduction to use the Internet of things.C. The way of connecting the Internet of things.D. The Internet of things is coming in the future.第二部分非选择题（共60分）四、词汇（本题共20小题；每小题0.5分，满分10分）1. The company hopes its mobile phone will be successful on the ______________(欧洲)market.2.

How can we solve the problem? Here are some suggestions.First, we are supposed to have good study methods, such as previewing the lessons before class, listening to the teacher carefully in class, taking notes In time，reviewing in time, doing homework on time, correcting mistakes at any time. Then, it's helpful for study to have good health. So we should spend at least an hour (in) exercising our body every day. Besides, we'd better make good use of time. Don't put off what we can do today till tomorrow. We should ask the teacher or classmates for help if we have any questions.If you follow the advice that I have mentioned above, you will be successful.。

From inside my flat, I winced (皱起眉头) at the noise my parentswere making as they sorted (分类) bottles and cans(罐子) out on the balcony. I called my 1 in Chinese, “How many do you have this time?” “Eight hundred and six pieces, that’s $40.30!” she answered. I’d been living in my Los Angeles flat for over four years when my parents came for a six-month visit from China. I’d 2 noticed that the bottles and cans they’d collected on the road were worth 5 cents (美分) each. When their stay with us ended, I felt free, though I was a supporter of environmental3 in fact.By the time my daughter began school, I was expected to raise money for the school. I felt very stressed(有压力的). How could I work out the problem? 4 , a good idea came across my mind: how about uniting (结合) the two — environmental education and raise money? I joined an organization called LACES. It had 5 1, 600 students, parents and teachers. If my two elderly parents could 6 $300 in six months from recycling (回收), why couldn’t we multiply (乘以) that number by at least 800? My team organized a day for students and parents to 7 bottles and cans directly to school. We 8 it the Green for Green program. The first one raised only $145. But we planned more programs. With each one, the numbers started to look 9 : $145… $400 … $481. The more success we had, the more people 10 our team.Today, LACES teachers keep boxes in their classrooms for bottles and cans. Students collect recyclables and 11 them in boxes. Parents collect at their offices. LACES parents have told me that where they used to see litter, they see 12 . Since the LACES Green for Green program started in 2011, we have raised $15, 500 for the school and recycled about 75, 000 pounds of waste.I believe that our effort(努力) is 13 by the others in the community, and that the result is multiplied. I used to 14 my parents’ recycling project during their visit here. Now I laugh at mys elf for getting the benefit (益处) from their clever ideas. They may never 15 anyone beyond(超出) their family. However, their small effort has led to big change, one that inspires (激励) family, friends, children, and even strangers.( )1. A. wife B. father C. daughter D. mother( )2.

Another school day begins, and we all wish we could have just one extra hour of sleep.For lucky high school students in England, they’re now going to reset their alarm and get an extra hour of sleep. Instead of starting school at 9 am, students will begin the school day at 10 am.This is part of a huge study by Oxford University. The experiment(实验) will see whether later classes can improve exam results.More than 100 schools across England will join the four-year experiment, which includes tens of thousands of students. It is based on scientific evidence that teenagers are out of step with traditional school hours.“We know that something funny happens when you’re a teenager,” lead sleep researcher Colin Epsie told The Telegraph. “Your parents think it’s because you’re lazy and everything would be OK if you could get to sleep earlier. But sc ience is telling us that teenagers need to sleep more in the mornings.”Another experiment in 2009 saw an improvement of 19 percent in exam scores for major subjects–such as math and science.Teenagers’ sleep cycles, on average, begin two hours after adult s. Neuroscientists (神经科学家) say teens have a built-in clock, which makes them more likely to go to sleep around midnight. As well as not feeling fully awake until between 9 am and 10 am. This body clock stays until the age of 19 for females and 21 for males.Schools are places for learning, as well as education laboratories–finding out the best ways to learn and increase knowledge. Yet we’ll have to wait until 2018 to find out these exciting results!( )6. What does the underlined word “reset” mean in Chin ese?A. 重新安装B. 重新组合C. 重新放置D. 重新设定( )7. England high school students usually start school _____.A. at 7 amB. at 8 amC. at 9 amD. at 10 am( )8. Teenagers struggle to get up early because _____.A. they are too lazyB. they stay up late at nightC. their sleep cycles are later than adultsD. their body clock won’t start to work until 19 years old( )9. The purpose of the experiment in 2009 was to _____.A. find out whether later classes can improve exam resultsB. test how s tudents’ body clocks workC. compare teenagers’ and adults’ sleeping patternsD. help teachers to find the best way to teach( )10. The article is focused on the topic that _____.A.teenagers need more sleep than adultsB. students might need more hours’ sleep in the morningC. boys need more sleep in the morning than girlsD. it is important to do more experiments on educationCIs your TV connected to the Internet? What about your chair or your fridge? It is possible that they are not. But in the future, most things in your home may be connected, as the so-called "Internet of things" is developing.The Internet of things may be coming sooner than you think. It is reported that during his speech earlier this year, Samsung CEO(首席执行官) BK Yoon spent a lot of time talking about the Internet of things. He said that five years from now, every Samsung product will be part of the Internet of things, whether it's a washing machine or a vacuum cleaner(吸尘器).So, how do household(家用) objects that are part of Internet of things work? Well, think of a usual chair. When connected to the Internet, the chair warms up when it knows that the user has just walked into the room and is feeling cold.An Internet-connected camera, like a smart-home camera, could help people feel safer in their homes. It can recognize(识别) people's faces, and even can see when someone passes by in the dark. Then it can send you a message on your smartphone to let you know who's there. If the person is someone you don't know, it can tell you that, too.But according to MIT Technology Review, whether companies are connecting dog food bowls or security(安全) systems to the Internet, there may be problems. For example, many early connected-home devices(装置) don't have much built-in security, which means they could be hacked(被黑客攻击). In addition, it could be difficult to get these devices to work together because they are made by different companies. To fight this, many companies have joined the Open Interconnect Consortium, which had 45 members by late 2014.So, picture this: you walk in through the front door of your home. The temperature changes to make you feel comfortable after a long day at school. Your favorite music starts playing for you. Do you think that this would be a good thing? It may happen sooner than you think.( )11. The Samsung CEO's speech is mentioned to prove that________.A. the Internet of things will appear in our daily life soonerB. Samsung has produced the Internet of things recentlyC. Samsung products have been part of the Internet of thingsD. he spent a lot of time talking about the Internet of things( )12. We can infer(推断)from paragraphs 3 and 4 that __________.A. the chair can know whether the user feels cold or notB. a usual chair can warm up when it knows the user comes inC. an Internet-connected camera can be used to take photos in the houseD. an Internet-connected camera can be connected to the user's smartphone( )13. According to the passage, it is mentioned that__________.①the temperature inside is neither too high nor too low②your fridge provides the drinks for you ③the chair warms up if you feel cold④your favourite music starts playing ⑤your washing machine starts workingA.①②⑤B.②③④C.①③④D.①④⑤( )14. What's the problem about the Internet of things?A. Companies which produce connected-home devices haven't joined together.B. Connected-home devices may not work together and can easily get hacked.C. Companies have difficulty connecting security system to the Internet.D. These new devices are produced by different companies.( )15. What is the main idea of the passage?A. How to product the Internet of things.B. The introduction to use the Internet of things.C. The way of connecting the Internet of things.D. The Internet of things is coming in the future.第二部分非选择题（共60分）四、词汇（本题共20小题；每小题0.5分，满分10分）1. The company hopes its mobile phone will be successful on the ______________(欧洲)market.2.

But Japan isn’t rich in mineral resources(矿产资源）.It decided to make medals in an environmentally friendly way: by using the metal collected from e-rubbish. This isn’t an easy thing, because, to make all the gold, silver and bronze medals for the 2020 Games, it needs over 30.3 kg of gold,4,100 kg of silver and 2,700 kg of bronze.How does the Tokyo Organizing Committee make it happen? It started the Medal Project and set up collection centers(usually post offices and other public places) across 1,594 cities in Japan. Since April 2017,Japanese people, companies as well as athletes have been encouraged to send e-rubbish, such as old phones, broken cameras and computers to the centers.Although the collection activity came to an end this March, it killed two birds with one stone—people around Japan take part in the preparation work; they now care more about the environment, believing that recycling is a good idea.(No more than five words)76.

They wanted to change this, and because their hobby was boating, they decided to sail round the world together.It took six years to prepare everything for the trip. First, they bought a new boat. Then, both the husband and wife had to take advanced (先进的) sailing lessons and learn all about the sea and the weather. Mr. Spencer also did several courses in repairing engines and Mrs. Spencer spent an hour in a restaurant learning to cut up fish.In October they had one year off from their jobs and sailed away from England with their two children. The next year, in August, their long journey ended in Australia.The boat was not big, but they took a teacher for the children with them. None of them found the trip boring because there were three computers, many CDs, a TV and a DVD player on the boat.The family loved being at the sea and seeing the stars in the sky. But, most of all, Mr. and Mrs. Spencer enjoyed spending time with their children while they were still young.回答下面5个问题，每题答案不超过5个单词。
